[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:08 here again.... just reading my WashPost and saw a relevant article on a topic I didn't mention. When we test drove the Y, the sales guy did mention that you could lose a significant portion of your charge if you left your Tesla at the airport parking lot in the cold weather. You could come back from your trip and not have a charge (or not enough to get home). Well, I'm sure you heard about the nightmare on I-95 this week with the snow --- think about being stuck in a traffic jam for 20-30 hrs with an EV...probably not a good situation. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/01/04/imagine-virginias-icy-traffic-catastrophe-with-only-electric-vehicles/[/quote] I feel like you are really stretching here. Everybody ran out of gas on i-95. That's why it took so long to clear so many cars. Also, what are the odds of a rare event happening like this? As for the regenerative braking.. at first it feels a little bit like shifting until you get used to it and learn the points where it's more jerky. But it's a great feature. Fires... Again. The odds are so slim that it's going to spontaneously catch on fire. The benefits of an Eevee far outweigh the se bizarre rare costs. As far as Elon musk, yeah he's an idiot. But Tesla and Ford and all the other companies pushing EVs are doing a service. Bezos is a real jackass too, but I imagine you still order from Amazon.[/quote]
