The EV Hate Thread

Not sure where I am missing point here. The real world pricing for insurance i shared was from Edmond Oklahoma. I also mentioned here in Dallas mine was almost 3x as much.
Not sure about the Tampon Torpedoes mentioned here.
As for the "bother my insurance person". Haha so funny. Shoot an email, receive a price. They do this for a living. If you have a good relationship, be up front about it. I just want to know how much it would cost to insure this Tesla. I personally will get either the Hyundai Ioniq 9 or Kia EV9. Weekend getaway on camping or fishing trips with my young kids outdoors. Teach them all things, real world experiences. While powering a heater or AC with the onboard batteries.
Trust me, I am locked and loaded and my kids know how to use it as well.
Once again, I am not a global warming fearing type of person. I love my fossil fuels. I also like trying out other things.
So. Reach out to your agent, post back what rates are for your location.
Cheers

Much love brother. Haha. Munitions.
I understand the EV Hate. It is it the EV itself but the gospel following, blinded by the wrong reasons.
For instance. All the reviewers for EV that takes a cross country trip. First, that is what they do for a living, not constrained by time. For a family, mine for instance, if I took a cross country trip for one week, much of that time is spent on charging the EV.
Which leads to my next point. Many charging stations do not charge as advertised. It takes a heck lot longer. I would rather fuel up and go along my way.
For me. A trip within a couple hours to cabins , lakes, camp grounds works great for an EV.
Anything longer would require a much longer than one week vacation.
It is not EV that I hate, it is the blind followers that spew the nonsense that are destroying it.
Cheers all. -
Me thinks that most of the hate came from the mandate.
Let's be honest with ourselves.
EV's are great for some. They supposedly help the planet, for those who care about that. They can and do serve a purpose in certain instances.
Take those instances and try to sell that to many other folks who travel and haul, then see what the responses are.....but please omit the curse words during playback.
I really do think it was the mandate. "Moving forward" should not include force. American's like options and this little ol' thing called freedom. Freedom to roam. Freedom to choose and freedom from tyranny. It is, after all, how this country was formed to begin with.
