ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

[TheGreatAbyss]

I got a loaner model Y from Tesla with the "acceleration boost" upgrade, holy moly. 0-60 in 4.2 seconds, sucker was fast AF.

I'd consider paying for it but then you lose standard mode. I can't have the nanny driving the kids around like she's at the track

Same!
I'd still love one. That said, I'd be better off spending the money on a newer muscle car. As you say more power, speed, and technology, just not as cool. LoL

I thought this was cool. We need to go more bare bones for EVs. I don't know if this is the answer. And yes the extended range is still only 240 miles.

One outlet has called it the "anti-Tesla," referring to its simple, minimalist stature.

Haven't finished yet, but this could be a game changer: Walmart is launching its own charging network. To give you a sense of scale, Walmart has 5,000 locations. Tesla (the biggest now) has something like 3500 charging locations. 90% of Americans live within 10 miles of a Walmart or Sam's club.
