Reality check on electric cars

You don't get to speak for everyone, Dimlight. Omniscience fallacy.

Your word games won't work, Dimlight.

Right back atcha.

You want your EV? Fine, Just don't use my taxes to pay for, and install chargers all over the country.

They don't burn at all. Ever hear of limelight? You spray flammable gases on a piece of limestone (like a fossil) and light it and it glows spectacularly bright, but doesn't burn the limestone. Today's camp lanterns with the mantle use a similar scheme using a wick impregnated with rare earths instead.

I had not heard of that. Interesting!

 

[Daylight63]

You want your EV?

Yes.

Fine, Just don't use my taxes to pay for, and install chargers all over the country.

So long as you don't use any gasoline for the exact same reason.

Fair is fair. You won't be driving anywhere anytime soon.

It doesn't use limestone (CaCO3). It uses calcium oxide (CaO).

 

[RB 60]

Yes.

Your answer is vague.
I pay taxes on gasoline. Private companies pay for their gas pumps, the installation and the maintenance.

Gasoline is from petroleum. Petroleum companies get some of the largest subsidies of any industry and they are historically some of the most profitable industries on earth.

That's why it is so desperately important that all the earth's economists be wrong when they call them "subsidies". So people like YOU don't feel bad.

No shit! Gasoline is refined from (crude) petroleum. I don't believe you. Show us where oil companies get these huge subsidies you claim.

LOL. You don't have to believe me. But you should believe the earth's economists.


Or not. You are free to be as ignorant of a topic as you wish.

Awwww look who doesn't know how the google machine works.

Can't read MAGA's post

That's because you're dumb as a brick.

Alzheimers has been rough on you, Nicky.

Yes.

Then you can pay the higher taxes for it (since you don't pay gasoline taxes). You can pay the higher insurance for it, since even a minor accident easily totals the car. You can pay the high price for it (2-3 times the cost of a similar gasoline car). You can pay for the higher cost of maintenance of it (special high load tires, dealership only maintenance, etc). All for limited range and utility.

So long as you don't use any gasoline for the exact same reason.

I'll use gasoline. The car is lighter, has much longer range (effectively infinite since it only takes a few minutes to refuel), uses cheaper tires, has cheaper insurance, and has cheaper license taxes. Gasoline isn't subsidized.

Fair is fair. You won't be driving anywhere anytime soon.

I drive anywhere I want. I can drive when the power is out. I can provide my own power with a gasoline generator. I can drive cross country and off road. I can tow heavy loads (a Tesla Model 3 can't even tow an EMPTY utility trailer!).

I'll stick with gasoline and diesel oil.

It uses limestone, Dimlight.

Gasoline is from petroleum.

So are a lot of other products.

Blatant lie (synthesis). Mindless chants from the Church of Green.

and they are historically some of the most profitable industries on earth.

Nope. Farming is. I already know you hate capitalism.

You don't get to speak for everyone. Omniscience fallacy. Void reference fallacy.

Try again, Dimlight.

Google is not a reference. Void reference fallacy.
Answer the question put to you, Dimlight. Stop evading.
