State department hand wringing that China is going to use the US trade agreements as they were designed is
I fully expect them to redo these with “except china” clauses.
The problem with buying a non Tesla EV is that the charging infrastructure is nonexistent. Like you might have one station on a 300 mile stretch and find that it’s out of service when you get there
If you’re only doing local driving it’s a nice little car.
Don’t the manufacturers give adapters now? Maybe that’s only on newer models
Not sure my phev is 2013. My cousin bought a Bolt last year with no adapter. The 2023
Oof, I’d heard things like the Ford truck came with them but I’d suppose maybe that isn’t universal
Agreed … and the problem with buying a Tesla is I want me, my family, and the people around us on the road to stay alive. But in our case local driving is good enough for us.
I have a relative that owns a Tesla Model 3 because there is no other charging infrastructure in his part of the country and he bought before everyone knew Elon was a right wing asshole. He let me drive it a couple times. If you don’t use the self driving, a Tesla drives like any other EV. Though, I wouldn’t get in any Tesla if the driver intended to use the self driving.
Yes… also would be nervous of some OTA update bricking the door latches or some stupid shit like that.
