I don’t want my wife sitting alone at a public charging station.
AMEN Brother.
Ain't that the truth ! There will be charging station crime....
But "men protect women" they say.
yeah sod that. forgetting the safety etc life is too short to sit there .
I don't want ME to do that. But women need something new to be victimized by.
If you are a classic car enthusiast then you don't want a fake car.
Expensive, glorified golf cart.
That's a good way of putting it: EV'S are "fake cars".
No I can't imagine who would have wanted these sad fakes.
EV owners are desperate to justify their biggest mistake of their lifetime: buying an EV.
like they ever need to justify themselves to a bunch of internet cultist buffoons who's only purpose is to make baseless inflammatory nonsense up. Get over your own ego.
Financial disaster when the depreciation hits them
I think that is why they want everyone else to be forced to get one. That way they want feel like such a failure.
You must have money to burn if you buy an EV ....$1200.00 depreciation per month. Thats over $13,000 /year or more.Lose 30% driving away from dealer.Dealer will not trade EV and noone will buy a used EV
@@icedriver2207 liberals are miserable people and their policies are always about spreading their misery to others.
Women HATE the idea of getting stuck on the road in a car. Husband's HATE the idea of their wives/girlfriends getting stuck on the road in a car.
Our neighbours wife just got an EV. She's making panicked phone calls to hubby already about running out of charge! Madness.
By do you think they keep pushing and pushing how reliable they are.
@nunchuckfilms well, no. We know that they have 80% more problems than ICE.
I guess there're still people out there who impulse purchase.
The real problem is getting stuck IN the car when the batteries die.
Agreed. If the problem is simply I forgot to charge, or fuel, the vehicle....consider the solution. I have a gas can handy.....I do not, however, have the ability to recharge an EV battery on the side of the road....jumper cables aren't going to cut it...
As a female, the last thing i want is to be sitting in an EV waiting for it to charge or catch fire
in a dark unlit area.
A filling station has lighting and cctv and it only takes a few miutes to fill a tank and be on your way.
No one is thinking about this side of life with an EV.
stop playing the woke feminist BS. FFS, women are perpetually the victim and want everyone else to fix their issues while men are told to suck it up.
Exactly.
Women need to stop with the perpetual victimhood BS. You think men don't face dangers in the same situation? You also forget it was mostly women pushing this green nonsense. In NYC women are also equal with men in ownership of Tesla vehicles.
You certainly wouldn't want to go to a charge station by yourself at night.
@@my3dviews whats wrong with dark vacant parking lots far removed from anyone within screaming distance?
Water and high voltage electricity what a great combination
Never mind that, water + lithium = massive explosion and fire which fire departments are not equipped to extinguish. Imagine getting a small battery puncture you don't know about and then driving through a puddle and then an entire highway or bus terminal is shut down because nobody can get within 100m of the vehicle. Too many videos of EXACTLY THAT floating around now.
The Cybertruck serves as a boat anchor, not a boat.
It could serve as a submarine; if you don’t care about being able to surface.
It's probably rubbish at that as well.

The "cyber truck" is useless as things other ICE trucks do...Elmo really f__ed this up.
Yea its a mystery lol.
I'm rather suspicious of EV start ups which fail. How much taxpayer money were they gifted and how much did the higher ups pay themselves?
Yup. Likely grants fueled much of their activity.
Democrat donors.
Families of Politicians?
Exactly like the bbbbbilllions Turdeau gave Northvolt and others to bring EV battery companies to Canada, now they are failing due to cancelled orders. You can bet everyone involved made loads of money off of our hard work!
They're fronts like Turkish barbers and those empty vape shops.
Once women lose trust in EVs, it's over. Women make most car purchasing decisions in households.
Woman make most decisions in a relationship, period.
As a woman myself, there's no way I would want get stuck somewhere, either looking for a charging station, or sitting there waiting for the car to charge up. I'll be sticking to my petrol car as long as they keep making them.

