the bigger picture with electric cars .. is total control of the power grid ..if the grid goes down ? yeah wake up to Musk he’s a puppet in plain sight with his come follow me pied piper game 😏
Tesla don't need tesla cars ,he as everything else
What if Tesla self driving already is successful but the government realized it would cost so many jobs that they decided to shelf it as a DOD project ?
Watch: 'Sandy's take on the Tesla Layoffs!' and you will be better informed.
@@youxkio Maybe in the US and some other countries. But the rest? Or are they other (local) teams, doing work for Tesla? (I think yes.)
The car manufacturers should at THIS point by now be making absolutely trouble free 700,000 mile
55 mpg gas 15,000 dollar cars!!
why?
The more complexity, the lower the reliability and long term durability.
The reliability was improving for Ford and GM until they moved everything to Mexico and decided that lowest cost bid manufacturing was the preferred paradigm. Doing so also reintroduced planned obsolescence. Aren't we lucky? Sarcasm😊
Planned obsolescence strikes again!
@@asajayunknown6290 - assembly is a different issue from R&D which has been declining at GM and Ford since the 70s. Assembly in Mexico is cheaper than in Canada but the quality is also lower.
EVs were hugely profitable... when subsidized by the taxpayer. I love paying for rich mens' toys while I drive a 20 year old car.
Well your taxes also went to oil subsidies too, so I guess you're still paying for rich mens' toys, just in the middle east instead lol
@@RxPharmer the oil subsidies directly benefit every ICE driver. The difference here is ICE works, EV doesn't.
@Ziegfried82 If that's what you tell yourself to make you feel better. All that money going straight to the Saudis. Meanwhile, I spent my money on an American car and my electricity is produced right here in the USA 🇺🇸
Actually EVs do work. Been driving them for well over 3 years now. Never had an issue. Can't say the same for my previously owned ICE vehicles.
You keep making them Saudis richer though! 🤣
Rich people dont get the $7500 tax refund. There is an income cap on it, unfortunately
@@PelosiStockPortfolio in most countries ev's are subsidized by lower taxes on the ev, while costing enough that you need to be rich to buy one.
also largely subsidized by energy taxation, since you can burn oil to make electricity and still come up ahead without the taxes vs. gasoline taxes in most countries. oil production subsidies tend to lower market cost of oil, which gives less money to saudis.
as for buying a 100k ev and saving money, sure if you don't count it against a 50k car. if the 30k car is taxed like in most countries to be a 60k car because it is gasoline then absolutely you're as that guy paying for the rich mans 100k ev - this isn't really any sort of a debate even in most countries since it was stated government policy in most western countries to do exactly that to get more ev's on the road, which was the entire reasoning for letting ev's be sold at much lower value taxation through the co2 rating taxation mechanisms. more often though it leads to buying a phev, which has theoretical lower co2 and the hybrid system is essentially a free bolt on due to how much it lowers taxes but again for the richer side of the folks.
I drive about 25k miles a year. There is NO way I'm waiting for a Charge in an EV, when I can fill my Honda and Ford in 2 min.
Do it for lunch 🤷♂️
If you are not able to install a charger at your home, and you consistently drive more than 300 miles in a day, stick with gas as long as you can. Otherwise, the Model Y gets 320 miles per charge, you can fully charge each night while you sleep for less than $15, and if you need to charge on the go you can get an 80% charge in 15-20 minutes. If you just need an extra 100 miles on top of the 320 mile range that is not much slower than putting gas in your car. Maintenance for the Tesla is much less than four gas vehicles, and their performance is much better than gas vehicles. It’s really a no-brainer.
And by the way, I drive 20,000 miles each year, and I will be buying a model Y very soon. While I would prefer 400 miles or more of range, 320 miles should be more than enough 99% of the time.
@@alexanderboulton2123 Let the car decide where you eat lunch? You are the best slave ever!
@@guildguitars6349 It's a joke. In real world conditions tesla fall 30% short of their claimed mileage. Just 60mph highway driving they won't make the range. The range claim is based on a steady 28mph.
@@robertkubrick3738you’re a joke, you’ve obviously never owned a Tesla and are just listening to other anti EV sheep like Scotty!
1972 Oldsmobile Toronado still running fine. Oil changes, tires, brakes, transmission fluid is all in 52 years.
You can buy a lot of gas for that beast with what you're not spending on a car payments.😆
