You are better at keeping your tank filled then. I have range anxiety all the time. Especially when I was younger, I coasted into gas stations on fumes.

I used to drive my dad crazy in my early years because I was always pushing my car to the limit and running out of gas.
He used to say "There's a little gauge on the dash that says F-------E. USE IT!"

I've never been stranded in my EV.

I used to put a few bucks of gas into my Dad's car, not realizing he carefully recorded the gas usage. He started getting over a 100 mpg, and could not figure out why.
 
In recent years, the electric motorcycle market has seen remarkable growth, resulting in an array of options to suit various tastes and budgets -- from sleek urban commuters to versatile adventure bikes. Transitioning to an electric motorcycle offers a host of advantages beyond cost savings, too. There's the obvious benefit of contributing to a greener planet, but you can also expect reduced maintenance and sturdy designs; the benefits are manifold.
As electric motorcycle technology continues to advance, we can also anticipate even more exciting developments on the horizon. Longer battery ranges, faster charging times, and improved performance are just some of the areas where innovation is thriving. Whether you're a seasoned e-bike rider or just making the switch, here are some budget-friendly options.
 
Joey wet panties seems to be having a lot of anxiety over not being able to convince people to buy government cars.
 
Sales of electric vehicles (EVs) in the United States rose by two-thirds in 2022, comprising 5.8 percent of all new vehicles sold. This represents a significant increase from the 3.2 percent market share in 2021. After a decade when most plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) available for sale were sedans and hatchbacks, automakers introduced new electrified truck and SUV models last year. The list of body styles coming in 2023 and beyond is even more varied, and the number of brands introducing their first EV model is also growing.

Too bad they are NOT green. Even the very best emits 31 tons of CO2 over its lifespan.

"Despite emissions from battery production, EVs emit on average less greenhouse gas (GHG) than ICE models. From all the cars tested, the Fiat 500e represents the smallest carbon footprint (31 tons of CO2), while the first ICE car comes in at sixth place with 41 tons: the diesel engined Skoda Octavia 2.0 TDI."

Oh you’re full of shit. I’ve seen the engineering material balances on Tesla 3’s and through their entire life cycle they produce Over 60% less total waste than an ice vehicle of comparable size. That’s soup to nuts less waste and not just emissions, which they produce less to through the total life cycle chain.

Not only that, since they do have far fewer moving parts they require less time, labor, materials, consumables, and a smaller manufacturing footprint and supply chain. Not only that but in many respects they outperform ice vehicles in areas like acceleration times, linear and progressive acceleration and they are more reliable with lower maintenance cost and a lower cost to own throughout the vehicles entire life cycle.

I mean you guys are basing your opinions on the e-vehicles based on your political beliefs and not based on fact. I doubt you’ve ever even driven one. Hell I’ve driven a Tesla S and I’m telling you it can blow a Corvette C7 off the line and beat it in 1/4 drag race.

So is an e-vehicle completely green? No manufactured article is. Is it more green than an ICE vehicle? Absolutely they are and anyone who tells you otherwise is getting their information from a source like Fox News and not the engineers who build the god damned things and don’t know what the hell they are talking about.

I used viable in the sense that they are competitive in the marketplace. During that entire time, they have never gained traction in the market on their own. Today the ONLY reason they are gaining ground is through government meddling / interference in the market. Without that, they would still be failures. Even with heavy handed government subsidies, edicts, mandates, and outright bans of ICE vehicles, EV's remain unpopular even as they are forced on consumers.

I’m sorry but that’s not consistent with the facts. Manufacturers are being incentivized to build e-vehicles by public demand, and by government because they are easier and less complicated to build, are far less wasteful to build, own and operate and have lower capitalization cost, (read more profitable) than ICE vehicles. That’s a demonstrated fact. Electric engines are just far more efficient than ICE engines and that’s not a debatable fact.

ROTFLMAO! Oh ItN, I have to admit I’ve never met anyone as scientifically ignorant as you but you sure do believe in your own nonsense.

As an environmental professional you make me laugh every time you say something. It may not be intentional but you’re the best comedian on JPP. LOL

These MAGA morons like ItN, TA Garbler & bigdog don't care if their EV bullshit isn't true. They've been spewing their far right anti-EV bullshit for years. Just like all their other far right bullshit. They're just a bunch of far right trolls. But thanks for exposing their deceit and disinformation.

Reliance, led by billionaire Mukesh Ambani, displayed removable and swappable batteries for EVs that can also be used to power household appliances through an inverter at a renewable energy exhibition.
The idea is that a person can use one battery for mobility as well as for powering appliances at home, company executives at the event said, requesting not to be quoted as they are not authorized to speak with media.
The batteries can be swapped at Reliance's battery swap stations or re-charged by households using rooftop solar panels, which also it plans to sell, the executives added. The executives did not clarify when the company planned to start selling these batteries.
Development of battery storage solutions is a part of Reliance's bigger $10 billion green push towards clean energy projects. The company aims to cut dependence on its mainstay oil-to-chemical business and be net zero carbon by 2035.
The company acquired two battery companies for about $200 million in 2021 and 2022, respectively -- UK-based Faradion that makes sodium-ion batteries, and Lithium Werks, that produces lithium iron phosphate (LFP)batteries. Reliance displayed LFP chemistry based battery at the exhibition.
A company presentation at the event showed it is also working on customizable batteries for business and individual usage, intelligent swap stations and integrated charging networks. Reliance doesn't plan to get in to EV manufacturing but will partner with EV makers, the presentation showed.
Reliance won an incentive last year to set up a 5 gigawatt hours (GWh) battery manufacturing facility under India's $2.4 billion programme that aims to boost local battery cell production.
The factory will be set up by 2026 and will make batteries and containerised energy storage solutions.
Clean auto technology is central to India's strategy of cutting pollution in major cities and reaching its broader climate goals. Electric vehicles currently make up a fraction of total sales in India mainly due to their high price as the batteries are imported, and a lack of charging infrastructure.

You're probably right. These anti-EV MAGA morons haven't even driven an EV.
But nothing's gonna change their minds. They're truly Blinded by the Right.

No, your lengthy post failed to debunk what I said. And you did not provide any quote or link source.

EVs have led to rainforest destruction and slavery in the Congo, and slave labor in China.
