What happens when the batteries go bad it stay losing their range. Buy a cell phone the battery lasts 2 days, 6 mts. later you have to charge twice a day. Batteries suffer with every discharge/charge cycle. Blow a gas motor, replace for 5k. Blow your batteries who's putting in 20k into a 6+ year old vehicle? What happens to all the old EV's? They will become worthless because of battery replacement costs. Not to mention millions of mechanics out of a job and millions of diyers that can't afford to pay for maintenance or issues. Friend had his Tesla totaled for a small fender bender because they said it potentially caused damage to the battery. Auto insurance only covered him for a portion of the purchase price, want his fault, rear-ended. Corporate greed is the only one winning. Trying to get control of everyone by switching to electric meanwhile city council is telling me to limit ac usage during 100° days because the grid cannot handle it. Wtf? What am I missing?

@@juiced66lac first EV batteries don't "go bad" like disposable AA's or laptop batteries after 5 years. EV batteries are thermally controlled and normally last the lifetime of the car of 300,000 to 400,000 miles with only a small loss of range. Second, the battery systems of EV's are modular and can be reconditioned or repaired component by component if ever needed. If the battery control module detects a fault in module 5 for example, the module is taken offline and can be replaced for $600-$1200. Third, they can be recycled.

So true. There was a powerful movement against the adoption of gasoline (ICE) vehicles. In the earliest days they were unreliable, very hard to start, hard to find places to refuel them, very expensive and often referred to as toys for rich kids (sound familiar?). The gasoline vehicle was a serious threat to several large and well-established industries like veterinarian services, feed, grain and hay providers, blacksmiths, leather goods industry, buggy and cart makers, etc... These industries went to war with the internal combustion engine which they often referred to as "that infernal gasoline engine". Despite the fact that they were noisy, smelly and generally filthy machines, gasoline vehicles were cleaner than employing beasts of burden. Americans, especially those living in cities or towns, have largely forgotten what it was like to have their locations visited each day by hundreds, if not thousands of horses and or oxen. They've forgotten the literal TONS of manure that had to be removed from city streets and moved to collection areas. They've forgotten the fecal matter and 10's of thousands of gallons of animal urine that collected in storm drains creating breeding grounds for infectious diseases like Cholera, Hepatitis and Dysentery among others. They've forgotten the pervasive stench associated with using beasts of burden especially the corpses of those animals that died everyday. Now it's the internal combustion engines turn to come under the microscope and take its turn in the proverbial barrel.

In the shutdown area, he indicated he wanted to talk, so we went into the pit. He came over, with helmet in hand, and asked: "What kind of Tesla IS this?" He hadn't heard about the Plaid. The Plaids are pure lunacy. I'm 77, and this is a bucket list thing for me. This is the kind of car I wanted when I was 16 but dad said: "ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY? NO!!!" So much for daddy. 🤣

@@EleTruk I drag race at Willow Springs in my Plaid. A track official actually asked me to stay at the starting line until the other guy is far enough down the 1,000-foot strip, so when I go it will be close at the finish. I normally do that now ... unless my opponent shows up on a trailer and has wheelie bars, or unless my opponent is another Plaid, in which case I go full out on the green. Exception to the trailer thing: I shoot a lot of video from the starting line and keep an eye on the starter's laptop. If I know the trailered car is slower, I'll give him the hit when I leave the starting line and take my turn. :)

Sad watching people try to make expensive ICE vehicles do what they really aren't designed to do. Making a high-performance ICE vehicle "hook-up" like that will never be conducive to long life. A nine second or faster ICE vehicle has to push huge torque and Hp numbers through a drivetrain that includes a multi-speed transmission and differential. The design of which will never be as robust as that of an EV especially in a production car. To keep a nine second or faster ICE vehicle track ready every week will require a team of mechanics and an owner with deep pockets. That Tesla can drag race 15 times everyday, 365 days a year for several years and never need to open the hood. LOL, you'd be lucky to get through one weekend of drag racing with a high-performance ICE without needing to repair or replace something expensive. You'd spend more time under the hood than you would behind the wheel.

Not to mention battery replacements and tires because they weigh a lot more.

Temperature has minimal if any effect on the power output of an electric motor. It can have an impact on range, which is why we set our Tesla to prewarm the battery in the winter, and to cool the car in the summer, while it is still plugged in. Put good tires on, and our dual motor model 3 will easily crush most if not all street legal vehicles.