My 1979 Chevrolet Malibu Coup With 42000 kms Still Like New, We Have To Keep Our Old Technology THAT WORKS.
Are the tornados front wheel drive in 72? I miss my ol Cutlass. You really pay for a nice olds now if you can find one.
@@mr.monitor. My 80 Cutlass still rolling, in -40 weather LOL
Same here with a 1966’ Oldsmobile 98, that surprisingly has a lot of features today’s cars have….factory automatic ac, cruise control, auto dimming headlights, power everything….just to make a few
The vast majority of the population doesn't work on stuff mechanically and so cannot see that adding needless tech is a recipe for failure. We should be building for longevity not scrap, put a pile of energy back i,n and produce a new one. That's environmental stupid. All manufacturers are going for smaller motor's that are blown and all this means is fractional fuel improvements and an engine that runs half as long.
My work car went from a 2.5L Forester to a 1.5 turbo Equinox that's smaller and gets substantially worse mileage and has a smaller gas tank. I doubt it will last long after the warranty either. 😒
Planned obsolescence. That's the name of the game
come on Bro, your killing my chinese recycle business.
@@jimbonater deeply regret selling my 2.5L forester last year. It was 15 years old, so I thought time for an upgrade. Little did I know that all the new foresters have CVTs and other brands have all sorts of fragile tech. Had to settle on a new Mazda. Still has more tech than I wish it did.
The EPA only rates MPG. They don't care how much it costs, how long it will last, nor how expensive to repair.
""the politicians need to get their heads out of their rear ends" that is a quote from Scotty.
That's a quote from every old man over 60 since the dawn of time 😂
@@alexanderboulton2123 Only because it takes some people a long time to realize that it's an eternal truth.
The real question is does he like the energy idea of replacing it obviously with a battery supplement where the battery would store the power such as Elon musk suggest lol won't give him credit though lol also he said some b******* about billionaires I wonder how much money he has in his bank account, guarantee you he's comfortable... Average bank account is like 300 bucks by the way That's like 70% of the populace in United States... Not to mention 7 to $9,000 debt averaged for I believe credit card, I'm trying to say anyone looks rich to people with nothing and no financial education to do something about it like buying Tesla stock and waiting until 2030
if they HAVE heads at all ;)
This generation was seeking the truth, well, they can't handle the truth.
And loads of at least European governments are ramming these rich mans toys down our throats. I can't afford a new fossil fuel car............how can I then afford a new EV which is a lot more expensive ? Used EVs are crap with degraded batteries that cost a ton to replace, no such issues with used fossil fuel cars, fill it up and go. EV are not necessarily 'cheaper' or 'cleaner' to drive either, it just depends what people focus on and choose to ignore.
During the 1974 oil crisis they told us the world would run out of oil in 10 years, but we have greater known oil reserves today 50 years later.
Oil used to cost 10 cents a barrel to produce. The more oil you use, the higher the cost of extraction. And there is a real CO2 issue.
The oil will eventually run out. Then what?
Oil was formed during a period of millions of years, in the past 150 years we have used up just a few thousand years of those millions of years, meaning we still have thousands of years left going at the current rate. In that time we will discover probably infinite energy sources alternatives to oil
Maybe because back in 1974 shale oil extraction wasn't as common as it is today, and overall volumes were lower.
The world will never run out of oil, the fungus makes oil as the bees make honey.
The entire EV industry is collapsing in on itself. Toyota knew. They knew.
We all knew. Certain political party had a lot of money to be made on electric vehicles.
No,only Tesla collaps,the ev industry is fine!
@@robertthomas5906yeah, how’s your truck industry doing? ROFL, the entire car market is bad, but you lot just blame EVs. The ford and ram dealership have lots full of $80k trucks including 2023 models. Tesla is a special case because Elon talks too much for his own good, alienating your customer base for tax cuts is genius.
@@brunoheggli2888 Really? Only Tesla and BYD are able to make EVs for a profit. That suggests that everyone else making EVs is far from "fine".
EV IS THE FUTURE, AMERICANS ARE JUST SLOW ,THE REST OF THE WORLD GOES EV QUICK !
Soon Elon will call:
Elon: "Scotty, What should I do?"
Scotty: "Build'em like a '94 Toyota Celica!"
Scotty:
'I can't help YOU. You screw everything UP! You just play around with your stupid money! GET a life!!! '.
1974 celica was the best

