Name them.
There is nobody in this conversation who wants to do that.
There are lots of people. But they aren't here.
Yah, watching them say that's what they want to do on FOX is different than the same video on CNN. Gotcha.

They did not drive the car until failure. They all had range left.Tesla Fails To Meet EPA Range With All Its Cars In Edmunds' Tests

Read it again. The follow up test.
Tesla fudged the #'s? Shocked, shocked, I tell you! And I like Elon Musk. Brilliant man.
If you want to know where the future of transportation is headed all you have to do is to simply remember what "Deep Throat" (Mark Felt) told Woodward and Bernstein..... "Follow the money".

Analysis: Towing 10,000 Pounds With An Electric Truck Requires A Battery Pack As Heavy As A Ford friend-150 Raptor
Dad’s Prius has more than 190000 miles on it with the original battery. It’s a 2005.

Wow, your dad drove a PRIUS for FedEx?
Does the car give you a breakdown on how many of those miles were driven on the battery vs the engine?
That’s a good question. I doubt it though since a good deal of the mileage on a hybrid utilizes both at the same time.
No. But it is 2021 now so it might be possible that in that time battery and other technologies have evolved considerably. I would bet on it actually.
I wouldn’t say that. Ford, GM and every other auto manufacturer are deeply invested in electric vehicles with billions of dollars. Tesla may be king today but in the next few years they’ll be defending on all sides trying to maintain market share.
Better batteries appear to be on the horizon. Solid state batteries that will allow an 80% charge in about 10 minutes.

Billions isn't enough. Tesla's technology and manufacturing advantage is large and growing bigger every day. They're not catching up.
