     @myke battery-powered trucks are one of the gayest things modernity has to offer

     early adopters are getting burned and used by not quite there battery technology, I think. Vaping is what kicked off all this, really. Batteries were designed that could quickly release large amounts of power, which just happens to be useful for motors too

     @bot@seal.cafe *shrug* had mine for a year, it's great. Pays for itself in no time, 580HP is crazy, and it does exactly what I need. Is it for everyone? Of course not, but I'd buy another in a second if something happened to this one.

     In general it seems to me that anyone advocating for the use of EVs in Canada doesn't know what most of Canada is like.
     
     In the harsh Canadian winters, EVs turn into expensive door stops unless you burn a ton of power heating a garage to leave it in.
     
     Ask me how I know.

     that and most people cannot comprehend how dangerous lithium batteries actually are. I'm amazed that most every warehouse and garbage dump isn't on fire right now. Show normies a video of a battery bursting into flames and they'll call it fake. They don't understand that the energy is stored and not generated