People hate EV’s, start and stop cars, and CVT transmissions
Thorium went into Canadian CANDU reactors recently.........the energy yield from the fuel assembly bundle was increased 700%. Which also means 700% less waste. The ironic part is that Thorium was investigated in depth during the Manhattan project........it was useless for making weapons, but it was better than Uranium for running power reactors.
Safer but not better. They need constant input or the reaction stops, so that makes it safer, but it also is a big power drain, make it cost more per megawatt. It also does not make as many useful medical isotopes as a byproduct.
Thorium in CANDU has been done since 1970s in tests.
actually you can breed Thorium into weapons material, just not as convenient are uranium. But we do have thorium sufficient for at least 10,000 years of reactor fuel
Forget your reactors. I predict we will be commuting by Starship..... 3rd Q 2025.....latest.
In 1950, fusion reactors were 50 years away.
Today, fusion reactors are 50 years away.
In 2150, fusion reactors will be 50 years away.
they said that about shale oil.....oooopppppssss
Darn it that fusion is just too fast for me
In other words, nuclear fusion reactors are right on the horizon.
only if in 2150 we still have technology, there might be a fission event before then at this rate.
So do you think fusion reactors are not physically possible?
What makes me mad is we all knew what a bad idea this was. How much material was wasted? I don't want to hear about carbon footprints when these "green" companies keep producing waste.

