Evs are great fun toys that I would absolutely recommend to anyone that can afford them and lives in a 2 car household. They are not currently an acceptable replacement for an ICE car in the United States due to infrastructure problems. I would bet we need 10-15 years to get that to an acceptable state
- busterarm 3y agoAfter seeing the damage from a few EV fires, I don't think we're anywhere near proper insurance underwriting of EVs...both for the vehicles themselves and also surrounding property damage. Tbh, I wouldn't want an EV parked anywhere within 500 feet of my house. And seeing $41k dent repair bills for the Rivian or a non-covered Tesla battery replacement for driving in heavy rain...Well, I really don't think the masses are ready. The fact that regulators are pushing so hard for EVs is steering us into a crisis in the near future, I think.
- larperdoodle 3y agoI live in a one car household and it's been perfectly fine, including our yearly roadtrip driving up and around places like Banff in Canada and down the coast to San Francisco. And that's not a Tesla either, it's just with a cheap Chevy Bolt I got for 25k.
