My wife and I are retired, and haven't driven farther than 100 miles from our house for many years. For us, th edecision was "yes." We charge in our garage overnight, or even less often. Her car has 250 minles or range and mine has 300. I can't tell the difference in my electric bill. Meanwhile, I have no fuel injection, no muffler, no cooling system, transmission, and probably several other things I don't know about. I have gained a heat pump, but now I have my car producing hot or cool air by the time I get to the end of my driveway. My wife and I like to take long driving trips, plus we both have family 300+ miles out of town. But you’ve got me thinking about a potential second all-electric car. We downsized to a single car that’s a hybrid, so maybe if/when we decide on a second car, we go all electric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Working from home my second car could definitely be electric. The longest I drive it is a 160 mile round trip from flint from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Cowan Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 That's funny, that Tesla is "starting production" today, and could deliver anything, to anybody, on December 1. If they started today I don't think that they could deliver a peanut butter sandwich on December 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motown Bombers Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Full self driving by Tesla was one year away. That was 2016. The Cybertruck was suppose to be on the road by. People paid for Roadsters back in like 2017 and still haven't received them. Elon Musk is a charlatan and grifter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
