He is typical of someone who believes everything he reads in the MSM, including how bad and evil China is, although he’s probably not ever been there. But it’s all good. That’s what makes some of these threads interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only quoted part of my post making your statement incorrect as you missed that my post was about choosing between a Tesla and a BYD in Thailand. Yes CTs have V2L but you can’t buy them in Thailand and currently you would struggle to buy one in America “I purchased a BYD Seal AWD Performance and it was cheaper than the cheapest Tesla you can buy in Thailand.” 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some time ago I predicted TSLA would tank once the market realized that the company is an electric car company and not an AI company. That's happened soon after. I think reports of Must taking drugs and the X debacle have also weighed on TSLA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this response from a poster on that thread “I assume this is a Mazda 2 or 3. They go bad frequently and we replace a lot in the UK.” In all fairness, I owned a (BRAND NEW) Mazda 2 for 5 years. It was relatively free motoring (apart from having to have a service every 6 months) until the key sensor gave up the ghost. Mazda CM tried to tell me that the Panasonic CR 2032 lithium batteries I had in my keys were too “fat” and that I should use the OEM Mazda CR 2032 lithium batteries (which were made by Panasonic). So I’m going to wear the hat of an anti-EVer and state conclusively that Panasonic batteries are garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOr some reason they give them 5 stars (the top award). Obviously the independent EURO NCAP people should pay more attention to an anti Chinese shouty YouTube channel rather than do real tests. 3 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
