The only trouble I have with my own car is having to replace the 12V battery pretty often but it's because of the lack of car usage as I work from home and hardly been going anywhere the last couple of years due to the pandemic. And when I do it's a very short journey. But it's only 100-130 bucks to replace the battery.

There is a device out there that will disconnect the battery if the voltage drops close to low enough to start damaging the battery. I was looking into it as I had a Jag that would kill the battery if it was left to sit for about three weeks.

Alternatively, I have a device that I built that will report the battery voltage over wifi. You could set things up so you would get alerts if the battery voltage dropped too low. I've only done preliminary testing so far but haven't tested in in action as I no longer have the Jag and the VW will go for many months without draining the battery.

This is the big problem with electric cars: Once the powertrain warranty is out, the value of the car is pretty much zero. Gas engines can go 200k miles and can be fixed without a full replacement.

I remember in 2005 the roads were full of Gen 1 Priuses. Then they started to just disappear, and now I doubt anyone has seem one in years. Why? Battery pack blowing out and while you can swap it for a couple of thousand, most people just junked em.

It's a problem.

Not to defend Tesla here - horrible build quality and Musk is a smug asshole - but their batteries can last 200k-300k, I've seen quite a few with that mileage. And Model S is supposedly a luxury car that can do 0-60 in like 4 seconds, so that $22k should be compared to maybe M5 or E63 engine replacement? Plus there are battery repair options available, just not in Finland apparently.

Anyway, we're at peak dinosaur juice technology, and electric stuff will only get better.

Edit - grammar.

... for those of us using Dark Reader

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!  I have been meaning to search for one of these.  Particularly for this forum... Ahhhh. So much better.

Yes! It turns the SMF plain vanilla boring-as-hell look into a work of art!

And it's open-source and well respected.

Edit: For BitcoinTalk, I recommend using Dark Reader's "Filter+" option in "More" tab, and also set your site magnification to 170% in the browser (I'm using Firefox). You will transform BitcoinTalk into a beautiful browsing experience -- your eyes will thank you for it.

I think there are quite a few draw backs with electric cars indeed the more I've been thinking about them.

My mid size SUV is coming up to 6 years old. Only done 30K miles. Can probably go for another 6 years without too much bother but I'm not sure you'd want to do that with an electric car (can it even run for 12 years and if it can what will the value be?).
Only now looking at replacing the original tyres by the way which is pretty excellent.
Again with an electric car you would need to replace them far sooner due to battery weight plus your ride won't be as comfortable.

Why they shove 20-21 inch wheels on a Tesla seems bizarre to me. Just asking for blow outs surely.

The only trouble I have with my own car is having to replace the 12V battery pretty often but it's because of the lack of car usage as I work from home and hardly been going anywhere the last couple of years due to the pandemic. And when I do it's a very short journey. But it's only 100-130 bucks to replace the battery.

I was also surprised to read Teslas still have 12V batteries in addition to the large battery packs as well and have in fact also been problematic for people often not lasting the 3-5 years at all.
I'm glad I found out about that as I thought it would be one worry less when switching to EV but it's not at all.

I guess Teslas need very little maintenance but the extra cost of actually buying the damn thing doesn't really offset that so much.

I'm thinking of holding off for another 5 years before making a switch to EV. Let the market be a bit more competitive. At the moment it seems quite messy.

Ingenious.
Blow up an aging Tesla with a dud battery, post it on You Tube and use the funds generated from almost 3 million views to buy a new one.
(or whatever, you get the concept)

And speaking of blowing things up, like a "starship" landing , Elon would be proud...
