[quote=Anonymous][quote=KeithE][quote]They're not less efficient. Do you work for an oil lobby, or are you just so chuffed and obsessed that it makes you a sad panda? [/quote] Huh, let's compare the price, including production of a gallon of gas as opposed to your "energy free batteries", I think you'll find that per mile cost that the internal combustion engine wins out every time. [quote]The electricity comes from the grid, same place as the electricity that powers that 8j square foot monstrosity you can't afford and don't live in, but aspire to. It eats you up inside, doesn't it, that your house and car aren't large enough to offset your other shortcomings? You're so deprived. We have solar panels too, offsetting quite a bit of the power... AND the main commercial charger I use says it's wind-powered. [/quote] Naw, you plug your Tonka toy into the same power grid like every one else does, it's powered by coal and if your lucky gas. [quote]We have solar panels too, offsetting quite a bit of the power... AND the main commercial charger I use says it's wind-powered. [/quote] And yet, wind is about as efficient as solar (if not less), never mind you need to sell back the energy to your local electric company, and BTW, where did those solar panels get built? Probably China, the most polluting country in the world. [quote]Thing is, when I'm sitting in traffic, I'm not making the air worse. When you're sitting in traffic, you're inwardly weeping for how sad your life has become, while hoping desperately that all the women around you notice your car. [/quote] Yeah, you are, you want zero emission, yet fail to understand basic production principals. You'll crow about 87 miles to the gallon, while ignoring the 35 plants it took to build your battery (look it up) and electrical system (lots of copper as an example), all while thinking youre a friend of the enviorment. [quote]Colbalt and lithium come from South America. Africa. Battery will be recycled at the end of its utility in a car. I don't care ) [/quote] Ah, the same South Africa that is so racist that it's killing White farmers to socialize agriculture? Once the smart people of all colors leave, then where is your battery God? And as I said before, show me where your batteries are being recycled rather than destroyed. And South America? Are you really promoting slave labor wages for your vaginal equivalent of a mood ring? Or do you really think they are getting paid minimum wage? [/quote] Again, tippy. I don't care. I drive my car. I beat you at stop lights. I rarely pay anything at all to charge and I don't have oil to change. I suppose changing oil is one of those tasks you do that makes you feel useful. You might be a little over-invested. Now that your shriveled self is fully exposed, as it were, why don't you slink off to some forum where you can pound your chest and pretend your wife is interested in what you deliver? I am touched you care so much about labor, though! And China, whose current environmental policies put our current environmental policies to shame. But since you think global warming is a myth and believe in rugged individuals (and somehow laughably think you are one), why do you care this much? My car is more fun than your car. Your car is a leaden beast, slow to start, ponderous to turn, and a true reflection of jts owner's overcompensation. [/quote]
