Quoted from jeffro01:

It's amazing the responses in this thread as it's exactly why it was created. So much misinformation here, so much FUD, it's actually quite hilarious if it weren't so depressing. I can tell you I miss my EV, a lot... I HATE going to gas stations, it's a complete waste of my time. In the 6 years+ I owned an EV I never had to go to the gas station unless I wanted a hot dog or something. Never ran out of electricity, never ran out of battery, always was able to go where I wanted to go. It was great.
It seems to me everyone in this thread that is dumping on EVs has never owned one but are somehow experts. Seems to be a lot of that going around these days, everyone's an expert on everything, just need a few minutes on the toilet and your degree is in the mail... Pathetic.

Ya, it's sad reading some of these posts and it reminds me of what people said about computers and the internet. How sad for the people not wanting to embrace change and enjoying the ride (pun intended).

Quoted from paynemic:

It wasn’t a rant at all. I think you’re cool. Honestly. You make some decent points. My reply is that for some people it’s not about the cheapest way to get around. Or even the cheapest way to haul a pin. I LOVE to drive my Tesla. So quick and so much torque. Same reason for people driving corvettes. It’s not the dollars per mile equation. Smiles per mile perhaps?
And your scenarios in that post were really good. I was giving an overall summary of your posting technique.
