EVs are the future. Get onboard once you can afford it.
I'm all for it, but I'm not jumping on board to ev until the infrastructure is at a point where charging is as quick and easy and ubiquitous as filling up gas. Or at least closer than it is now. Then again I will admit I don't have an EV so I haven't been able to personally experience what that is actually like.
I could however see getting an EV in a two car household where the primary purpose of the EV is for commuting and just getting around locally. Anything beyond that though I would still feel more comfortable with gas or a hybrid.
That's what bicycles are for.
yes but my carbrain
What type of EV? Because people have a habit of conflating the battery powered EV with EVs in general.
Me and my children crave the microplastics they produce
Are you sure you don't crave the greenhouse gases a CEV produces?
You say as if there are no plastics in ICE-cars.
I am all for a big reduction in plastics use, so any new thing that has that new plastics smell I dislike.
I think its funny yet interesting that everyone sees my comment as pro combustion not anti car
Some of us don't really have the choice to not have a car, there's virtually no public transportation where I live.
cool cool, so we can't solve the problem overnight, doesnt correlate much to how much effort we should put in though
It was simply because you answered to a comment about EVs specifically and didn't specify anything else. So your answer does look identical to one that would have been just anti electric car.
I just wanted to write a dumb comment btw, not arguing for cars of any type, really.
My answer could look identical to a random letter generator too given enough time IG, but I feel ya some days I think I'm spewing nothing but shit online lmao
