Gas prices are projected to stay high through 2022. Now will you buy a Tesla?

[LV426]

I will do all of the above AND I will continue to vote for the candidate who is friendly to the oil and gas industry and convince everyone I can to do the same.

Why?

The oil and gas industry are losers; natural gas is a completely bankrupt energy source that gets less valuable to more you extract it (which is why hundreds of natural gas companies have gone bankrupt since 2015)...and we have no control over the global oil market because our reserves are 1/34th of OPEC's.

So what is this fascination you have with fossil fuel energy sources when they don't even meet our energy needs today, and the companies producing that energy are all going bankrupt?

I almost forgot, with a range of only 320 miles, that's not even a day's driving and will not get me to my in-laws for the holidays. No to Tesla...or electric vehicles of any kind for me.

Well, your gas tank probably only holds about 10 gallons on a car that MAYBE gets 25 MPGs, so you'd have to fill up at least once to get to where you want to go.

So the range of your car is probably less than the range of an electric vehicle.

You mean like California where they have rolling blackouts?

You're confusing CA with TX.

CA hasn't had rolling blackouts this year, but TX sure has...

Can't pull my boat, horse trailer, RV or any other useful thing with a Tesla.

Ummm...so....

Tesla's Model S has 670 HP, while a Ford F150 has between 290 and 450 HP.

So is 670 > or < 450?

 

[LV426]

I'll just vote for the candidate who is for making fuel more affordable who doesn't think everyone should drive a certain kind of vehicle, thank you very much.

The US has no control over the price of fuel, and no US politician or President ever will because the US is 1/34th the size of OPEC in the global oil markets, so any massive action we do over here will be counterbalanced by nominal, incremental action out of Riyadh.

Fuck no I’m not buying a damn Tesla or any other electric vehicle. In fact, I just bought another 5.7L Ram pickup(damn right it’s a hemi). I don’t think even you stupid jackasses think this situation can keep going as is. Another couple of years of 4, 5, and 6 dollar a gal. Gas and I bet the country will impeach the entire democrat party and the sole charge will be gross incompetence.

Which has less horsepower (450) than a Tesla Model S (650), but you do you...

Seems like you caused a lot of problems for yourself by buying a weak ass truck that has less horsepower than an electric sedan.

So you punched yourself in the nuts to own da libs.

You're so fucking stupid, you bought a truck with less horsepower than an electric sedan.

What a fucking loser.

If there was a "laugh" option along with the "Thanks"/"Groan" option I would choose it on your post about towing. Believe me, I have checked into all of the specifics of not just Tesla but of others about towing and none...none within normal price range would do what a normal, half ton Chevy Silverado will do. So it's still no dice. "Owned"???? Hardley so.

And you can call me "Gomer" if you want to. I'm guessing it makes you feel superior. Whatever. I have an uncle by that name who is a really good man.

I rest my case, GOMER!!!

I'm going to have a good laugh at all those right-leaning gas drivers when they try to sell their used gas cars in a few years. They're gonna have to pay a tow truck to tow their cars away for scrap because no one will want them. America will be laughing at them.

Good, because if you did read what I wrote, you'd probably kill yourself.

Gas is $3+ a gallon so these idiots go out and buy gas-guzzling trucks just to complain.

It's hilarious watching them all pretend like they are manly men because of their trucks...which have LESS HORSEPOWER than a freaking Model S sedan.

Musk is going to start releasing his CyberTruck soon which probably will have even MORE horsepower. Those hillbillies probably could afford it if they didn't spend all their money on Bud Lite and Meth.

ICEs are on the way out. They will not be manufactured at all in the near future.

You should. Fuck gas prices. Go buy yourself a Tesla and stop worrying about gas prices. I drive by gas stations and laugh at the people pumping gas.

Charge your car in your garage and give a finger straight up to gas prices. The internal combustion engine is primitive technology. Too many moving parts, woefully inefficient, too much maintenance. I can drive my Tesla more than twice as far as a gas car for the same $$$.

Buy a Tesla. You'll never regret it.

Tell me when you run out of gas on a trip to you walk to the station and get a can of electricity . You forget they are expensive and a lot of people also don't have the money to build their charging stations . They also have some short falls in extreme cold weather and longer trips . O yes wheres your electric come from I bet its mostly produced by oil or natural gas or coal .

WHERE WILL THEY GET THE FUEL FOR THE DIESEL GENERATORS TO CHARGE THEM?

 

[Grokmaster]

Type in charging station on your phone and your zip and a map pops up with all of them. Most electrics get 250 to 300 miles on a charge. If you stop to eat, most places have charging spots. So do places to shop. Stay at a motel and charge overnight. There are 180 charging stations within 30 miles of my home.

NO, "MOST PLACES" DO NOT. NOT EVEN CLOSE. AND THEY USE DIESEL FUEL TO GENERATE ELECTRICITY ,EINSTEIN....
