Man, saving the planet comes at a real cost. Hopefully it doesn’t one day come at the cost to human life in freezing the death.

If I had shelled out the bank roll it takes to buy a Tesla, and had to have my car towed because I couldn’t simply charge it to get to my destination like a person in a normal vehicle, I have to imagine that I would be kicking myself at some point in time for being duped into buying that thing. I don’t think I’d be feeling too good about myself after that.

People getting charged over $250/month to be able to use EV chargers in their condo building garage in NYC. Negates gas savings for most. Repair costs suck. Charger availability sucks. Many people waking up to the reality, this is not a solution.

ETA: My NYC colleague said adding a mountain bike to a bike rack on his Tesla SUV kills the battery by 40%. Just a bike lol
