Would you buy another EV?

[haroldo]

I realize most of us in a Tesla forum are enthusiastic EV owners, so asking this question here is probably going to skew the results, but if you were to buy a new car, would it be another EV?

 

[pipestem]

I have bought 4 so far. Many on here have bought more.

Most likely a PHEV for my wife before my CyberTruck number comes up (having to nudge her along the electrification spectrum).

 

[Two-rocks]

3-EV’s so far. Would never consider any ice. ICE feels like my avatar image.

I’d love to see another company make me excited about an EV but I just don’t see that right now. Tesla is just doing too much of it right. Switched earlier this year from a Tacoma and I’ll never go back

Had a good amount of trouble with Tesla corporate, and when I got the model X that we own now my sister said "Wait, you bought another Tesla after all that trouble?" The point is, as the previous poster said, nobody else makes an EV that really moves me like the Tesla's.

Probably a Taycan next. Either way don’t plan to buy another Tesla while Musk is CEO

Tell me about it.. I'll also never buy a Ford while Jim Farley is CEO

EV yes. Tesla probably not.

The topic and your first post do not match.

Would I buy another EV for the mission I bought this one for(wifes DD)? Yes, and at the moment I believe Tesla remans the superior choice.
What will my next vehicle purchase be? Either A PHEV midsize truck or a hybrid. Can’t meet my recreational range/power needs with any EV.


Since you’ve asked both questions I’ve answered both.

Someone parked a cool shade of blue Taycan by me the other day and it had me thinking….Also the Audi, forgot the name of it (RS E-tron maybe?) has cool looks too.

Had a Model 3. Really wanted BCM RCTA in my next bigger car, and didn’t like the look and feel of Y. Been driving a Mach E GTPE and so far it’s been great and most certainly better than my 3 on many aspects. It’s a city car for me so the rather unreliable charging network thankfully doesn’t bother me.

Two Ts so far, CT and 2x M2s next

I would if electricity wasn’t so expensive here in San Francisco.

I would if electricity wasn’t so expensive here in San Francisco.

This is why I don't miss living in the Bay Area, I moved from San Jose to Sacramento, have SMUD now and pay $0.135/kWh off peak summer rates vs. PG&E at $0.38/kWh off peak summer. That is almost triple! Not to mention the cost of living,

 

[israndy]

Not to brag, but I live in the HEART of the Bay Area and Alameda Municipal Power also charges 13¢ off peak (peak=4-9 m-f)

 

[haroldo]

Not to brag, but I …

…have free level 2 at my office complex

 

[israndy]

Yeah, nice. Alameda Municipal also provides free L3 charging so I'll usually bulk charge after returning from a trip there, then make watts while the sun shines at home.

 

[Miata Head]

As long as I'm in CA and within an IOU service territory, we will have 1 EV, 1 Hybrid.

Bought 3 Teslas this year, so I’m committed!