5mins at a petrol station with staff for an ICE and no apps required or anywhere upto 2hrs at a charging station with no staff for an ev and numerous apps required so you can charge anywhere.... Where do you think a woman would rather have too spend time???
‘Up to two hours’. If you’re lucky. Many public chargers are not fast chargers.
@@xr6lad I was being kind too ev folk...
Singapore where crime is much lower.
Maybe you would take two hours to figure out how to work the charger. I have never sat longer than 20 minutes.
@@xr6ladAny place that has level 2 chargers is some place you will be staying a whike anyway. Hotels, malls, museums, parks. If it is a spot specific for charging, it will be level 3. So obvious the complaints are being made by people with zero actual EV experience
My wife and I are about to undertake a 2,500-mile roadtrip to move our daughter home from college. We have made this trip many times, and it will take 4 days, with one hotel night in each direction. If we had to rely on an EV, this same trip would take at least 6 days, and we would need at least 4 hotel nights, which adds another $500 to the trip. If you never leave your city, then an EV may work for you, but they are completely useless for long haul trips.
@@markadler8968 My estimate considered all those factors vis-a-vis my own situation. Hotel $150/night and food at $100/day. I work on my laptop, so I never actually miss a day of work. My retired wife does most of the driving, while I am tapping away on the keyboard. However, I did overlook the cat sitter, which is another $25/day!😺 Last year we took a roadtrip to California. Somewhere in the middle of the desert, we stopped for 5 minutes to buy gas. My wife asked, "Is this a Tesla dealership?" The lot was full of Teslas, all waiting for a charging station to open up. It may only take 45 minutes to charge an EV, but that time starts when you plug in. What if you have to wait in line behind 5 other EVs? Interestingly, they did not queue up for a charger like the gas vehicles line up for a pump, so I am not sure how they even determine who goes next. There's probably an app for that:) In any event, it is easy to see how a charging stop could potentially take a few hours, and you cannot predict this in advance. Nowadays, hotel reservations are non-refundable. If you encounter lines at the charging stations, you may not make it to your destination today, thus forfeiting a hotel night. On a very long trip, that could also cause you to lose your next hotel night too! The potential problems are numerous.
Don't forget that they chew through tires 3-4 times or more faster than the average ICE vehicle and the tires cost 3-4 times more than standard tires. From some of the figures I have seen a 2,500 mi road trip would also use about $150- $200 of rubber. 😮
No, it won't. That is 625 miles a day. Most EVs will do that with either 1 or 2 charging stops. And if you pick a hotel with a charger, you will start withba full charge each day. The trip will be a few hours longer, not two days. Stick to topics you actually know something about.
@@HomesickforAlaskaMy sweet fuck you people are full of shit. You can put regular tires on an EV just fine. Most people do after the low rolling resistance OEM tires wear. The wear is maybe 20% faster, not three times and the cost of EV tires is only slightly more than a quality regular tire.
@@TroySavary You should do the same. My neighbor's make the same trip each year in their Tesla, and they budget three days each way, instead of two. Sorry if you got suckered into buying an EV.
Imagine paying 100k for an EV only to have the bright idea to drive it into a river.
Water and electricity has never been a good mix!

Well said!
My TV viewing experience has been that only women of color can drive new cars.
That's the delusional propaganda image we're all sold.
Good spotting! 😁Curiously enough, those same women of colour will also have their 'wives' with them when buying their new EVs. They'll also be tattooed, pierced, living with a (photogenic) physical disability - maybe using a cool carbon-fibre wheelchair - plus: hearing impaired, vegan, menstruating, sight-impaired, and also somewhere on the autistic spectrum.
Gosh, yes, isn't it amazing how the advertisers always manage to find so many utterly normal, typical wimmin [sic] for their campaigns.

Elon Musk has done one hell of a lot very successfully, so that's an idiotic statement. He's done more for space exploration than any one person ever; he builds tunneling machines that are used around the world to connect places separated by water or mountains; he bought Twitter so that we can all speak freely on that once far-left platform.
Though I don't want a Tesla, and don't think EVs are the way forward, it's still the best selling brand of EVs in the world.

Nope.. you don't want a charging station at a petrol station.. imagine the fire risk of an ev going nova

There are thousands of EV chargers at gas stations. Not one has caused the stored gas to explode. But there have been gas stations that exploded with no EV chargers involved.
@@TroySavary Chinese released EV fire statistics: average of 8/day out of 30 million. Fire chief for Shanghai was worried there was 1 EV dealership fire/month. It's not the statistically low numbers, it is the collateral damage he was concerned about.

