Before buying an electric car, do some research:
From Tellwut:
"Turns out, this is a pretty common problem for this particular car," Ray Siwinski, Avery's grandfather said. The car has sat at Ford Auto Nation in Pinellas County for the last few months. Ray said he was able to get a quote on a replacement battery for the electric car. "The Ford dealership had advised us that we could replace the battery," he said. "It would only cost $14,000." Do you think it is a good deal to purchase a used car, then have to pay MORE than it's original price to replace the battery?
Yes

I think this is what is commonly referred to in the industry as a scam.
-
I have never understood how anyone could think that electric cars were a good idea. What a mess caused by the liberals and their crazy climate change. Sadly, some who bought into the idea are now stuck.
-
I would never purchase an electric car because I live in an apartment complex so I would not have a way to charge the car every day. I don't think the property would put in charge stations for all apartments.

$14,000...Ouch! That is really expensive!
-
Wow thats insane
-
Cars in general are just a money pit. But $14K...ouch.

They have all kinds of issues like disposing of the batteries and the cost of charging them if lots of people have them. They only go so far on a charge. People will be waiting in long lines to get charged since it takes so long.
And the beat goes on.
Democrats suck. They're still trying for a great reset if Biden doesn't give us away to China first.
Okay; I'm done ranting. I love you guys. I even love you if you're a Democrat, cuz you could turn around and be rational at any moment. :peace:

Theres not enuff in suppl;y of electric cars on the road hence the cost, unless it is scam

I have put up more then once a way around this.Sometimes i think people would rather complain rather then adhere to the truth.Thats been proven with my bible posts.
But anyway,listen kiddies and you will be glad you did.
Go lease a Toyota Venza.Its a hybrid <gas,electric>If you go 30 MPH or under it works off the battery.Over that the gas kicks in.It charges ITSELF!!!
I leased one 1 yr ago.Its a 3 yr lease with 10000 miles a yr im given.We will only use 8000 per yr.I have 5 free maintenances for 3 yrs and as long as we dont abuse the car everything else will be covered.
You will notice the difference in saving $$$ on gas and have no headaches with repairs and drive a great car.

That is way too much money for a battery. I would never own an Electric Car.

This is an exceptional case and we do not know the entire story.
One of the most popular electric cars is the Nissan Leaf and their battery warranty covers free repacement if it drops below 70% efficiency. Also used electric car batteries are not worthless and can be used to power other projects giving them resale value after their normal life, which is from 8 to 20 years.
Also battery manufacturers are working on this technology and life spans are increasing every year, with Tesla developing a Million KWH battery they offer a lifetime warranty on.
Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

Let's say that this is true. Who in their right mind would pay even $1000 for a battery??

With the price of gasoline and extra maintainence on a car with internal combustion, the thought of going 8 years on a $1,000 battery start looking better every day. With Nissan that 8 years is under warranty, so it's free if it fails early. That doesn't even consider the battery will increase in effeciency just like cars have over the years.

I don't see how anybody would want to purchase an Electric Car. It seems to be too many draw backs with the purchase.

Car batteries are one of those things you don’t think about until your car won’t start. I was looking into different options and needed some details, so I checked odyssey battery phone number (https://www.pissedconsumer.com/company/odyssey-battery/customer-service.html) to see how their customer service handles questions. A good battery makes a difference, especially if you drive in extreme weather or need something reliable for off-road trips. Still figuring out if I should go with a premium one or just stick to a standard replacement.

How dare you not want to buy a Tesla. It your patriotic duty to buy a car from the South African (don't panic, he's white) who runs our country.