I rented one on turo, they are a blast to drive. Lots of power. I see how people can be interested in these cars.
He is right on small nuke reactors. They are not new, but new to US. We are stupid for not embracing this, yesterday.
How are small reactors new to the U.S when we've been using them on Submarines and Carriers????
@@gary.s7759 I meant new for electrical power generation for towns. Obviously they have been used by the military. But that technology is still different also. I'm talking about energy for 2-300,000 people on a daily basis. Very doable.
@@paulchapman1933 When Philippines had a lot of damage from a Super Typhoon, a carrier parked off of the island of Cebu powered the city.
Small modular reactors make no economic sense. That fact is clear from all of the failed projects - which fail because no-one can make money from them. As for "but nuclear powered ships!". They only make sense when the government (tax payer) is picking up all of the cost and all of the risk and has minimal regulatory issues because it's for defense. You just can't compare the two.
Still, the old ones are a huge source. See my other post

News Google it
No one said no growth. Growth reduced. After all Ford and GM have put their EV growth on ICE so it's reasonable to trim charger growth.
I don't always agree with Scotty, but today I think he has it right on.
Same, this video is really on point!
Elon made his $$ now he is cutting his losses.
If he was cutting his losses he would dump Twitter. It is dying.

@@toriless How does he dump Twitter? It's a private company, and it's his only hobbie.
@@torilesswell it's not is it?? Traffic is growing.
I live near Washington, D. C., and our beltway around the city is usually clogged during rush hours, and at other times too, due to construction of new lanes, repairs, whatever. Most days, you will see literally thousands of cars barely moving, and if it's hot, they are all running their AC units, eating up more fuel. The problem is not that our cars are inefficient, the problem is the road grid can't handle them all. Mass transit here is a joke: it is how we tell poor people that their time doesn't matter. --Old Guy
I saw a Tesla pickup yesterday. I wish I could unsee it.

It takes 6 minutes to fill my Camry gas tank to drive 300 miles. Some model EV's take over an hour to recharge for the same distance. If we ever reach a point where Gas cars and EV's have equal number of cars on the road, we will need at least 10 (ten) chargers to equal one gas pump to meet consumer demand. There is no way to achieve this in the next 10 years!
You can charge at home, but you can't fill your gas tank up at home.
Only really relevant for road trips and long distance driving otherwise an ev is the same as a gas car for here and there driving
Yep exactly. My car takes 3.5 minutes to fill and will go 500 miles. EVs don't stand a chance. I do alot of cross country driving and Canada/US driving and an electric car will never be feasible.

There isnt enough power to support that many chargers. Thats why there are no 25-50 stall stations.
Good point
@@14lou Good, but wrong.
Not really
@@scottgaree7667 a 25 stall super charger would use more power than a small town. It would be a lot of conduit to carry that and it will be very expensive to install. All semi truck charging stations would need their own gas power plant. We simply do not produce enough electricity to replace all the energy that we get from fossil fuels. And we don't have a way to do so. Solar and wide are not enough and we could build it fast enough to get there before the old ones break.
@@maxwellblackwell5045 Just in case my link doesn't go through, that's a 56 charger station. There are lots more big ones.

Toyota was right all along.
All the woke crowd went after them.
Most Tesla owners dont use the Supercharger network except maybe occasionally. So, that cutback means nothing to most owners.
Also why most Tesla owners still have a gas SUV.
But it means everything to potential buyers that don’t have a place for a charger at home, which is most people. Condo and apartment dwellers and house renters will all be lost as customers if they don’t have easy charging options. It’s a disaster because most people already have range anxiety.
@jagpilotohio Many condo and apartment dwellers have access to level2 charging. My employer has multiple level 2 chargers in the parking garage for employee use. Since most of my charging this last month was at the office, the over 1000 miles I drove cost me $1 for the few kWh I charged at home last month. 5 years, only fluids needed was wiper fluid.

