    Had a Eurika moment, why are all the car companies giving into the all electric movement ? It has nothing to do with the environment, its profit

    Electric motors are way simpler than a internal combustion engine and way more reliable.

    What does this mean if you're in the auto industry--less warranty issues and WAY LESS
    ENVIRONMENTAL BULL SHIT , to comply with--this is why they are jumping on board

    My ? is how are the people in TEXAS who are without power able to keep warm in their ice cold Teslas'

    I've never seen anyone in Texas in a Tesla with the exception of a coward ass demorat in Austin. They are not Texan's, they're prune pickers from Commiefornia.

    I have a neighbor who had an electric car, range was 100 miles on a full charge ... His wife took it to work (20 miles ) , she didn't make it and had to have the thing towed back to the dealer which is where it stayed ... He demanded his money back and they gave him a check ... Garbage ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    Another reason , charging is expensive-it costs $22.00 @ a Tesla super charge for a charge that gives you 250 miles

    The liberals in big cities with out garages are going to get the screwing they deserve

    Jaguar going all electric by 2025, Ford in Europe all electric by 2030--no engines & transmissions, talk about profit !!!!

    There're many of them in Tx that move from Cali, bringing their cali ways here. I hope they don't bring their politics too.

    You're absolutely right but non of the Auto companies like to hear how expensive it is to recharge these cars and how expensive it is to maintain it. If fossil fuel engine car has no issues with the environment and electric cars got nothing to do with it too then why the change....Don't try to fix it if its not broken.

    Battery replacement is extremely expensive. There is no way this country can go green for our everyday uses and transportation. Texas just found out how well solar and wind work. California can't keep their folks in power now. Rolling blackout and such. Obama closed a bunch of coal fired plants when he was in office. He was such an idiot. Technology of today won't support green energy. Coal , gas & hydro electric is the way to go imo. Nuclear is problematic due to nuclear waste storage. That stuff is very bad & long lasting. We are just 1 player in the worlds supposed climate change.

    To me, There's no such thing as going green, its a democrats dream that won't come through. I'd rather be invested in a cleaner and sustainable energy source. Fossil fuel all the way.
