It certainly won't be in his imaginary Model S Plaid(supposedly on order since last year). Current Plaid delivery estimate is one week for new order.

I fact checked your statement and Snopes had "Shut up and obey" for the answer.

EV's are sexist and racist, too.

I’m not marrying this girl and she knows it.

When I’m done filling her up like a Twinkie she’s up for grabs. That’s why she’s on tinder. Lmaoooo

Some required a total system reboot to work correctly.

Yet another talking point on what I brought up many posts back that the lack of a standard for charging will cause all these issues.
And that's another major issue with EV. If the charging gets standardized then the potential for future advancement in charging technology gets locked, which then locks the battery technology. That is not conducive to competition in design and implementation, so then the advancement of EV is muted. As you pointed out many posts back, ICE has standardized the charging protocols, but because ICE technology is not reliant on the charging protocols, the technology of ICE continues to advance.

Tesla's company-private charging network is proprietary, which offers lots of advantages mostly because on the networking side where the network has command and control over the charging sequencing of the users on the network and controls their pathways to optimize the charging infrastructure. How that scales to tens of millions of Tesla travelers on a saturated Tesla charging network is an interesting question; I'm sure Elon has a plan... But how such charging command and control would translate to a dis-homologated DC Fast-Charging network owned by numerous private companies all vying for the electron dollar is a highly entertaining question - for you IT networking guys .

EV road tripping works well on Tesla's private network, even though it is still limited compared to ICE, it does work for most Tesla owners if they know how to properly use the technology and give up some privacy rights along the way. I don't see such advantages becoming viable on the DC-Fast Charging infrastructure, which is a roadblock to mass adoption of EV if there is no ICE backup*. Tesla can't be the World's only EV supplier.

Why we let Leadership screw with any of this is beyond my rational understanding.




*The whole idea of this forced move to BEV is to eventually rid the Earth of ICE.

All this shit gained traction pre covid and pre inflation where money was cheap utilities were cheap etc and there was money to borrow at a cheap rate to spunk on this stuff. The dynamics are changing. When people are dying due to lack of food and lack of ability to heat their home and cannot purchase/drive a car to get them to work so that food can be put on the table for some co2 target this vanity project will come crashing down like a pack of cards.
