Marty, I think we need a ICE vs BEV sticky thread similar to the diesel vs gas one. It is just the same old circle jerk over and over every time it gets posted every other month which seems to be done for advertisement and/or profit reasons.

I think a sticky would be usefull also. It would provide a reference for those searching for answers about EV’s. So much misinformation out there.

I’m not sure I follow the advertisement or profit comment though. People search for answers on ICE vehicles as well. Doesn’t mean those giving the answers are advertising or profiting.

This is a community forum. If misinfirmation is posted someone from the community usually corrects it. It’s new technology. There is bound to be misinformation out there.

Yep, there is misinformation and hype on both sides of the argument. Many on both sides only seeing/believing what they want to and disregarding anything else as derogatory or lacking intellectual thought or logic if it does not fit what they want to be true. Dismissing "negative" facts or obstacles that haven't been solved yet doesn't mean they go away.

As far as advertisement. It is one thing to root for all BEV's, but it is another for just one brand specifically on a constant basis especially if you profit from it somehow either directly or indirectly.

Well, generally I try and provide accurate non-confrontational information on charging formats, times, habits, networks, access and occasionally costs. There is a tremendous amount of bad information floating around about charging.
I provide pictures when I can. Cost varies so much by region one needs to do their own research on cost.

We are able to provide true personal experience from 5 years of living with EV’s from the two most common brands, Tesla and Nissan. Interestingly enough my favourite EV is neither of those as my taste still leans towards the Jaguar I-pace. Maybe a someday replacement for my leaf but not anytime soon.

I can’t imagine any of my posts being an advertisement for any particular brand of BEV but hey it’s all context I suppose. It’s hard not to focus a lot on Tesla as they are the definitive name in EV’s right now. That may change some day but now everybody else combined doesn’t make as many EV’s as Tesla and that won’t change for awhile.
