Tundras live: A Bunch of Idiots And A Bunch of BS- Resume discussion group

Fair point

 

No cap would've been a more appropriate response. I'm kinda disappointed.

 

Why is it the people that have a remote job or even one that requires at maximum 100 miles per day driving are the most anti-EV? I am not even talking about people that tow on weekends or live in extreme climates. The people that go nowhere and even have a second car for venturing beyond they city…

I honestly don’t get it.

 

Fair point

 

Have you been drinking again??

 

Happy Labor Day Weekend. For everyone looking for a new job, good luck. For everyone tired of their old job:

I'll be watching! Been waiting for new episodes ...

 

Because they are independent and do not like being compelled?

 

Speaking of a new poll - What about paddle shifters?

 

great in an F1

in a civilian car….is retarded and counter intuitive

and paddle shifting is just a Starbucks version of an automatic

 

There are 2 kinds of people on this earth

separated by an unnavigable valley

those that like EV


Those that hate EV


Ain’t no middle ground




And there is only one decent EV

all the others are gov mandated slag

 

I actually have a few ripe tomatoes in Rainbow-Unicorn Farms!!! Grew these from seed, got them planted a bit late. Planted some cucumber but those didn’t make it.

Of course, the tomato and zucchini plants are fighting it out with the flower power

 

Ah yes, paying more for a vehicle that wouldn't work as well for our family makes me irrational. I see...

 

Slag. Great description.

Speaking of slag; just saw a commercial for the Hummer EV. $10k off msrp and 0% interest.

Just imagine the amount of Big 3 EVs that will sit and rot very soon

 

The hamfisted approach by government with their mandates turned most people off of the platform. Folks hate being told what to do by bunch of wealthy government officials who haven't worked a real job in decades and act as if we can all throw a fundraiser and suddenly have all the money we need to do whatever we want.

For all of the talk of Capitalism, I rarely see anyone mention Austrian Economics, which should be the underlying basis of Capitalism.

 

I think what he's getting at is when all things are equal people still won't consider an EV

 

The assumption that everyone can go out and buy a new EV is cringey.

 

Again, I'm only talking about when all things are equal.

Someone that only charges at home and doesn't road trip with it and can handle the range loss in cold temps.

I think i know someone in this exact situation.

 

I like my wife’s Rav4 hybrid quite a lot and we didn’t see any reason to go full EV.

We can go anywhere and it’s a good design that will last a really long time.

All it really needs is a 2” lift and bigger tires.

 

Exactly this.
Wifey's next vehicle will be a Toyota/Lexus PHEV.

 

EV's should be significantly cheaper than where they are currently priced at. Electric motors are very simple compared to ICE. The fact that that a basic bitch Corolla or Camry can be had cheaper than an EV makes no sense.

Price em at $15k and folks will buy them in droves. You don't need any mandates or tax rebates or some sleazy clown in a suit to tell you that you have to do it.

I am also aware that the battery is a huge portion of the cost. You don't need lithium ion batteries for every EV out there.

Oh I forgot to mention this last part, make it look like a normal car and not something out of a Sci Fi film. I'm just trying to go to work, not drive the wastelands of the Mad Max multiverse...

 

Yep.
(Big) IF the nationwide infrastructure is there for either truly fast charging, or 5 minute battery swaps, AND cold weather tolerance, I'm on board.

 

The poll: manny’s with peddy’s only. Automated manuals are worse than auto’s with flappy paddles. I dont understand why sxs’s are cvt. If they had a clutch pedal i’d have one.

 

Maybe gas pumps are faster elsewhere but it sites seems like my Tundra takes longer that 5 mins to fill the tank. So I’d go with 10 minute charging for an EV as a sweet spot. Which in my experience 10 mins on a supercharger with a Tesla does provide a good amount of range.

 

Been a few years since I looked but Honda Talons could br had with manual transmissions. Pretty sure the Yamaha sport SxS could as well.
