Quote from jfk123 :
Let me get this straight. Are you claiming that the proportion of American housing supply being single family home is the same as owner-occupancy rate?
No.

I have literally never made a single claim about owner occupancy.

That's a strawman issue you brought in that nobody else ever mentioned.



Quote from jfk123 :
You don't have to explain jack to me.
It seems clear someone does.



Quote from jfk123 :
I understood your nonsense just fine
Then why do you keep asking me if I said things I very clearly never said?



Quote from jfk123 :
. But you might want to have an ESL student explain to you that these two are unequivaquolly, NOT THE SAME THING.
Given I never claimed they were you again appear to be making up arguments nobody is having, then getting mad about them.



Quote from jfk123 :
You are a liar.
Your inability to make a cogent argument is not improved by your inability to argue at all without repeated, inaccurate, personal attacks.



Quote from jfk123 :
you also lied about the average miles driven by the American.
Except, of course, I did not.

But please quote me doing so if you think otherwise.


Quote from jfk123 :
I don't have to admit anything
Clearly.



Quote from jfk123 :
, but you might want to put the empty space between your ears to use and think this out.

Remember, if you have the facts on your side pound the facts.

If you have the law on your side pound the law.

And, as in your case, when you have nothing on your side pound the table.



Quote from jfk123 :
Strawman? You made the argument that EV's are good for the "vast majority" of Americans. I didn't make that up.
CORRECT.

You just made up a bunch of other things I did not say then insisted I was wrong despite never saying them.



Quote from jfk123 :
I challenged you to back that up with facts and numbers
And I did back up the things I actually said with facts and numbers.

Ones you kept responding to by saying "Sure, THOSE ARE ALL TRUE, but what about this other stuff you never said that isn't true?"



Quote from jfk123 :
So let's do some basic math

If that's all you feel up to at this point, sure. Gotta start somewhere.



Quote from jfk123 :
Per Tesla, 120V would charge a Model Y at 3 miles per hour.

Well, no, this too is factually wrong. Or at least incomplete.

120v on a 5-15 plug would do that.

As someone else pointed out:

Quote from junshik :
120V can get 6.5MPH charging if you have a 5-20 adaptor/receptacle.
There's many homes where they have a 20 amp breaker for the circuit, so you can do as the above poster suggests and charge much more quickly without needing anyone to upgrade the panel or install a 240v receptacle or wiring.



Quote from jfk123 :
Now the average American drives 37 miles a day. So it would only take, oh, 12 hours 20 minutes to charge every day.
Correct on a 5-15... less than half that on a 5-20 120v plug.

And as I already pointed out- the average American is home more than that in both cases.

Thus, the thing I actually claimed, that 120v charging at home is sufficient for that average American, is, by your own math correct


Congrats on finally getting around to understanding something I actually said and realizing it was true!


Quote from jfk123 :
And definitely don't forget to plug in, or take a road trip.
On a roadtrip you are not at home so your home charging speed is irrelevant.

Second time I've had to point that out.

Are you unaware of what a road trip actually is?



Quote from jfk123 :
That's convenient for the "vast majority."
Well yes.

In fact, if you live in NYC as you claim, you should be aware it's a PITA to actually go to a gas station routinely. Plugging in in your garage should be MUCH more convenient for you!



Quote from jfk123 :
Also the fact that you glossed over despite me bringing it up repeatedly. In urban centers
Not only I not gloss over it- I directly replied to it in the very post you are responding to right now.

Pointing out the folks in those areas who can not charge represent a minority of the US population

I never claimed every American can charge at home.

Just most of them.

because that remains a fact, just like the last 10 times I told you that fact.



Quote from jfk123 :
where EV are the most beneficial, such as New York
NYC has arguably the best public transit in the US. Most people don't own a car of any kind

It's the opposite of the most beneficial place for an EV

The other cities you mention aren't QUITE as good, but they're still far better than most.

EVs are most beneficial in places where people actually drive a lot, so we can replace ICE miles with EV miles and the owners see more of a fuel savings than people who usually take a train somewhere in the city.



Quote from jfk123 :
So if my parking lot is not exactly the same size as my car, I have room to install a charger?

Oh... so suddenly you don't actually HAVE a garage, you only have a spot in a parking lot?

I mean, that DOES explain why you can't install a charger in a thing you don't have- but weird you kept claiming you had a garage until I pointed out how ridiculous your claims about it were and asked if you meant a parking lot... which I guess you did?



Quote from jfk123 :
Let's play a funny game. If I make a spot the EXACT SIZE of your car, try to open the car. I do wonder if you put any thoughts before you posted.
Look, someone in a Tesla thread who doesn't know how easily you can park the car without needing to be able to open the door once it's parked LMAOLMAOLMAO




Quote from jfk123 :
Where do you install a charger in a garage? If you want to not have it knocked over in a shared garage
I thought YOU had a garage.

