Electric cars

[wirelessguru1]

I had never seen so many electric cars all at once in the same area so no wonder the gas prices are going down.

As I was enjoying My usual cup of coffee outside here in Sunny California I saw five (5) different electric cars moments from each other and all in the same general area. A Fiat, a Ford, a Nissan, a Tesla and then one of those small electric "smart" cars!

What about in your area, are you also seeing more electric cars?

Yeah... I saw a Chevy Volt a few minutes ago, in fact.

 

[Elvira]

Nope, not in the area I live!

 

[wirelessguru1]

I've seen a few Chevy Volts also but not today...

Well, sunny California is usually ahead with new trends like solar, electric cars, etc...

Yeah, we're full of pompous hippies.

 

[Elvira]

LOL I did think it must be a Cali thing!

 

[wirelessguru1]

Nothing wrong with that... LOL!!!

Actually those types of people are the most annoying. Can't stand overly arrogant, pompously self righteous jerks who love to do things like buy a hybrid and rub everyone's face in it.

Nothing wrong with driving a hybrid, its actually a good thing... just be humble about it. Do it for you, not to have something to brag about.

Actually they are buying Teslas now and no longer Hybrids. Essentially Hybrids are no longer "trending"...

Insert whatever word fits in place of "hybrid" and my sentiments are the same.

But even tough electrical cars are trending these days Tesla Motors is still struggling!

I don't know what cars are electric/hybrid, so I wouldn't know if there are more in my area.

Living in a very Earth-friendly state/city, there are quite a few "smart" cars or electric vehicles. You see more and more of them as time passes here in Portland.

Yes Florida has plenty of those annoying hybrid cars. Every time I see one of those Chevy Volts I want to ram it for all the tax forced payers money wasted on that piece of junk.

Anyways we have a Tesla dealership near me and when I pass it quite regularly it is ALWAYS empty. Over priced junk is what they are.

Nope! Teslas are actually really nice cars.

I agree, I wouldn't waste my money on one...

Right now Teslas are a status symbol for the higher end markets and as such not for everyone...

How is that a reply to the post you quoted? Are you calling me trash because I don't care for that brand of car?

 

[wirelessguru1]

No, I'm not calling you anything but rather "clarifying" the present target markets for Tesla Motors...
In others words, one needs to have a very high income and also looking for a status symbol in order to consider and then buy a Tesla.
Right now they are high end (expensive) sports cars with a very powerful electric engine.
