That is already true in a few places. The price of electricity varies more than does gasoline.
So those two MH's you own don't pollute?
If there were decent E-RVs with reasonable charging E-RV infrastructure, I would own such instead of my gas rigs.
Regardless, you have a choice, if you're driving around in a MH it's you and not the "polluting oil company" to blame for your vehicle's emissions.
What choice? How can I drive what does not yet exist?
Depends on the cars. Compare a Rolls Royce with a Nissan Leaf and see how much you will save.Oh dear. If gas hits $8 a gallon it means I can only drive 100,000 miles instead of 200,000 before recouping the extra cost of an electric car.
Economics 101: Used Teslas are cheap because for whatever reason people aren't buying Teslas. You can get a good deal on a VCR too.Depends on the cars. Compare a Rolls Royce with a Nissan Leaf and see how much you will save.
EVs and ICE are probably very close to the same price these days, with used Teslas probably being even cheaper than many used ICE cars.
But I never thought trying to save money was a good reason to go with an EV.
The tremendous torque of EVs would be one good reason, IMO. Especially when they start having E-motorhomes with a >500-mile range with a decent charging infrastructure. Not there yet, but I assume soon will be.

Yep, I have said so myself. I am too old to see it happen.
If your expectations were Tesla's would not depreciate at a rate faster than than the Edsel, consider your expectations beaten. Tesla's are losing value because they're not worth much, ie., no one is buying. That's how this works. Used car dealers say the auction yards are overstocked with Tesla's and they're getting calls everyday from people trying to unload Tesla's. Too much supply and no demand.
Yep, and mostly for very stupid reasons, making this a great time to buy a used Tesla.
If they're a great buy they wouldn't be going unsold. Sales of Tesla's are bad here and even worse in the EU. I'm pretty sure Tesla's 15 minutes is up.Yep, and mostly for very stupid reasons, making this a great time to buy a used Tesla.
When will you buy yours?

A big part of the poor sales is the CEO who many people hate. Has nothing to do with the car. Other reasons are because we are now flooded with used Teslas. Other reasons too, such as Hertz dumping a lot of them.
No, I'd first need to undergo about 6 weeks of intensive intelligence reduction therapy.Are you going to now rush out and buy yourself a used Tesla?

You wouldn't be reading these EV threads if you didn't have some interest.
I thought we were trying to keep politics out of posts.