Now you share it?

Or is it just a parking space again? You keep changing your story.


Quote from jfk123 :
, then ON A WALL either beside our car or behind it. If you don't have a wall to the side of your car then you're installing that couple of inches on the way BEHIND YOU, which means your car is more forward than it normally would be
Why would it mean that?

You simply mount it higher than the car and it has [/B] no impact at all[/B] on the car needing to be any more forward or backward than it was without the charger.


Quote from jfk123 :
. Again, even if you put some basic thought, you would have understood that simple concept.
The concept that you don't actually have a real garage and don't understand you can park a Tesla in a much tighter spot than a conventional car?


Quote from jfk123 :
Actually no, I didn't bring up a strawman.
Not "A' strawman, but several.



Quote from jfk123 :
I brought up that at that rate, you couldn't do anything more than the shortest range driving without using a supercharger
Except that remains factually untrue.

You can leave it plugged in at home for the amount the average American is home, and drive the amount of miles a day the average american drives, and have no issue at all even on 120v normal wall charging


Quote from jfk123 :
YOU on the other hand brought up 8 hours
I 100% did not.

You added that #, quite dishonestly.

Then keep doubling down by insisting I brought it up. I did not.


Quote from jfk123 :
As for Montauk to Manhattan, so I would have to rely on a supercharger instead of that 120V at home?.
For a road trip?

Of course. That is the point of the superchargers-- enabling road trips.

But that has nothing to do with home charging.

Even when I had a 240v plug at home I still needed a supercharger on a roadtrip.

Because my home does not fit inside my car to take with me.

How do you not understand that?



I eagerly await your NEXT batch of:

Misquoting what I actually said
Being mad at things I did not say
Personally insulting me for your misunderstandings and misquotes

There isn't a direct source, but I personally get 6MPH at home on my 120V, and you can see through Google that it's pretty common that people are getting 5-7MPH on their 5-20 adaptor.
I could be wrong, but NEMA 5-20 Gen 2 is 4 miles, no?

You can see 6-7 miles per hour charging here:

https://www.tesla.com/support/cha...le%20model.

I suppose that might be a gen 1 unit, but you can find lots of folks quite recently still citing getting 6 mph THIS year, and they haven't sold Gen 1 connectors in many years

For example:
https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaMod..._charging/

That guy is using it on a Y, which didn't exist until well after the Gen2 unit came out...


Multiple more folks confirming Gen2 and 5-20 gets you ~6 mph charge here:

https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/t...ed.231150/


And I mean, why wouldn't it?

Gen1 to Gen2 dropped max amps from 40 to 32...(but added other safety features)- 5-20 is only 16 amps, either can easily provide that.

if anyone is waiting for 2024 Jan 1st to order Tesla for the simplified ev credits ---
sorry to disappoint. Tesla and most EVs will jack up prices as inflation is kicking back and UAW strike is ON, it will be hard to find the make and models of your desire. Last but not least Since Tesla is focusing on ramping up cybertruck production come Nov - Dec , 3 and Ys availability will be limited at this price range. Good luck .

I eagerly await your NEXT batch of:

Misquoting what I actually said
Being mad at things I did not say
Personally insulting me for your misunderstandings and misquotes
You made the claim that an EV is good for the "vast majority" of America. Guess what, vast majority include those who rent or own, those that live in single-family detached as well as ALL those other types I listed, townhomes, rowhouses, condos, apartments. If you don't intend to explain how it would be convenient/beneficial/economical to ALL those "vast majority" then you could simply retract your claim and state instead that, in your opinion, it is convenient/beneficial/economical to single-family households. What a concept. But you know what, you haven't bothered justifiying such to single-family detached households either. Because peoplw who live in a single-family detached in a small/mid-sized town or middle of nowhere, there's a very good chance that they will NEVER recuperate the cost of owning and operating a Tesla. So congratulations on making no arguments in your favor what-so-ever.

You have to explain something to me? Go ahead, pretend I'm silly. Explain to me how a single-family detached rate as a percentage of housing supply is the same as home ownership rate. Let's play a game. Let's say a country of only 2 people that live in a 2 story condo. What's single-family detached house rate? I'm getting my pen and notepad. This should be good.

Quote you? Gladly.

You: "Which means charging overnight (most folks are home more than 8 hours a day) gives you back about as much range as the average American drives in a day."

Me:
"Oh and by the way, at least according to the Federal Highway Association, charging 8 hours (24 miles) overnight WOULDN'T give you as much as an American drives a day, which is 37 miles, so you're pretty much wrong there as well."

