You don’t like your own logic being used against you, do you? Can’t handle it so revert to name calling haha

The whole “vulnerable people” line is complete bullshit lol.

Saying that on average a EV battery will last you 400k miles for one lol.

There’s also the fact that it will need to be charged more and more frequently the older the car gets, as battery capacity reduces.

Then there’s the fact that one is a twin turbo performance car, the other is a family car.

Also the fact that electricity prices have been absolutely soaring the last few years, with no end in sight, while petrol prices have remained static for years.

And you couldn’t buy the game digitally either if that’s the case.

What you can do is continue playing your copy that you already have.

A new engine for a 7+ year old out of warranty car that cost as much as a mass market EV is NOT going to cost you $10k.

And yes, there are more parts in conventional cars, but most parts are cheap to repair/replace. There’s no $20k part that WILL need replacing like there is in a EV. There’s no part that will make your car get less mileage every year.

They aren’t just rounding up people based on tattoos lol. They’ve said that they’re in communication with their government and are helping to get known gang members/associates that they are requesting.

Also, and I don’t know why this seems to be hard for you guys - just because someone says they’re not a criminal/gang member/gang affiliated DOES NOT MEAN THEY AREN’T. People - especially criminals - lie. They’re not locking people up because of a tattoo lol.

Also from your own link ffs lol:

DHS intelligence assessments go beyond a single tattoo and we are confident in our findings."

When asked if the administration had additional evidence that Barrio was a member of the gang, an administration official told ABC News he had other tattoos that were TdA-affiliated.

So basically the “soccer” tattoo might not be a gang one…..but his big one that says the gangs name is.

Lots of missing info in that story. You can’t just carry someone’s ashes into the USA. It doesn’t sound like he went through the correct processes to do that, which is a huge biological hazard risk and that alone would be enough to deny entry.

Nah they weren’t criminals, they said it themselves :). And you believe them, as shown in this topic :)

What’s bullshit?

If voter fraud isn’t a real problem then you should have no issue making sure it can’t happen.

Again missing the point. My assumption wasn’t that batteries fail at a higher rate than “major components” on an ICE car - it was that if/when the battery fails it’s exponentially more expensive than any component failing on a ICE car.

If you buy a $50k ICE car and the entire engine dies out of warranty (which isn’t what happens generally, just parts of it would), a whole new engine will cost you probably $3k-$4k installed. Battery dies out of warranty on a $50k EV? ~$20k to replace……for a car that’s worth probably $10k by then.

Do you see the difference? One means you literally send the car to the wreckers and have no car, the other means you’re back on the road in the same car a week or 2 later.

Gestapo lol. People accused of crimes being detained by the police is gestapo activity now is it?