This is his daily dose of aerobic exercise. Notice the hands and arms moving up and down. Back and forth. The torso rocking and swaying from side to side. Rapid breathing between sentences.
I think this is what is keeping him from a heart attack.
Rant on Scotty. Rant on.
@@1Springloaded 🤣🤣😁😁I tough he was goanna say Tesla Just Fired Their CEO Elon Musk.😂😂😏😏Rant on Scotty🤣🤣
Field techs to install and repair charging stations are needed at this point.
Not engineers, sales people, or high priced VPs.
He fired redundant staff,
....like any good CEO of a publicly traded company would, exercising his fiduciary duty.
Charging station locations are actually increasing.
At over 100 billion in net worth, I don't think Elon is sweating it
Yup and your tax money along with others helped him aquire his fortune. In carbon tax credits.
Robotic aliens don't sweat.
200 Billion
Pschopath dont sweat the people he scams
He lost over $200 billion of worth in just over 2 years. That would make anyone sweat.
The only exec that they should fire is still there.
Just saw on today in CT on side of highway... I smiled and thought I know what's wrong with it... " It ain't got no gas in it" 😂😂😂
Don’t forget about their “super car” sub one second 0-60mph roadster which has just been a written promise on paper for the last like 10 years.
@scotty kilmer just bought 16 frontier 2.5l auto shifts fine is it safe to change transmission filter at this mileage?? Or extraction fill or leave alone thanks scotty
EVs are not going to be a viable mode of transportation due to cost of production
And unsustainable demands on the environment
Lack of raw material combined with US hostility to China means EVs are DOA.
A friend of mine told me in Austin,Texas they are adding on to the Tesla plant. It looks like a city itself. Musk bought a 140 acre tract of land by Bastrop. He is going to build houses on it for his employees to live and he is going to build an underground highway from there to his plant for them to use to come to work.
The Jetsons
Yeah. Sure he is.
😂
You believe?
I will believe it when I see it.
Thanks scotty for informing me about the older corrollas. Had it 5 years now 2001 model hatchback manual. Best car ive owned.
off topic but
Is a 2007 Ford Mustang Premium Convertible v6 with 95,000 miles between 3 owners with no accidents for about 5,000 dollars a good deal?
The old dodge inline 6 was a gem as far as reliability went, hope he new design is as solid.
They are on the right track with inline 6es but should be non-turbo. Some other car company will figure it out and sell many vehicles.
The 4.0 straight 6 they ran in Jeeps was bullet proof. OEM garage told me that during cash for clunkers, they had to dose them 2-3 times to get them to blow up.
DOUBT IT JUNKKKKKKKKK
@@PassivePortfolios Be interesting to know a non-turbo HP.
@@Nobody92421yep my 96 Cherokee was a tank. Oil changes and tune up once and a while and it never failed.
Let me guess, all his free Government Grant money is drying up.
I’m on Toyota Yaris 2020. It’s 200k miles, still running very strong, saving a lot of money on gas.
I almost bought 10k worth of Tesla stock 6 months ago. At that time it was 285 a share. Its now at 170 a share. Thank God i didn't buy in. Tesla is on the way down. This past winter wounded them greatly.
Funny how people with little to no Ev experience have the strongest hate towards them. Most of what they think is incorrect. I say this as a gear head who was anti-Ev for years. But I finally stopped being all talk and purchased one to see for myself. I ended up liking it. The one thing I miss and struggle with is no exhaust sound. Which, no exhaust is good seeing as how I’ve lost roughly 15% of my hearing from my younger days racing auto-x and drag racing. No ear plugs, young and dumb.
I drive my Hondas and Toyotas for 20+ years. When they can go that long with regular maintenance I'll consider anEV. However electronics And the EV battery will last half that at best.
@@m1kcan1 was right there with you. I have a 2004 Corolla with 312,000 miles. Keeping it going was adding up. Decided to try an Ev. Battery repair is becoming more common and is much cheaper than replacement. No different than spending thousands over the last 20 years to keep the Corolla going. I still have the Corolla, love it. But I don’t miss the maintenance. Over one year on the Ev and have done nothing. Corolla I’ve done several oil changes, a brake job and trans filter. That trans oil is running $10 a qt minimum 6 qt purchase.
@@whatsay8406 Batteries degrade over time whether or not they are driven. You won't be able to 'fix up' a 20yr old EV when the battery is shot. EVs will ruin the used car market no one will want to buy 10+yr old EVs. Well maintained ICE can run for decades.
My friend working in Japan said her company is designing small nuclear reactors.
SCOTTY, I bought a Toyota Corolla new in 2007 and it’s still my every day car. 5 speed manual. It has 135k miles and I’ve always changed the oil every 5k miles. Nothing has ever gone wrong with it. How much longer do I have to wait before I can get a new car?
Any other beat up stories for the remainder of the year?
Went through 3 engines in my Wrangler. Sold it. Co.ete trash. Barely even drove it...
The only good jeeps are pre 2000. My 1996 grand Cherokee with the 4.0L Inline 6 was bulletproof.
I was presented a Tesla as problem. The driver had it down at near zero. Were I work we have nothing other than a normal out of doors 120 V plug in. I charged him 40 dollars for access. He needed 5 hours to get to a nearby town. One hour for maybe two miles.
Why they won't build small module reactors is when thorium decays it doesn't produce plutonium and they need the plutonium to replace the plutonium cores in there missiles
Tesla isn’t going under.
Why do people call these things “EV’s” (Electric Vehicles)? It would be more accurate to call them “BV’s” (Battery Vehicles). If a Tesla is an EV, then my iPhone is an EP… Electric Phone 😂
They are BEV and they do run on electricity so the name EV is also correct
it's not called a "Battery Phone" either.
@@OmerSadkAytac I simply made an unusual and extreme comparison… and an iPhone could be called a battery phone if calling a Tesla an electric vehicle is appropriate.
Anyone who isn't watching Common Sense Skeptic and Thunderf00t for Musk takedown is missing out.
I work at Ryder/GM plant in Spring Hill Tennessee and UPS in La Vergne and both are cutting hours. I blame home values and rentals as being way too high. We are heading toward a depression. Money Supply 2 (MS2) is -2. In the past 150 years we have had 4 depressions, and whenever it was -2 or worse we had a depression. Good luck guys.
I just saw a crash in Houston last weekend involving 2 identical Tesla's

