.....Then, later, you came in with your suggestion that EVs will substitute for night time/ poor weather, power generation.! Which i asked you to clarify exactly how that might work.. ...And which you have managed to avoid answering by diverting the thread to another trivial argument...as usual ! N...

You have any idea how many times I herd the work "Never" in this industry... .. We can never solve this climate problem...... And here is another for you.. You can NEVER solve a problem that does not exist .! ....but you will create other problems in the process. Bahaha what is it you don't think e...

. China is a world leader in solar and it won't be long until they shut down all coal power plants. If you look at the total number of coal power plants and compare it to the total amount of energy they are using and then look at solar you will see a lot more energy is coming from solar. You are li...

Also things are changing faster then you realize. https://unearthed.greenpeace.org/2017/10/11/china-halts-150-coal-fired-power-plants/ And maybe faster than you think...since that was a 2017 article !... And as i guess you did not read the 2018 article i posted above.... https://www.businessinsider...

259 GW of new coal plants (approx 400 plants) under construction in China. https://www.chinadialogue.net/blog/10761-China-is-building-coal-power-again/en 40+ in Japan 100 +in India Etc.. Accurate numbers are wooly at best but a Total of 1600 world wide is often reported .... Hardly a reduction in c...

.....go and tell that to China, Germany, India, Africa, etc, etc, .. Actually they are reducing their fossil fuel dependency. Some still use peaker plants but as this all ramps up its changing fast. https://energypost.eu/chinas-green-energy-revolution-has-saved-the-country-from-catastrophic-depende...

Subsidize the cars and subsidize the building of charging stations around these rural coal burning areas so that an electric car has a path through the boonies and into more interesting places. Oh, the environmentalists will still hate it, but it makes absolute sense from a business perspective. Mo...

Lots of Tesla 3 teardowns now seem to show that the motor, battery and electronics are good but the car itself is a near disaster. Too many parts, too many different types of fastener, not made to be manufactured or serviced, the list goes on and on. Clearly they rushed and messed this up. Too bad,...

Lmfao Elon doesn't want to leave Tesla. He has no need for the money. If all he wanted was money he would have retied with his 140 million or what ever it was when he sold paypal. He is Tesla to say Tesla needs to get rid of him as a CEO is like saying they need to hang them selves and quit selling ...

Top 1 2 and 3 best selling BEVs in the US are Tesla.

Beastie they have more pre-orders now and the number is growing. They haven't even started to advertise yet.

Your long ass post is all Fake news lol.

This is true, but I think the issue with Alta will be resolved very quickly. I sure hope it is. Dude!!! Me too. I have 20k sitting here from Selling my 1969 road runner which is ear marked for our Performance Model 3... But I am temped to get the Alta while I wait for the rest of my money to come i...

VERY FIRST Comment on the video! bwhaskell 2 months ago Having ridden the MXR for an entire day, swapping on an off between it and my KX450, i have to say i disagree with most of your assessment. Yes, the Alta weighs a bit more than a 450. However, since the electric motor has so little inertia (the...

That guy rides way, way better than either of you, arlo or macribs. The overheating isn't an opinion or bad guess on weight distribution it's a unavoidable consequence of someone riding the bike hard. Multiple people (all fast) have ridden the bike and had the same issue. The owner brings it out ev...

Hard to tell if the video you posted is the real deal or if this was a review made by a rider that has not yet gotten used to the power delivery of the MXR. If you see the comments below there are two that kind of says he is all wrong about most of it, including the overheating. And the weight dist...

Dude your friend has a MX not a MXR.

The tires, brake pads, and chains/sprockets are general purpose items, so they will remain available from a third-party seller. I am curious about what parts are "Alta-specific", and might wear out. Buy a spare of X, Y, and Z...if you own an Alta. They appear to be pretty wonderful. Just the chain ...

It's not hidden costs it's options that cost money and at this point they dont sell cars without those options. I don't like that. But if it's a move that keeps Tesla alive while they work to bring out the $35000 car then it's the only option. Some people don't understand that. But at the same Time ...

Banned from racing with ICE bikes etc. Class rules in mx have always prohibited electric from running with ICE bikes, although you could run it in open class if you can find one. Also, with a intermediate or expert rider the battery can only do a few laps of riding before overheating and losing pow...

Nice work. Where did you get the rear sprocket machined at and what did it cost?

As well once we tackle mars then traveling out further will become more realistic. Right. And once we tackle even the Moon, then the technology to transport people and material safely develops a lot more rapidly. There are all kinds of benefits for space exploration. Right. And I am saying for the ...

As well once we tackle mars then traveling out further will become more realistic.

You keep bringing up single scenereos that you have confidence humans can overcome here. While forgetting the goal is to have self sufficient humans on another planet. The chance what's left of the humans will be able to rebuild after something really bad happening is impossible to predict because y...

If it's a big enough meteor then mars for sure. Really? You'd rather die instantly? Not much hope for humanity, then. Haha Trick question. I was amusing I was living in a space camp on mars. And my home here on earth was destroyed. What the goal is to have 2 or more planets with humans on them and ...

Awesome, it was about time someone properly derailed this thread

Lol yup. Tesla has been busy knocking it out of the park so the Trolls don't have a lot to feed off of right now..
