  1. I can't speak for all Americans but I can speak for what I see in my area , upper New York around the capital area, Albany. Honestly I have only seen about 3 Teslas in like a 200 mile radius. One in Albany and a red one & a white one in Schenectady NY. While in New York City I thought I'd seen a Tesla but end up being a old Buick very well kept up. While in Connecticut I see none. I'm a #Patron" member but I could get 2 shits about electric cars. Getting at 2022 Tacoma. Electric cars are big in California and now they will be big in Texas. Range means a lot. Cities put up the "charge of stations" around my area but there's never a car plugged into them. A fake "Feel Good" for the politicians . A couple years ago we used to see the Chevy Bolts here and there plug in charge of stations by the supermarkets, don't see that any more. The recall killed that. I have yet to see E-Mustang . Europe and China are pretty big on the Global Warming thingie, not so much for most Americans or Mexicans. Seems like Canada is 50/50 with the "global warming" idea. More Canadians own Teslas than Americans. The so called myth about how electric vehicle sucks in the Winter , has taken hold ❗️

  4.  @terenceiutzi4003  What you say here is brand new. I never heard of people buying EVs but can NOT afforded to charge up their EVs at home❗️ I'm trying to gather all the facts I can about EVs before I buy one. What you're stating here is a first 🧐 The Tesla Fan channel and this channel , #Electric Viking , makes it seem that there is nothing But "upsides" when buying a EV and leaving behind ICE vehicles. The only downside when switching to EVs is "Range and Anxiety".

  9. That's a wonderful read and thank you. We need some Tesla executive to talk to a well known rapper and come up with a song about, ☆how cool it is the own a EV☆ 🎶🎼🎵🎼 LoL. While at a Super Bowl party the younger people are all saying it's "gay" , to own a EV 🤪 P.S. I am a NASCAR FAN

  10.  @johannbrauer9285  ATM This was placed down an hour ago and between then and now a couple of guys called , wanna know if I'm gonna come on over and watch NASCAR . We love the sound of the thunderous V8's . But it'll be nice if the Manufacturers of EV's was to set up their own type of nascar kind of race. I would watch it. The Tesla Plaid has one the quickest take offs . Extremely quick and fast in the quarter mile. So on a track like Talladega or Daytona they will eat up the straight way , I don't know how well they will do in the turns. 🏁

  14. If you are correct and 60% of the price of gas is taxes. When the electric vehicles becomes 50% of the vehicles on the road , State and the Federal are gonna lose out on a lot of tax income ❕️💲❕️ 🤔

  15. EV channels and more affluent EV owners never said anything about how some EV owners can NOT afford to charge their EVs up at home , they need a power power station ❗️❕️❗️

  16.  @RLTW798  I'm talking about , is learning about ALL the ins and out of owning EVs. Nobody I know owns one. Sam talks about the EV's more than any other channel and the variety of EVs. In this THREAD, @Terence Lutzi mentions that he knows people that own EVs but can not afford to charge them up. I'd never heard of anything like that before, but he sounds like hes telling the truth. The many EV owners that comes to this channel especially the Tesla owners, buying a car is just pocket change for them. That is not the case with me.

  18. Sounds like very excellent reasons to hold off. Should be definitely cheaper with so many startup companies making EVs only. After 3 years , the "Range Anxiety" should come to an end because there will be a whole lot more charge of stations scattered around America. And with the breakthroughs the "charging up" , should be as quick as "filling up", an ICE vehicle with gas.

  20. I just Google it and the Ford electric trucks will start around 40000 and go up to 90000. I could not get a price for the cyber truck.

  22. 🙂 a young 🍼 73 👍 No one else has made the moves like you did ? Are you sure you're attached to that family you're talking about. 😅 Don't feel bad no one in my family, nor my friends have made the move, to buy solar panels, or buy a EV.

  23. Teslas are popular in California. I subscribe to the Wham Bam Tesla Cam , channel and most of the Contributing videos from America comes into that channel from around the California area. If Tesla would only advertise their sales figures would definitely goes up .

  29.  @johannbrauer9285  You love your straightways. Is there anything out there saying how well the Tesla will do in a curves.. You sound like you put enough money in your cars to be be able to own a Tesla Plaid .