I take my 86 year old mom to her appointments, we live rural so it is 60 km’s round trip to town and back on winding mountain roads, icy for up to 6 months of the year, Canada, the thought of having to stop and charge in the winter is absolutely a no go, I’m keeping my reliable ICE SUV.
Why would you need to charge during a 60 km round trip? Turns will not drain your batteries faster.
@@TroySavary who knows? I just don’t trust it. I never want to be stuck, there are no chargers on my trip, the closest are in town. Enjoy your EV, If it works for you great.

Why are Tesla owners submerging their trucks in water. Has anyone seen the reaction of Lithium Batteries and Water? Its VERY VOLATILE!
Stop spreading Russian dis-information! Joe Biden says EVs are safe. And reliable. And not prone to issues in regards to water. As long as you drive at night in a desert.
Not to mention that as far as I know, water and electricity are a bad thing to mix. Just shows the nonexistent sense of these ev owners.😂
because they are dumb and wanted to try out the "wade mode"
Proof, if it was needed, of more money than sense.
Good thing there aren't any puddles on roads.
The high number of tv ads for EV’s is inversely proportional to the low number of EV’s being sold here in 🇬🇧
And why the obsession with 0-60 times and top speed. My car is a fast as the inevitable one in front that I am following, get real.
I work at a CDJR dealership, when the taxpayer funded rebates were available we sold a boatload of 4XEs, the vast majority of them I work on have NEVER been charged. Now that the rebates are basically gone we have a lot full of blue tow hooks that aren’t selling and every ICE vehicle we get it is gone almost immediately.

A wet plug in the rain can start a fire if it's on dry grass... comedy gold!
Critical thinker
I suppose if water gets into the plug,a day or so later when it stops raining it can happen.
The big "thing" in Texas if you have a 4X4 pickup is to go mudding. Find a damp field or creek bottom and see how much muck you can throw around. A cybertruck would simply sink to the floorboards because it is so heavy. Then possibly short out.
Yup when I was a teenager in the 70's we used to love "stump jumping" on power line roads, it's basically mudding but adding in seeing how much air we could get over hills. A Cyber Urinal could do it once, maybe.

Emergency use is a prime one too.
Personal story; a year or so ago early in the morning after a long night shift at work I woke to a ringing phone. It was my daughter saying my elderly mother had fallen and possibly has a broken arm. They live 300km away. My wife said “Just go, everything will be alright here.” I threw some stuff in a bag and jumped in my car. Hell. I forgot to fill it the night before when I got home and I had less than a quarter of a tank. However because I own a Mustang and not a Tesla, I just stopped off at the closest service station, filled up in five minutes, and less than three hours later I was pulling into my daughters driveway. Thankfully my mother was ok with just a cracked bone, but at 98 you don’t take chances.
If I’d have owned a Tesla and forgot that I had to “adopt a new driving discipline” and religiously plug it in at every opportunity, I’d have had to wait until the next day probably.
OMG, Cyberstuck is the most entertaining EV!
I saw videos that they are not resistant to cal .50 rounds
Shhh remember never question the agenda and always smile while drinking the kool-aid 🤫
What about the grandmother, that placed her grand daughter in her car seat. She walked around to the other side of the car, and it had locked her out?
Sounds like user error. Any car can lock an idiot out.
The Cybertruck is not licensed in the EU - it would never pass NCAP tests - don't know how anyone can drive one on the road in Slovenia?
Maybe that's why it was trying to swim at the local watering hole 😂
it can be had by certain ways. its not legal to direct sale to consumers in the EU. so there is a huge added cost due to these methods
Shouldn't be allowed ANYWHERE on the grounds of public safety.Don't care about the owners or what happens to them.
"Oh, sorry. The ambulance can't come. It's recharging. You'll just have to do without."
Great reports. Many thanks.
We didn't pay for fast charging so it will be at least 6 hours before we can get to you.
The visit was recalled by patient. He said that he managed to set up his broken leg himself and leg is already healed .
One anecdotal piece of evidence. My local supercharger is the only one in two hundred miles. I'm not exaggerating I looked it up. It is in a run down area of town that I wouldn't care to visit at night. It was obviously put there because the land was inexpensive. The regular chargers that I know of "near by" (about 100 miles) are not any better. This is one reason I don't think EVs can be an answer. If you live in this area and don't have charge at home capability or need to do long trips (which we all do. It is about 200-280 miles to somewhere else) an EV is just a disaster.
Not everyone lives in a third world nation with no infrastructure.
@@TroySavary You should try to leave a city every now and again. This is literally the situation you will find. The idea that America has adequate supercharger coverage is just a myth.
@@joshualandry3160 I can go anywhere in my province or the neighbouring provinces and find a charger close enough to reach. Sure, remote parts of Canada do not have adequate charging, but some remote parts do not have adequate gas stations either. Plan accordingly. But where the majority of the population lives, there are tons of slots to charge.
@@joshualandry3160 You mean he should try to leave mommy's basement every now & then.
Don’t worry. No matter what you say, Troy has done it. I guarantee it. And has a glib answer for it. Like a little child that always has to do one better. Those lines we see, do t exist for him. Those chargers in the open, don’t exist apparently. You are imagining it. In Troy’s world there’s fast chargers everywhere he looks - despite us knowing that’s not the case.

