Nobody should be buying these stupid fuckin things. The reason they’re trying to transition society over to electric cars is so they can limit your travel. “Oh no, you went over your carbon footprint allotment, you can’t charge your car for the rest of the month”. That’s not a future I want any part of.

Yeah, because refining your own gasoline is much easier than plugging a solar panel into your car.
Do retards like you just make this shit up in your dreams?

yes, refining your own fuel is much easier than putting the equivalent of solar panels on your car, or even on your own land, which you would then have to return too to recharge, you can refine 100s of miles of fuel in the time it would take you to charge you car and you can put the whole rig in the back of your car with a few bottles of waste cooking oil for more mileage, you are just ignorant

Literally what the *actual* fuck would you know?
Please, go ahead and show us your trunk-sized gasoline refinery that runs on cooking oil lmao. The one you definitely own, because obviously you're talking from experience, and not just being an exhaustingly cliche NPC LARPing hypercontrarian shithead.
Be sure to tell us *what is POWERING* your trunk-sized gasoline refinery too, because I bet you're too fucking stupid to have remembered that part.
Imagine actually claiming you're just going to casually run your own fractionating hydrocracking refinery and that that's simpler and easier than just dumping an inert piece of gear that has zero moving parts on the ground and letting it magically produce energy from the sky without any input from you whatsoever.
You are why you have no friends. Literally do everyone who knows you a favor and kill yourself right fucking now.

1) BIODIESEL is NOT GASOLINE.
2) What is POWERING your biodiesel refinery? That fucking picture literally shows it *plugged into a wall*.
3) That literally requires multiple inputs of additional chemicals (like methanol) that you aren't going to just casually have on hand.
4) That is *NOT* easier than dumping a panel on the floor and going off to do something else while energy magically fills your car without any further input whatsoever.

EV drivetrain is much simpler than that of an ICE. Also, generating electricity without government or large corporations is easier than refining your own oil.

u/explosivebuttplug insists he can fit an oil refinery in his trunk LMAO
It's kind of ironic, though. The most sophisticated and futuristic modern vehicle almost becomes one of the best TEOTWAWKI vehicles. Charging an EV off of photovoltaics would take a long time, but it'd move you farther than waiting for it to rain fresh gasoline when you run out of that. Plus, basically no fluids, no transmission, way less shit to have fail mechanically.
Even when the battery begins to fail it'll still move you around.
The biggest weakness is the centralized 'drive by wire' computer system. If that shit throws a fault you're not going anywhere.
Referring to non-trucks as 'cuckmobiles' means you unironically tie your identity of masculinity to owning a fucking truck, which is exactly the stereotype of "little dick manlet driving a big truck to compensate".
you are a cuck, just stop pinigng me and il stop pointing it out, this is a small scale refinery that you could fit in the back of your car unless you drive a fucking cuckcage https://www.mdpi.com/1996-1073/14/7/1901
Yeah, but really all you *need* is a motor controller (which is, like, a dozen components or less and you can solder it together yourself) and maybe a circuit to handle the battery charging.
You don't need a single IC chip for a fully functional EV, where as a fuel injected ICE needs a whole programmed control module.

Better to have a single higher efficiency powerplant outside of the city instead of hundreds of thousands of individual combustion engines spewing fumes where people live.
And that's assuming the same source. Many countries are hitting over 50% non-fossil-fuel electricity generation.
I crunched the numbers back in school (~20 years ago) because I was interested in EVs. It's significantly more efficient to burn gasoline in a power plant and then transmit the power over lines to charge batteries than use individual engines, simply because your car engine is almost always running at inefficient RPMs. That's also why hybrids are more efficient than full gas, even though they weigh more.
Electric vehicles are cool in theory, but it's been shoehorned into (((their))) draconian lock down "smart" grid.
Someone sell a decent electric vehicle that doesn't have to communicate with its mothership. You push a button and it starts. There's no updates or wireless shit, no bluetooth connectivity crap... nothing.
Take a 2000 mazda protoge with all its 2000 technology, and simply make it electric.
EV's bad cause jewlon's a NAZIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
i swear libtards are NOT human
