"Let them eat cake."
Can these fuel price displays be formatted so the decimal point can move one spot to the right?

Ford’s Lightening battery is expected to last 250,000+ miles. Muchmuch longer than most people own a vehicle. 100,000 mile warranty.How long are these EV batteries supposed to last? And how much is a replacement battery?
Don’t worry you get an 8 year 100,000 mile warranty. Then it’s only 15-20k to replace.I know when an electric forklift has its battery take a shit you are generally better off buying a new lift instead of a new battery.

Anecdotal but I know a guy with a Tesla Model S. He's had it for 5 years and has spent less than $5k in maintenance (mostly software updates). That's on top of the $0 he spends on gas.And how long before diminishing returns start showing up?
Again, basing it off electric forklifts...as batteries age they hold less and less of a charge. With a new lift you might be able to go 1 week without plugging it in depending on workload - but eventualy you have to charge it during lunch to make sure it can make it to the end of the shift.
Batteries don't go from working to not. It's a slow death.
Not sure I'll be too eager to drop $20k on a vehicle with 120k miles.Don’t worry you get an 8 year 100,000 mile warranty. Then it’s only 15-20k to replace.

So $5,000 in five years for fuel and maintenance. No gas-powered car in the world comes close to that.
Not true anymore. Now that there are more competitors that's dropped massively.Time to charge an EV to go500400300200 miles? 8 fucking hours