Jim Farley used the word “irregardless” in his recent appearance on the smoking tyre podcast… that’s one cerebral CEO right there.
I drove into town the other day for a hospital appointment - so I went early to make sure I got there. As I drove into the city the traffic was moving normally, then it suddenly stopped.
No movement at all, though cars were coming in the other direction. After sitting there for a few minutes stationary my sat-nav map changed and the road flashed red showing stationary traffic. Nearby roads were also jammed.
Then I heard sirens and people moved their cars aside to let a Police car past. Eventually, traffic started to move - five cars, then stop again for five minutes, though traffic was still flowing reasonably well in the opposite direction. Sat-nav showed there was no point turning off as the city in this area was now completely blocked except for the road out.
When I finally got to the hold-up it was a single electric car sitting in the middle of the road. The hazard warning lights were not flashing. The AA were there, the Police were there, the owner/driver was there. The Police were stopping oncoming traffic and letting a few cars past by stopping oncoming traffic and letting a few of us through.
I wound my window down when I got near to it and was stopped by the Police patrol officer. The AA man was explaining to the owner of the electric car (bog-standard model from a major manufacturer, not Tesla), that he could not move the vehicle because it was completely beyond his ability to repair and there was no power at all, he could not tow it with the vehicle he had and it would need lifted onto a truck with a crane, or towed onto a car transporter with a more powerful winch.
I went hospital, had my appointment late (the specialist consultant agreed to see me in the circumstances), and after treatment, I was able to leave. On the way home, traffic was moving intermittently. When I got to the electric vehicle they had bought a big recovery vehicle usually used for lorries truck to remove it,. but it was still blocking the road. Half of the city was gridlocked. My better half would have a nervous breakdown if that happened to her - she's be mortified and so embarrassed. That's why we have a turbo petrol car. Three minutes to fill the tank, over 400 miles range, and half the price of that broken-down piece of electric car junk.
Imagine if it had broken down on the motorway - the electrics had failed - not even any hazard warming lights.
Our leaders are fools as well.
They're not fools. They're corrupt. All you got to do is follow the money.

Research into the public's attitude to risk consistently demonstrates that people will tolerate many problem occurences if the consequence of that problem is small but they will not tolerate high consequence problems even if they hardly ever happen. This is the principle reason why nuclear power plants are not being built all about. One look at an EV fire and no woman with kids would trust one.

