Invest in coal power plants.

buy a cheap one that qualifies for the $7500 rebate and has great resale value. Immediately have equity in depreciating asset.

shit's never gonna stick kek, see how it will fail and not be able to do what they want you to think it might do. EVs are pipedream

siphon charging station electricity to power computers generating deepfake porn of kpop idols and sell the videos online

The fuck lol is this post from 2016?
Are Muricans this stupid, here in Norway over 50% of cards sold are evs already, adoption curve is uponly

>>55997921
probably because the majority of your country lives in like 2 metros and there's little reason to ever leave the perfectly designed cities you guys have

people love tesla here in texas btw, way more popular than mercedes or bmw

Yeah it makes sense,
Im just saying consider the significant investments made by top automakers in electric vehicle (EV) platforms and infrastructure. It's clear that these companies are not treating EVs as a passing whim but rather as a strategic move to secure their position in a rapidly evolving market.

I don't even like evs, but that comment is retarded

>>55997881
THIS
I load up my custom custom EV bus with extra batteries and GPUs, drive it to rich neighborhoods with free EV chargers, and siphon as much juice as I can while selling GPU processing time and mining crypto.
It's literally free money.

>>55997921
lol get out of here with your electric cars, you have shitty power infrastructure and get your power from burning trees. We have the most robust and resilient power infrastructure in the world; also in the US the power produced to charge most EVs is almost 40% coal.

>>55997953
tesla is garbage dude, it has horrible build quality, horrible driveability, you can't even have sex in it, and your friends laugh at you if your drive one

>>55997658
>Has great resale value
>Talking about EVs

No one is taking on EVs in the second hand market.

hydrogen, which is realistically the only way you'll power larger vehicles and heavy equipment
>japs see it
>jcb sees it
>soon as the like of cat and deere see it so will everyone else

I'm waiting for a reasonably priced EV that can go from LA to SF on a single charge. Does such a thing exist yet?

>>55998022
If this isn’t LARP it’s based lmao. Can you do similar things with e-bikes?

>>55997921
Norway is only rich from selling oil. It's a socialist basket case otherwise. That's the irony, it presents itself as some futurist utopia of clean energy when in reality the entire economy is based on fossil fuels and would collapse without them. EVs are a scam, they have no intention of moving people into EVs, people won't even own new cars in 10 years, everyone will use public transport, and the rich will be using synthetic fuels since it's a far better technology than EV.

>>55997824
Not really, I think you judged the future of EV from how Tesla and other American companies are doing. And yes the likes of Tesla are a bit retarded.
By 2030 the 90% of EV minerals will be mined in countries not under US influence, so that is true if Tesla won't be big. But EV will take off anywhere else.

>>55997276
>How can I profit from this?
By shorting their stock because it's an unsustainable fad until big technological breakthroughs are made

>>55998137
That's assuming that the ruling class is interested in actually lessening pollution, but that's not the case. When and if they see fit they will allow heavy machinery to run on diesel as long as they wish and justify it.

>>55998190
>Can you do similar things with e-bikes?
Yes. Just get that J1772 to NEMA 5-15 adapter, plug it into your e-bike battery charger, then plug the J1772 connector into the EV charging station. It will charge just like it would at home. The one downside is that you will have to bring the charger around with you, and it's slightly dangerous to do in the rain.
(make sure charger is rated for 115-240v, most chargers are unless they are absolute bottom-barrel dogshit)

Too late, you need to invest before the normies adopt it.

>>55997276
Invest in fire extinguishers.

>>55998175
The cheapest electric car that can do that trip is the Tesla Model S which costs 75k so no, no reasonably priced EV can do that yet.

>cybertruck delivering Q3
>updated model 3 highland being released
>model y best selling vehicle worldwide beating Toyota corolla
>furthest self driving development with million of miles each month
>all car manufacturers adopting Tesla charging adapter in US

>>55997276
Buy the stock of those companies

>>55997276
ev's blow up when get in the slighest crash

>>55999428
I don't like them, but that just is not true. Even sone cases of really bad battery impact damage didn't start a fire.

We don't have the infrastructure for EVs yet. They've built a lot of it for California and from DC to NYC, but what if your work has you go into West Virginia, or the Plains? It's like expecting everyone in Russia to adopt EVs when they have only support for them in Moscow to Saint Petersburg and Vladivostok

>can't even have sex in it
What?
I had sex with 2 girls in one
There's a video on pornhub of someone having sex while it's driving on the highway

What's stopping us?

>>56000642
> watches a video on ph
> thinks he had sex
zoomers are brain fucked

>>55998971
damn that sucks. a camry 4cyl can do that trip easily on one tank of gas and a corolla can just make it if you drive carefully. guess i'll wait a while. i don't want to end up wandering around in the central valley at midnight trying to find a charger with all the metheads waiting to carjack me.

>>55997276
EVs are botnet, planned obsolescence peices of shit. Pic related will remain the greatest commuter vehicle to have ever exsisted.

>>56000768
from old cars maybe, new cars Mazda take throne with their non CVT transamination non hybrid cars

they basically said FUCK Evs

>>55997276
establish fire fighter business

Buy old cars, literal 200x

the new prius looks cool as fuck and is not a 3,500 pound eco-slow land yacht like the new camry

>>56000768

the golden age of toyota are old as fuck now. we will all have to eat the bugs eventually

>>55997276
its not fucking here unless i can have 1000 km before having to charge

>>56003472
There was little resistance until now.
But more and more people see it for the chinese scam that it is.
Trump this week and also the head of BMW said, noone but China benefits from it, because China has all the infrastructure from batteries to rare earth minerals.
It is insane, to give up a 100 year old proven technology for somehting like EVs where we dont even know where all the electricity is supposed to come from.

Invest in fire powder extinguishing systems that are eco friendly, the toxic foam and powder currently used is terrible for the environment but because EV car fires burn hotter than ICE car fires.

>>55999999
chosne one

>>56000580
yeah but you didnt answer the question you are still only rich from selling oil and distributing it out to its citizens you are as bad as saudi arabia in that regard you sneaky jew
