300 miles was almost a full tank of gas for me in my ICE car. If you’re driving that far for that long all at once, you should probably take a half hour to stretch your legs and walk around a little anyways. Or we could improve inter-city train networks so you wouldn’t have to drive at all.
See what I mean? First it’s “you dont need that” and then it’s “you shouldnt drive like that.” The drivers and their wants and needs are the problem, not the lesser products that are being pushed by EV makers.
No thanks. I’ll buy ICE and/or hybrid cars until they make a full EV that meets my wants and needs.
Train networks cost a shit ton of money. Not happening in my corner or travel corridor in the US in my lifetime.
Maybe you should just accept the fact that you have a very unusual driving pattern and understand that general advice doesn’t apply to you specifically.
Most people would be absolutely fine recharging an electric car overnight. If you know that doesn’t apply to you, maybe don’t be so offended when someone says that it’s fine or even better for the average person.
So the problem exists in that you suggest gas should be more expensive. If you scan back, that’s where I jumped into the convo. I jumped into the convo because I inferred that to mean that it would force people into EVs.
Your solution of me shutting the fuck up, continues the conundrum of the would-be consumer just having to adapt their habits to the product.
Most people would be fine in a cloth interior ford fiesta with manual windows and a white exterior. Given the choice, most people choose vehicles that fit their wants and needs. As most people continue to do when it comes to EV adoption.
I prefer a system that allows me to choose which product I want based on my wants and needs, not a system where a lesser product is pushed on the consumer by raising the price on X.
That’s literally how we got to this conversation. Im not offended that you want an authoritarian approach to EV adoption. I object and I think youre wrong, but im not offended by it. And if I inferred incorrectly, please let me know and I will cheerfully withdraw any comments that suggest you had implied that we should raise gas prices to force EV adoption.
