The sunk cost fallacy is a very easy way to get stuck being miserable.
Sometimes a drastic change might be painful at the time but will be much better for you overall.
Still no evidence from you. Also it appears you can’t read or comprehend simple statements. I said there were more issues with electric vehicles than just batteries. I didn’t say that was anything to do with reliability. Issues with vehicle ownership impact how long that vehicle lasts. Hopefully this time it will sink in. This isn’t about durability or fragility (which are also two concepts you also don’t seem to understand) of an electric motor in a hypothetical situation.
The article isn’t about reliability it is about Electric Vehicles outlasting ICE vehicles. Which is the life of the vehicle. So includes all the things I mentioned. Unless now we’re in another hypothetical world where there are no problems whatsoever over the life of the vehicle. In which case they both last forever.
Your statements about why there aren’t EV garages is complete nonsense and shows you know nothing about the actual subject.
Ah so now it’s elaboration and credible sources.
I’m already one up on this with an article from the FT about insurance costs being higher due to the increased likelihood of an electric car write off.
How about some actual evidence they’re more reliable? Other than your bizarre hypothetical arguments.
Here’s a couple just off the top of my head that I can’t be bothered to get links for.
Tied to the dealer. There’s very few independent EV garages. 95% of the time you’ll have to take the price for any repair they offer you. You can’t shop around.
Complexity. Although they often use the “one moving part” argument with all the extra infrastructure for charging etc they can have very bespoke electric parts. Which means no simple of the shelf pattern parts that are as good for much less. Dealer parts only.
Delay in these parts. There just isn’t enough of a parts infrastructure at the moment. This can even cover simple things like lights or trim.
Not enough technicians.
Yes it will but it will always be significantly cheaper to repair. Since 40% of the cost of an electric car is the battery even minor damage to those means that repair is just not viable.
Ah so you’re still talking about some hypothetical situation where EVs get used but don’t have to deal with real world driving issues.
Yes in that very specific hypothetical situation an EV may outlast an ICE. However the ICE is getting no damage either in this world. So who can say.
However Renault saying they will last longer than ICE because the batteries aren’t aging as badly as they thought is still completely untrue. Far more issues with long term EV ownership than just battery age.
When we have some 20 year plus EVs with hundreds of thousands of miles on them still driving around then maybe that will be true.
What on earth are you talking about?
Part of the car ownership and life is driving and using it.
If neither of them was driven or used then ICE still wins. What do you think happens to batteries if you let them sit and completely discharge?
So sitting in a garage unused = expressive electric brick. For ICE that’s a car that can be restored in some way
Using them on the roads and getting damage to the battery pack = a write off for an electric car. The level of damage needed to write off an ICE car is much higher. They’re much more repairable.
Yes theoretically an EV should outlast an ICE but in the real world they won’t at the moment.
This is backed by the much higher insurance costs for EVs.
That’s odd as the insurance costs for electric vehicles keep going up. A large chuck of which is the cost for repair or the likelihood of minor damage (e.g battery pack) resulting in a write off.

So in a perfect world where the EV works perfectly all it’s life then they probably will.
However in a world with other drivers and faults that even Renault can’t repair in their own cars resulting in write-offs (can’t find the article on that one) then we aren’t there yet.
Not anti electric vehicles just this statement at this moment is false.
Yes yes they are. Don’t need to look past the sequel trilogy films. Which are essentially:
A happy days reunion special.
Running from set piece to set piece with a mess of a plot
Fuck it let’s just bring Palptine back to make it look like we had some grand plan.
Yeah but does anyone call them that? I’d still call that kind of fine cut a paper cut.
Never heard anyone say “ow I’ve got a cardboard cut”
Are the cuts from packaging different then?
Never heard of cardboard cuts…
That’s a shame. Although living in that van all those years probably didn’t help.
I’m trying to coin the phrase distopia.
To make it clear we’re talking about this dystopia we’re living in now.
I’m also open to it meaning a world where everyone’s disses are completely on point.
Yep nice but of classic projection.
Mine keeps telling me, angrily, how angry I am. Yet I want absolutely zero to do with her and avoid her at all cost.
It’s quite an achievement to be a drug taking dickhead for nearly 40 years!
My understanding is that current atomic clocks work on changing the state of whole atoms.
Whereas this new method changes the state of part of the nucleus of an atom.
Basically smaller is more precise. However given that current atomic clocks are one second out over something like a billion years I’ve no idea what benefit this extra preciseness will give us.
We’ll probably start noticing really weird shit when we look at time that precisely. That’s generally what’s happened when we get into the quantum scale of things.
I could be wrong but I seem to remember this is one of the reasons why the baskets have a net.
You’re not allowed to do that but if the net wasn’t there then in pre-video games the refs might not be able to spot if the ball went up through the hoop.
Think they were also to stop players reaching up through the hoop to defend as well.
So you know brioche buns should be ever so slightly sticky, but a sweet sticky, right?
Not to ruin your favourite burger place but maybe you should just buy some buns from a bakers and then see what they’re like fresh.
At the moment there are two options. You can’t quite tell the difference between brioche sticky and greasy sticky or your burger place manages to get grease all over your buns.
How good are they overall? Do you want to know the answer?
Edit: Damn it came to me just too late. At the moment you’re stuck in Heisenberg’s buns. Do you want to resolve that?
Only if they didn’t report such a message/activity and fully cooperate.
My understanding is that if you are party to things like this and don’t take the required action then you are liable to this wider definition of making.
So you are essentially complicit in the making of them because you didn’t try and stop/report it in a timely manner.
Happens with loads of other stuff like murders, terror, theft etc… Basically if you know about serious crimes and don’t take any action. Then you can be found guilty of a very similar offence as the people who committed the exact offence.
Did you read the recall? Again it says hood latch switch deformation.
That may be part of the hood latch assembly but again at no point does it say that the latch not latching is the issue. Only the reporting of the latching state.
You’re really rather pathetic and I’m certainly no fan of Tesla or Musk. A brief check of my previous posts would confirm this.
As you’re obviously not very good at reading or understanding things then that fact probably did slip by you. You seem to be only capable of latching (you might not see what I did there being a bit dense) onto certain words without understanding the full issue.
This is correct. Those separate square bullet points are just for the monitor.
Isn’t very clear though. So it does read like the Amiga 500 is fully compatible with the Amiga 500…