8400 super charger stations in America , almost Zero in the middle of the country
To be fair why would they be put in places where nobody owns the things? Almost nobody in the middle of the nations drive EVs.
Vandalism of superchargers is a problem. The cable should be with the car, not the charger. Access to the charger connector should be protected mechanically until the charge card is accepted.
My mother suzuki italian fiat 1.3l diesel engine burning 2 mm of oil every 10 000km... clocking 22 years 170 000km no issues a part of replacing heaters 4 years ago because in winter starting it up was horendous for the starter...
Elon Ponzi ev scam
Guys a government panhandler. And he's a w.e.f. member.
Scotty, I love you and I ain’t buying an electric car.. but don’t bet against Elon. He got distracted with other ventures and is lazer focused again with Tesla hence the cleaning house. Tesla is not failing and cars are not their main long term source of revenue.
Huh? What's their long term goal is?
Canceling the model 2 was a big mistake. Stock plummeted and then they lied and said don't believe us, we are making a mod 2 in the future, yeah, that's the ticket. Ever notice that from announcement to actual delivery of tesla products is about 5 years beyond when they were supposed to be sold?

I already knew… I just had to wait for the world to catch up.
Not building more supercharging locations... in NYC. That sounds like a reasonable financial decision, actually.
Elon should go to Mars so we don't have to hear from him anymore!
Oh no Tesla is going out of business for the 10,000th time.
So Wise , Thank You
I've owned a tesla for 4 years without any issues.
Tesla layoffs accelerating.
It’s far more than super charging network now.

The fusion "miracle" was "just around the corner" when I was a physics graduate student in 1968. These days, we are much better informed about "why" it will never happen. (eg. How much Beryllium is needed vs. how much exists.) But.. the physicists assure us that it's still "just around the corner".
Long shape... Look at the sun
Wrong shape
Besides all the priceless advice and wisdom Scotty gives us concerning automobiles. It’s worth subscribing to his channel just to listen to him trash Elon Musk, Tesla and EV’s in general 😂
Scotty your obsession is really getting out of control. Did you take your meds? I don’t disagree with everything you say but I also don’t agree with everything. 😅😅😅😅😅
And if he just offered gasoline-hybrid teslas, he probably wouldn't be going broke. Nobody wants electric cars.
If nobody wants electric cars why was the Tesla Model Y the best selling car WORLDWIDE last year?
Because people are buying SUVs not cars... simple!
@@hughsavage2136You do realize that Tesla sells two SUV models? I guess you don't....
As I said a couple of years ago, Tesla has to decide whether it is just an EV maker or an automotive vehicle maker.
You will know when Tesla gets it right when they make an internal combustion engined car as a hedge against the absolute uncertainty of the EV market.
Don’t know what Scotty’s obsession is with putting down an American company employing Americans. Tesla is an innovator
scotty 100 % right about him
