I drive a truck but why would I give a shite if someone else drives an electric vehicle? That's like blocking the entrance to Walmart because you prefer Target

I used to have a diesel. That really is a freakin epidemic. The diesel pumps are usually on the ends so you have more room and theres always some fat bitch blocking it while shes inside buying a 68oz coke



I've owned a couple of diesels myself. Sure...the pumps are often blocked...but not for hours at a time. You either wait for one of the pumps to open, or you drive to the next station that carries diesel. Electric car owners don't have the same luxury.

Maybe they were just parking In unoccupied parking spaces and the lil electric car driver saw a chance to become a victim?

For example, it’s going to be -14 here next week. My math, that’s probably a 50% reduction in range. And that means you can’t really go anywhere, because of the range involved.

You drive more than 175 miles round trip daily?

Explain how that is a funny joke. In what circles is this a "running joke"?



Gee, I don’t know, let me think...probably people with diesels.

I’m always at the diesel pump, usually across from another one and half the time one of us waited behind a gas vehicle when there were open pumps. We shake our heads because it’s so damned common.

It’s not a funny joke, it’s an annoying as shite joke but I choose to laugh at it.

Complaining to me that I didn’t see you waiting in line for the diesel pump when you’re in a minivan and there are 6 open gas pumps is so ridiculous it will earn you a mention on Tigerdroppings, though. I hate it that that bothers you.

I'm not going to lie I'm not going back to look at the picture, but after the tax break the tesla is actually very cheap

I almost bought one last December I just could not deal with the lead time

I split my time between Montana and Wyoming. The distances here are much greater.

Yeah this is dumb. Only problem I have with electric vehicles is that they really aren't that viable yet. Gas is pretty cheap and electric cars are more expensive and it cost a lot to replace the batteries.
