Lee Zelden was on the boob tube Sunday and much to my surprise he spoke about NYS oil and gas and extracting it.
Has anyone actually compared the cost of running an ICE engine vs the cost of recharging an EV?
There is way too many variables to come up with a solid cost per mile. Need to know the delivered cost per kwh of your electricity (or where you buy it from if not home) and the efficiency of your vehicle (how many piles per X kwh. Its a big push that maintenance is cheaper...I bet thats a wash in the end since everything else is more expensive.Has anyone actually compared the cost of running an ICE engine vs the cost of recharging an EV?
$70 to fill my tank from 1/4 to full vs ??? electrical cost to recharge an EV. (ignoring the initial outlay of buying the EV, and the fact that no EV has an equivalent range of an ICE vehicle, nor an equivalent 'refuel rate' as an ICE vehicle, nor a power grid that can handle the massive influx of demand required for everyone to switch to EV).
My sister had a Prius Hybrid ... Liked it Now this car was used for short trips around town. put very little gas / month in it. Cannot explain why a 5 year old Prius could only get around $6000 at trade in time ... Two years ago. . This is the trouble with Democrats. It is all in with the EV's .. Ban gas... Myself I say many folks would opt to have one EV and one gas or diesel auto in the driveway. Use the EV for small trips and gas for long trips. Don't know how much increase in their Electric bill was .Has anyone actually compared the cost of running an ICE engine vs the cost of recharging an EV?

Its like $15-20K to replace a battery in a tesla.It's only cheaper until it comes time to change the battery. From what I've heard, 10 years is about it on those batteries. If my truck was an EV, I'd be looking at probably 5 - 10k to replace the battery. Definitely another lever to drive consumption and fuck the poors.
Premium dropped below $5 by me for the first time in a few weeks. If they have been blaming Russia for the high prices, I think now we must owe Russia a thank you.
Thank you, Russia, for easing the pain at the pump.
It’s not even the charging ports it’s the time to charge and the range IMO.i kind of look at the EV this way . until there is charging ports at every gas station .. its just a luxury automobile ..
Solar is terrible. I have no use for it and every calculator I’ve done for my house is my cost is a net negative.
All this nonsense makes me want to get another oil burner, put huge injectors into it, and tune it so it lopes and rolls so much coal it makes people mad........
Problem is, the cost of the diesel. LOL
Do you think it was a mistake for Obama to give Solyndra a 535 Million Dollar "Loan" only for them to file bankruptcy months later?Solar is mandated 20 yrs to make it pay back.
It is all a scam of tax dollars.
Unless the tax payers subsidize it, it never pays back on its own.

NOTHING in Government happens by mistake, it is all planned out, often years in advance.
Do you think its a coincidence that the sudden increase in Fuel Prices happened at the same time major manufacturers are rolling out Electric powered vehicles, equipment and off-road toys? There are no coincidences.
Look at the Puppet in Chief and tell us Obama's no where to be found. Obama's Solyndra Problem - FactCheck.org
