Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Lmao I work on systems intimately related to this stuff, it must be fun being this consistently wrong, because you're hell bent on sticking with it.
What a low-quality mechanic: moving a pack requires a pallet jack, or in a pinch, several furniture dollies from harbor freight, at $30/ea. Lifting into place, several scissor jacks. I mean really, aren't you embarrassed by your lack of creativity? You poor man.
JuSt LoOk iT uP, how embarrassing. Durability of the packs is generally guaranteed for 10yrs of full cycle usage. What's a cycle count as? Full charge to full discharge. How many people do that? It's easy to do on a very small cellular phone battery, you're less likely to feel comfortable doing that on a large vehicle.
The point is, you wear out your pack, the rest of the vehicle keeps running for another decade after pack replacement. The worn out pack is recycled, and new fully capable packs are made using the recycled filtered lithium. Less energy is required overall, by reprocessing a pack, not an entire vehicle.
I don't care Cole. I'll always fight your lack of knowledge and understanding wherever I see you, forever. I enjoy it, and will wear you down with the technical truth, not what the media or your dim friends parrot to you.
Funny, cause if people weren't starting to see what I've been saying, then all the auto manufacturers in the US wouldn't currently be scaling back their EV sales projections.
🤦 got it, moron. None of your points relate to why companies are scaling back, it's been repeated in many different articles at this point: "targeting the small population of wealthy with SUVs and luxury cars is a strategy guaranteed to quickly reach saturation".
Sheesh, try reading a little.
Oh. You must mean trickle down economics. Lol
Lmao dude you are really good at being dumb. Hey, fuck you for dragging the gene pool down.
I'm against trickle down/bull and sparrow economics. I'm saying EVs should be aimed at the working class, not the wealthy class as has been the case.
Funny, you just said it was going to the wealthy. Even those shit boxes nissan are releasing cost $60,000+ if you want a 250+ mile range.
Read the part in quotes more carefully. It's saying that targeting the wealthy with EVs is a bad long term strategy.
