I think the reason you get threads like this is not necessarily a hatred of EVs. It's the mandates being proposed by the government, and the hypocrisy of EV proponents when they claim they are saving the environment.

Between tires, batteries, and generating electricity for charging, EVs are at best a net neutral vs ICE vehicles

I don’t own an EV, but every time I’m driving behind a vehicle, big or small, belching out black foul smelling bullshite, I hope that EVs replace the fricking lot of them.

From a cost to operate perspective? They’re still cheaper. It’s not a massive gap for normal driving. Fleets are a different story and the ga is larger but it’s not neutral.

Which shows how emotional people are that they can't even place their anger at the right place.