They have the same problem in snow. So they blame the tires now. But good luck finding off-road tires for the cyber truck.
Too much torque at the wheels, probably doesn't matter if you had winter tires. 🤷🏻♀️
@@melissasmess2773 but but their Elon god 'engineer' had them believe that lots of torque is great
Essential considerations! Twice in the last 4 years, once due to a severe Ice storm and sub-zero temperatures that knocked out power for two weeks, I sheltered in my vehicle for about two weeks. For most of the time no fueling stations were unavailable but I had a full tank of fuel and was able to keep warm, sleep in the vehicle and use the vehicle's 12V system to power an AC inverter to keep the home fridge and essential necessities powered.
Before that, during more than year of civil unrest and riots on the U.S., fires that were seemingly deliberately set caused my area to be evacuated due to fire threat and deadly smoke. Power lines were burned-out power lines, and so wide-spread were the fires and viral Lock-downs that no hotels were available on the entire west coast. I was however was able to drive to the coast with power and survivable air and sheltered in that same vehicle for 5 days.
During lock-downs, a friend with an EV on the East coast had to rely on his diesel work truck when charging stations were shutdown for 500 miles. The charging network said it did so without warning for 'upgrades' but many believed it to be politically motivated attack or government experiment, or lock-down measure.
'Electrify America Shuts Down 500-Mile Charging Corridor '- InsideEVs
Sep 8, 2020 It's one of the busiest travel weekends of the year, and many EV owners were left stranded.
Electrify America had shut down every charging station in a 500mi corridor from the middle of Virginia to southern South Carolina... '
As the world enters growing times of civil, political and global unrest options and resources become more important not just for convenience but possibly survival. Personally, rather than spend $100,000 on an electric SUV, I prefer to spend much less than that on a reliable petrol vehicle and generator and a robust off-grid home solar system and now that ev prices are collapsing, an efficient electric vehicle I could charge off a solar or power grid when available and use that vehicle's battery as energy storage or survival trips if fuel becomes unavailable.
My vehicle was also my emergency shelter during the energy crisis 2022/23. Fortunately, nothing happened.
But it could provide heat, cooling and electricity to power my laptop and cellphone. I also put water and food in it.
With a BEV, I would have needed another contingency plan.
@@svr5423 Being without power and fuel seems to be an increasing risk, and even for long term. I never gave into the prepper craze but after those experiences I got a portable 80's 650w Honda Generator with no electronics a 3.2kwh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFE) storage battery bank to to run a used 2500W 12V solar inverter/charger, plus a and a 30amp (450w) 12V charger to charge the battery bank from the 600W generator. I can also charge the LFE battery bank from the 12V system in the car if needed.
That battery bank can keep a home-sized fridge-freezer cold for about a week, and has plenty of power to run a microwave or Instant Pot to cook dried foods like rice and lentils.
If I wasn't hoping to leave the U.S. Id look for some used solar panels you can find for cheap to store in the garage if needed.
I've also got a couple of gasoline camping lamps and gasoline camp stove and a couple of gallons of camping fuel I can run in the stoves or generator.
The obsession with 0-60 mph is a party trick for the real car enthusiast, its the vibe to the drive regardless of the time it takes.
Looks like the cybertruck would be an excellent boat anchor.

When my gas gauge gets to 1/2, I start looking for a gas station. My wife, in contrast, tends to drive until the gas light comes on. At 60 years old, I could not see her adjusting her habits.
In a just world every EVangelist should have to try to explain the not discharging it to less than 20% and not charging it to more than 80% bit to your wife.
When my car cross 600km on the tripcounter, i'll start looking for a gasstation, goes like 668km on a 65 litre fueltank, with 5 litre to spare😁
Great point and I am amazed this it is not brought up more often. So many people that drive their cars until they have only a few miles of range are going to have a big shock when they buy an EV.
I wait until it shows empty with no range left. That means it has around 5l of fuel left in the tank, allowing for a range of 100km if driven economically. That's almost halfway through Switzerland.
@@JoeOvercoatNot being able to charge to 100% is a myth. It is only harmful to stay at 100% for prolonged periods. Charging to 100 then driving will cause no degradation.
Safety while charging is a good one. They dismissively say “just go for a walk when you’re charging, go to a store or a service station and have a coffee.”
Yeah. Not if you’re charging at night. And most are placed away from shops.
What happens when one of these drive by wire vehicles get hacked and the hacker drives YOUR vehicle with you inside at the wheel erratically? Maybe even causes a death?
There is no way I am buying a vehicle that doesn’t have a steering shaft from the steering wheel that I control to the steering box and them to the wheels.
Can an EV drive itself to the Fire Station?
Dependability is a genuine concern.
Considering that you are not even supposed to wash these things in a car wash ….
This isn’t going to end well
Solution to waymo car:
Call waymo, get them to send a representative down to pick it up. Ask that representative for his license - fine him for all the driving offenses plus a distracted/inattentive driving penalty.
Who will work for them after that?
How is the roadside assistant culpable for any of that?
@@carultch Please read the comment.
Not roadside assistance. Waymo representative.
The person who claims to represent Waymo when the car is being picked up should face the penalty. They *represent* the company - they *represent* the car.
The Cybertruck is made for the fans. That's why they cost more than a luxury super sedan.
A Cybertruck can't Even Perform as a Basic Truck.

All EVs capable of self-driving should be fitted with warning lights to tell drivers to get out of their way.
Did anyone notice the massive deal that the main stream media made this week when an internal combustion vehicle caught fire in someone's yard and never mentiones electric vehicle fires or how many more times likely they are to catch fire or how hard it is to put them out????
