It'll get more interesting when Hertz gets a customer--say a regular--that says something to the effect of, "I can't use a Tesla as it requires an app on a smartphone to operate it, and I don't have a smartphone..." Now what?
 
Rightys have a new scare story every day. The other rights immediately accept the story. In balmy,warm Norway, 80 percent of cars sold this year were EVs. They are accepting the future and are happy about it.
 
hey moron - leaning libertarian does not mean I don't have borders

I get it though - when someone is as retarded as you - you can only argue the retarded bullshit that goes on in your own brain

having borders isnt enough.

they need to be defended so as to NOT GLUT THE LABOR POOL.

are you for that?
 
What a nightmare. I bet they were pissed at Hertz for renting them that POS. A car that would do that to you in freezing weather is DANGEROUS.

Well, Teslas are giant pieces of shit, so this is no surprise.

You don't hear the same things about the Leaf or the Bolt.

Maybe stop renting Tesla's since they're such giant pieces of shit.

You don't hear any of these complaints from Leaf, Bolt, or EV Prius owners.
 
Tesla has the highest customer satisfaction ratings of any car, EV or old-fashioned gasoline. Not bad for pieces of shit.
 
usually you don't have borders and not defend them either.

globalists don't give a shit. borders are an annoyance to multinational corporations.

and how is that this is the thread for you to rant about such things? You just trigged by libertarians so much that you stop discussing subjects?
 
I would need full details because this sounds like bad charging decisions or lying. Perhaps there are still so few chargers on the route that they had to do this, but I doubt it.
 
A brother and sister had to stop 6 times in 1 day to charge their rented Tesla in cold weather because the battery drained so quickly

A brother and sister rented a Tesla and found they had to stop six times in one day to charge it.
Xaviar Steavenson and his sister Alice drove from Orlando, Florida to Wichita, Kansas.

They said other customers with rented Teslas had called Hertz with similar charging problems.Xaviar and Alice Steavenson wanted to find out what it's like to drive a Tesla, so they rented one from Hertz for a road trip from Orlando, Florida to Wichita, Kansas.

They knew that the electric car would need charging en route, but what the siblings did not expect was just how often they'd need to plug it in.

They realized it would take longer to charge the car after the weather turned so cold in late December.

However, it got to the point that the "battery would drain faster than it would charge," Xaviar told Insider.

When they set off they could drive for at least two and a half hours before needing to charge the Tesla. "We ended up having to stop every one to one and a half hours to charge for an hour, then an hour and a half, then two hours," he said.

"So beyond the lost time, it also got to the point it was between $25 and $30 to recharge. Just in one day, we stopped six times to charge at that cost," Xaviar said.


Hertz said on its website that renting a Tesla was "always cheaper than gas," according to Xaviar, but he said that claim was far from the truth.

The first time the siblings called Hertz, Xaviar said the agent told him he'd had "had nothing but Tesla calls today – I have no idea why they're having issues."

Lie.

How many miles between the two points?

How much gas would they need in a car that averages 20-25 mpg?


And the kicker...HOW FUCKING COLD COULD IT HAVE BEEN IF THEY STARTED IN FLORIDA?
