I know why. Which is why I was commenting about Tesla. That other guy was asking why I brought up Tesla, like, did he not even read the article?

Tesla is not Musk.

They are more frequent, meaning you don't need to charge to 100% which isn't even recommended.

Try the supercharger network next time.

If one's towing affected range down to something like 125 miles between charging sessions (not total towing range). One is likely not driving faster than 55 mph, many locations have this speed limit. 55 mph at 125 miles is 2.27 hours of driving. The AHA says take a break from driving after 2...

You're right Ford took nearly $6B back then. Which is worse than Rivian's $6.6B today given inflation and their clear standing as a 100 year old company with plenty of established industry ties. What we get for $6B back then? The Spark EV ?

Yea, demand a vehicle that must get 7 hours of driving without a stop because your ass never needs a break. *The American Heart Association has entered chat* The point is underlying an EV purchase must have efficiency in mind, after all all EVs are more efficient use of resources than ICE...

If you'll notice the article this thread is based on mentions Tesla 8 times and references the Tesla loan in question... What's your point?

Yea we get that you don't like musk, no one does. That's not the point.

There's likely no way the Sierra EV is 2.06 either. And yet it stands 34% more efficient is 34% more efficient. If you told me I could replace my furnace or AC with a 34% drop in efficiency why would I do it? All furnaces and ACs are inherently inefficient compared to a jacket and hand fan ?

The largest battery in a consumer vehicle is supposed to move farther. That's how "more" works. Now if it had the efficiency of Rivian or Tesla it'd move a lot farther. But alas, the POS GM mobile is the worst performer out there. At least it is the fastest EV truck... Oh wait it's the slowest...

One is 2.06 mi/kWh the other is 2.76. 34% more efficient is 34% more efficient.

You're advertising your pride over the least efficient EV truck, on the forum of the most efficient EV truck? ?

Lol ok bud Again, when Biden said that, it was three years before your Sierra EV came out.

If you're referring to the Silverado EV midgate, ok, good for you, you have no room for rear passengers. It's not like it's a magic box on wheels, there's always compromise. The point is, Biden said that when they only had the Bolt in production, and not really because that's when they had the...

$6.6B is 14 times as much as Tesla received. Everyone making a mountain out of a molehill with comparisons.

Harris is neither geriatric nor an idiot.

Northvolt is bankrupt, China is the leader in EVs. Protectionism is the only way to preserve non Chinese EVs. Samsung / Stellantis is going to be interesting to watch. Cell manufacturing in the US needs to include smaller battery form factors as well, stationary and portable. Nearly none...

Why is packing the court funny? Trump's going to screw up so much the US will need some sort of back stop. Why did the Biden admin not move as aggressively before the election? So as not to scare off fically conservative voters. Not sure why that's not obvious. After Harris lost they then...

Yes true, they could have applied earlier. The administration likely did not bat an eye until November 6th.
