>electric cars are shit>they're legit not even environmentally friendly, it's a scam to get you to buy yet another expensive product>you cant even repair them yourself, they're single-use products>they exist so they could track you and get behavioral data>but the world just decided that it's the new thing>they're removing the infrastructure for diesel engine cars because "it's no longer needed, everyone drives electric, this is what people want" Fuck you for buying into this scam. We had a good thing going for almost a century.What will kill the combustion engine is not even the legislation but the fact that society can never cater to two clashing infrastructures at the same time. You can't have a gas station AND an electric station at every corner. it would be incredibly costly, so they will go with the electric station (or whatever you e-fags call it)
>>29145619What if you were to build an electric car yourself?
>>29145619If you did an ICE swap, it would still have these issues.
>>29145622It's probably illegal.(((They))) dont want anyone to be able to repair their own car
>>29145634>(((They))) dont want anyone to be able to repair their own carA car?Even Apple would ideally like to forbid the repair of old iPhones.
>>29145641apple is mega gay, but looking into that case, it wasn't so black and white>Huseby claimed that the screens used original panels and were repaired by replacing the broken glass with glass made by a third party. Apple claimed the panels were made by a third party and that they had not approved placing the Apple logo on the panel. The court agreed with Apple about this.
>>29145619They break even on emissions after a few years of use. They are environmentally friendly.
>>29145619>they're legit not even environmentally friendlyI don't care>you cant even repair them yourself, they're single-use productsYou can't repair most new cars yourself. We both know you're not doing any powertrain repairs on any new GDI turbo CVT etc shit either>they exist so they could track you and get behavioral dataLiterally every new car does this now. >they're removing the infrastructure for diesel engine cars because "it's no longer needed, everyone drives electric, this is what people want"Who gives a shit about diesel. No one in America bought a diesel car in 40 years
>>29145677Only in comparison to combustion cars. Not bicycles or public transport.
>>29145619I would love an electric car I can work on and repair myself that isn't locked down by proprietary firmware. Sadly this doesn't seem to exist.
>>29145619>You can't have a gas station AND an electric station at every corner.Good thing you can just charge at home and only really need charging stations on highways
>Strawman
I like to drive my EV into the gas station just to show off.
>>29145755Most gas stations here have fast chargers.
>>29145721government won't allow it, it's too dangerous
>>29145721this is the one thing that makes me want slate to really succeedall manufacturers should be publishing manuals that detail how to service/repair their products
>you piss Iran off>US collapses>Russia gets pissy>US collapses>Venezuela gets their leader back>US collapsesChina figured that depending on other countries is like signing a slavery contract. With an EV you can just charge your shit on electricity generated by coal/water/wind/oil (lol)/natural gas
>>29145634Theres a process in every state (even commiefornia) to register a home built or kit car.
>>29145677Lol.The environmental damage from lithium mines is off the charts.
>>29146121The lithium mines are nowhere near me so I don't care
>>29145619Haha your loss bro
Just stop being poor lol
>>29145773Where the fuck do you live? They absolutely dont
>they exist so they could track you and get behavioral dataIs this inherent to lithium batteries and electric motors? Should I rip the starter motor out of my brand new gas engine car that comes with OnStar, cellular connection, onboard cameras built in, etc?
>>29146247Its inherent to the nanny bullshit, internet connections the OnStar you mentioned, and anything that sends or receives any kind of signal you fucking tool, a battery wether it's lithium or not along with an electric motor has jack shit to do with a digital signal unless for whatever reason is connected to previous mentioned items for reasons, I've had a exhausting day and I cant tell if youre trolling or not but fuck you, yes rip out your starter out of your car before the Grey's and lizard people triangulate your position you sweaty, fucking neet, bitch made, waste of oxygen you probably fuck your own mom God I hope you die in a cancer fire
>>29146225West Germany
>>29145641F
>>29146327I was being a prick about saying all the tracking bullshit is a feature of nu-cars as a whole and not to get hung up on the powertrain.
>>29145619Yeah, but what about hybrids?
>>29146121I’d much rather there be a big hole in paraguay or wherever than a bunch of smoke and VOCs in my neighborhood.
>>29147414In over 10 years, I have often posted the same as you and none of these guys have EVER even acknowledged my posts like this, I'm glad i'm not going fucking crazy.
>>29145619>electric cars are shitModern cars are shit. Regardless of powertrain>they're legit not even environmentally friendlyWho cares>>you cant even repair them yourself, they're single-use productsAs are most modern cars. EVs aren't all that different from the other vehicles within the same brand family. So repairability varies by brand.>they exist so they could track you and get behavioral dataAGAIN, modern car problems. And manufacturers are getting sued over doing this across multiple models without informing customers about it. On Chevy products you only have to pull the OnStar fuse to disable that data transfer.>but the world just decided that it's the new thingAbloobloo. You're not required to buy one. But you're going to post this type of thread every week forever. Most of your complaints aren't unique to EVs at all.>they're removing the infrastructure for diesel engine cars because...Because nobody makes small diesel engines that can comply with emissions regulations/
Its not even the EV itself, its the gay shit around.Seems like OG manufacturers dont use their senior engineers on EVs and forgot how to design a car.EVs are serviceable if you make them but everyone collectivly decided to make toasters on wheels.No one asked for hidden door handles, the mega touchscreens, 100% touchscreen controlled features, autonomous driving, that stupid yoke wheel. Gullwing doors.They would sell like hot cakes when someone made EVs with Tesla performance, decent interiors which are not just plastic slob, at least not-gay exterior and make them serviceable.
