the only best use for EV's are for in town, maximum 50 km"s outside of town. Anyone know how long it takes to let's say go from Grande Prairie to Red Deer in an EV, and return? I can tell you by gas, if it's within 15% then it might be viable, otherwise BS.

Tesla’s Cybertruck, touted for its rugged design, faced a bizarre setback at a car wash. After the wash, the 6,600-pound truck shut down, rendering its console blank and transforming it into a giant metal brick.

Despite its intended off-road prowess, the vehicle struggled with mundane tasks. Tesla advises against washing the truck in direct sunlight to prevent corrosion, and offers a special “Car Wash Mode.”

“Failure to put Cybertruck in Car Wash Mode may result in damage,” the company’s manual reads. “Damage caused by car washes is not covered by the warranty.”

best to kick these POs down the road now while you still can! one of the biggest us automakers is facing Chapter 11, because sales of EV's are Zilch, also there other vehicles are having more than a few transmission problems! sad really.
