My car has several levels of regenerative braking, and if I drive conservatively I can get up to 4 miles per kwh, like $0.02 per mile. But it mostly balances out the cost of going up and down hills or stop-and-go driving.
Solar could help but the surface area would only be able to produce enough power to trickle charge.
I am excited to see fuel cell tech take off, and I agree it is a better and more flexible future than battery EVs, but the tech is probably a decade away from being as cheap and efficient as ICE. We might see fuel cell + battery hybrids sooner than that, perhaps.
I live in the city. For my lifestyle, BEV is a perfect fit.
He definitely sleeps on that plane.
So are ICE cars.
Thank you for admitting you got the math wrong. One more: you said $80 to fill your 630mi tank. That works out to around $0.12 per mile as I stated somewhere here. So if I wasn't charging for free, I'd still be spending 1/4 what you do. I can't go 600 miles but I don't need to. I need to commute and get groceries and drive the kids around. I do all of that for basically no fuel cost. And sorry for getting short. The brainless attacks on EV owners here just pisses me off.
Yeah that was my point. I charge at home on solar, but if I was charging against mains, it would be about $0.03 per mile, or about $9 for a full 300mi charge. No gas vehicle can compare with that cost.
I also charge at EA fast chargers, because I get two years of free charging with my car.
Most current model batteries have a life of 300k-400k miles. Get back to me when you have to replace your engine for the same price.
WTF does that have to do with this group?
You can't read apparently. If I weren't charging on solar, it would be $0.08 per kWh and I get 2.5-3 miles per kWh, averaging around $0.03 per mile. There's no way your pickup is even close to that efficient.
Your 630 miles per tank means nothing without a tank size. If you have a 30 gallon tank, that's like 21 mpg, at $3 a gallon, or $0.14 per mile. If the tank is bigger your efficiency is worse than that. Stop making shit up.
We drink the blood of the christ every week.
EV culture has been associated with leftists and liberals in the same way that NASCAR and pickup trucks are associated with the right and conservatives. Hate for EVs here is an attempt to own the libs but never has any real technical merit.
Yeah this is nonsense. People charge at these things for may 15-30 minutes and folks like me that charge at home use less than 1/10 this much power (and I charge from solar so I'm not even on the grid for that). Absurd hate of EVs here all trying to somehow own the libs.
These fast charger stations are way more expensive than charging at home. If I weren't charging for free off solar, I'd pay $0.08 per kWh, about $0.03 per mile. The Electrify America stations near me charge around $0.50 per kWh, raising the cost per mile to around $0.17. I only use these stations because my car came with two years of free charging.
On the other hand, though, a 6-7x markup on electricity is really good for business so they are adding new stations all the time.
I charge mine entirely off solar. Can your gas guzzler do that?
I charge mine at home entirely from renewables and pay almost nothing for it. And even if I didn't the kWh cost per mile versus gasoline is like 3 cents vs 12 cents.
None, of course. Some urban spelunker stitched together a nonsense reel of a Christian daycare and theater for clicks.
Sure, once they launch an attack on the surface go right ahead.
And the auditorium has the word "CHRIST" on the front of the mezzanine. I call bullshit on this whole video.
Holy shit my church has a daycare too. They must be trafficking kids!
I don't contest that. But prices were sky high, no question about it. Maybe it was a manufactured crisis but it was very real for anyone living through it.
Nope, I just asked you what you do believe is truth. There's no question that fuel prices were super high in the 70s, so what is it that you think is untrue?
Did I ever say that? I just said that's what these issues are actually about. It's true.
So tell me... What is the truth in your world? It's easy to just claim that all news is false all of the time, but it's a coward's way out. You're just trading one slanted perspective for another. Be a critical thinker, not a sheep.
Yeah, what is it with these other Trump supporters believing he's done kind of superhuman? There's no way he isn't getting 8-10 hours a day.
