Teslas are useless in winter.

From Hoid's article and shows a major issue with a Tesla. You have park in a heated garage or you can't charge it.

Use peat. Canada has enough to go a couple hundred years.

If we harvested all that peat and killed all the beavers we could save the trees and finally build year round roads to Injun Rezes.

You'd have to travel from heated indoor charging station to heated indoor charging station.

These would need to be the size of malls.

Yeah, if you have a coal power plant or nuclear reactor in the trunk.

Hoid only drives IN malls...the nickel ride

OK well it worked, I,m not really a beaver, what I want is money and power and a small tropical island, do you think we could work together?

LOL, everybody dies
:)
Whether you die stoned, drunk, fed, warm, and laid,(while the grand kids shovel the driveway)
well...

There ( haha): Now, I agree with you.

I,m afirm believer in recycling, we can't get outta here without a lot of processing,it may take several repeats before life beats you into shape, death is a promise not a fact, sort of, sure the meat putrifies but the spark slithers away and into somethig else, like a cat or rover
of course I just gave you the first couple of pages in a quite involved series of books most of which I haven,t written yet and may never.

electric vehicles are suited to commuting traffic within large cities - exactly what ic vehicles were suited for in their early development.

that is so politically incorrect. city slickers like you should be taking city transit. the only time you should ever use your car is when you go for a drive in the country. combustion engines rule once again.
