[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to wonder I would routinely pass Teslas on the highway. Now I know that if they go faster, they’d lose range. So not only does it take longer to fill charge than it does to fill up a tank of gas, it will take a Tesla driver longer to drive long distances. Yes, I’m a fast driver and it would eat me up to have to drive slower than I normally do to drive on a long distance trip. That’s insane to me to have to do. Or I’d have to take more charging brakes. Bananas. [/quote]

Your gas car loses range driving fast, too, at highway speeds. You just don't bother thinking about it while you complain about gas prices.

I go father per gallon on the highway and I get to my long distance destinations faster than in an EV. My time is valuable. [/quote]

LOL - if you're time was really that valuable, you wouldn't be driving to long distance destinations. Get over yourself[/quote]

NP. Lol people who value their time don’t drive long distances? Of course they do. They just don’t drive cars that are unable to get them there faster than 55mph or without having to make a gazillion 20-30 minutes stops. [/quote]