Uh actually, you're wrong. It is beneficial to travel by train WITHIN New York City. It is NOT beneficial to travel TO AND FROM New York City. Anybody who says so clearly has never taken the PATH, LIRR, MetroNorth/East/etc. What you're describing is a subset of more ore less sendentary people who don't travel. who don't go to cottage. who don't have kids with activities they will need to get to, which describe, gasp, MOST AMERICANS. And yet you're here giving the "it's better for the vast majority" BS.

I know this might be a foreign concept to you. An underground parking garage in a co-op, or a parking garage has that thing called a PARKING SPOT.

Let's me ask you a question. How wide does the door open on a Tesla. So you parked a Tesla, great. I guess you're just sitting there without getting out? Very possible since you don't seem to comprehend you need to give the door clearance. So let me ask you a follow up question then, can the parking spot be the EXACT SAME SIZE as your car, as you previously claimed? Go ahead. I'll wait.

I have a garage, it's a shared garage, it has parking spots, it even has walls and everything. But let's suppose I have a parking spot, does that in your brilliant mind negates the need for clearance? Hilarious.

Other than being a pedantic tool who can't grasp the simple concept that a garage has that thing called parking spots, I'm wondering what arguments have you actually brought to the discussion. I'm strongly considering the possibility that you were dropped on your head as a kid, but I feel that's an insult who were dropped on their head as kids.

The average American drive 37 miles a day. Your 120V charges at 3. Your 8 hours DOES NOT satisfy the typical American. Nor does 10, nor does 12. It takes 12 hours and 20 minutes, more than half a day, IF they don't forget to plug it in. IF they don't go out. IF they don't take road trips. IF they don't go home and grab something to eat and the out the door for something else and of course don't forget to charge when they come back. IF they don't visit and stay with friends and family. Yeah, that sure sounds like a "typical" American.

My dishonesty? I quoted you. Look above.

Let's summarize our nonsense. You claimed that a Tesla is convenient/beneficial/economical for the vast majority of Americans. To that end you even gave the 8 hours is enough nonsense. But guess what, using a supercharger at the rates they charge (even ignoring the parking rates in NYC at supercharger destinations which I noticed dropped from your list of rants) EATS AWAY ALL ECONOMIC BENEFIT, due to the cost of Tesla relative to ICE vehicles. Furthermore, due to the LACK of superchargers relative to gas stations or the fact that they charge slower, that EATS AWAY all CONVENIENCE BENEFITS TOO.

The only thing that make sense, whether daily commute or long distance travel is if your can reliably FAST CHARGE at home, to a threshold that drive you MOST OF THE WAY to where you want to go and then charge at destination. For that you need a home that YOU OWN but also is a SINGLE-FAMILY DETACHED. What a concept?

Like I said, the brick wall got it. Have it explain to you.

That guy is using it on a Y, which didn't exist until well after the Gen2 unit came out...


Multiple more folks confirming Gen2 and 5-20 gets you ~6 mph charge here:

And I mean, why wouldn't it?

Gen1 to Gen2 dropped max amps from 40 to 32...(but added other safety features)- 5-20 is only 16 amps, either can easily provide that.
The one I linked was Gen 2 as well. Interesting that on one 5-15 is rated 3 miles for Model Y and another is 5 miles. 4 and 7 for 5-20. They need to repair their website then since 5 and 7 is definitely better than 3 and 4.

How can you say a car that's only been available for four years last forever? Have you heard of battery degradation. In 10 years from now your battery range will be closer 200 miles if it still works. On top of this you aren't exempt from bearing replacement, tie rods, control arms and bushings. We have no idea how long these will cars will last.
facts. for my Model S 90D 2016: replaced screen (adhesive failed) - went ahead and just upgraded MCU $2k, door handles malfunctioning - $500, 92kwh battery replaced (thank god under warranty (free), sunroof adhesives and plastic fixed ($250) - was told it will happen every summer, replaced headlamp filament thingy ($500). Sure it's negligible across 7 years comes out to almost $500/year in cost. The battery replacement outside of warranty I think is 12k or 15k. I forgot which

The average American drive 37 miles a day. Your 120V charges at 3. Your 8 hours DOES NOT satisfy the typical American. Nor does 10, nor does 12. It takes 12 hours and 20 minutes, more than half a day, IF they don't forget to plug it in. IF they don't go out. IF they don't take road trips. IF they don't go home and grab something to eat and the out the door for something else and of course don't forget to charge when they come back. IF they don't visit and stay with friends and family. Yeah, that sure sounds like a "typical" American.
Looks like most MY are averaging 6 MPH on 120v outlets.

And if you forget to plug in, charging at a super charger will cost about 1/4 as much as gasoline:

I'm not denying your experience. But if that's the case then this one is on Tesla to fix a portion of their website. I can only rely on what is official data. This is especially unacceptable when on the Model Y order page, when you click "Learn More" on Mobile Connector, it stated "Using a standard household outlet can provide charging speeds of up to 3 miles of range per hour."
