As I saw this I had a thought. It's long been touted that Trump doesn't really have any money he's just massively in debt and lives by borrowing against his assets. Not sure if this is true or not.
However if it is, what if Musk just bought up all that debt. So all the money Trump owes he owes to Musk.
Effectively then he owns the president.
I can almost guarantee this is a parody bit or letter from Viz.
Every issue is peppered with little gems like this and the styling looks right
This is what those woke liberals want!
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....
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.
Again I remember rumours about that then as well. It seems as though this is an advanced version of that, crystallising into one person.
