Electric cars?

Is it a good financial decision to buy a electric vehicle in todays economy? Feel like it could be worth it with these gas prices.

Can someone Chevy Boltpill me? Anyone here have one? Can I stack a GM employee discount, the fed rebate and a commifornia rebate. Would this be worth looking into or are they shit?

IAWTP.
Just get a used Prius user, they last forever and you can actually replace the battery yourself (lots of youtube vids showing how). You will save thousands of dollars and have a car that you can drive anywhere, fill up like normal and keep going.

this and don't forget the tax credits you get for buying one, check those out

bolt is ugly and slow. Cheap and solid range though.

Yeah but I don't really care about cars besides the utility of them. A 20k Jap car is a better investment than all of those

>muh gas prices
yeah but I am thinking of getting a new (used) car. there was a 2015 Optima Hybrid for like 8k for sale out in Indiana. Always thought that was a good-looking car.

Current Euro electricity prices make electrics as expensive to run as with using diesel at current prices.

Damn that sucks, not sure what it's like here(California)

Tesla's the only electric car worth buying and they're botnets that won't pay for themselves anyway. Fleets of Teslas that drive themselves will exist in less than five years and rides will cost at least a quarter of Uber prices. Everyone will use it.

Buying electric car= bad financial decision
Buying Tesla stock= spend the profits for future rides
Buying used Toyota= freedom from Tesla rideshare, considered and extravagance in the future

I have one, I like it. Make sure you get one that has fast-charge. Mine only had level-2 charging because it was the base model. It takes at least 10 hours to charge at the fastest.

Bolt is actually quite fast compared to most ICE cars. It does 0-60 in under 6 seconds. This is faster than the old v-8 Camaro I used to own.

HAHAHA
have fun replacing that $50k battery pack in a year

They look nice but at those prices I'd just get a Prius or some Jap car instead

Per unit weight, fossil fuels are still the most energy dense and stable form for the forseeable future. A busted fuel line or injector costs maybe $100 to replace at most. Combustion engine stands on hundreds of years of progress and empirical iteration to get to what we have in modern ICEs. Electrical energy storage has a very long way to go and we will learn very soon that certain countries control the world supply of lithium, just like petroleum.

It doesn't matter how fuel dense it is, if we can't take advantage of

It does matter fucking retard. Energy efficiency is a function of energy density. If a unit of a certain fuel weighed 10 tons nobody would use it.

Imagine driving on the highway in one of these, and you see that big pickup tailgating behind you.
