    Redline hood struts, oversized tires.
    I can see it now! Chinese companies making adapter kits for Teslas where you can just stack in a whole bunch of AA batteries like they do for every other product made! hahaha

    Can you just imagine the horror of a large city without the haze of smog? No more burning eyes, and gorgeous sunsets. And the noise, where did it go? How dare 'they' take that away from me!

    I'm certain that many of these people complaining about EVs are the same ones who complained that fuel injectors are coming to "tAkE oUR cArBs!!"

    That’s for secretly saying racist shit about the new people who just moved in down the street when it wasn’t even them who stole everything out of your unlocked car.
