- LinuxBender 5y agoWhen my 23 year old vehicle finally gives in and it gets too expensive to repair I will be getting a side-by-side. [1] Possibly even one that is EV but no internet connections. No fondle-screen. It will cover 99% of my driving needs as I don't even leave this county any more. I see people drive their side-by-sides into town all the time, even the ones that aren't street legal and the troopers don't bat an eye. I will get the street legal version regardless. Maybe in 10+ years if large EV trucks have options for no internet/cellular network connection and no touch screens I might get one. They have a lot of bugs to work out and competition to create.

- LinuxBender 5y agoThankyou! I am currently reading up on these. I've seen a couple old ones in town. I didn't know that heating was an option in some of these that would be a big plus here.

- bambax 5y agoA DIY car is a difficult thing to do, but a DIY ebike is easy and relatively cheap.
- w3news 5y agoIt shouldnt, the concept of an EV is simple, but car companies add to much gadgets. Just look to electric remote toy cars how simple the basics are for an EV. Lets make EV cars just as simple as electric toy cars. Keep it simple, dont make driving gadgets.
- aww_dang 5y agoGood point. It could also become a stepping stone to starting a larger project.
