Refinery issue
Supply and demand
Ukraine
The gas companies are changing the "blends" cause it's getting warmer
Carbon taxes/Trudeau
OPEC said some shit
California storms
Lisa Marie Presley just died
Any random excuse seems to satiate us idiots here in Vancouver who put up with this crap.

I need to run my math again to see at what price point (for gas) that the TM3 RWD would make sense in over a short enough duration...
Right now, it is not particularly convincing at $2/L at 10+ years LOL~

^TM3 RWD is not there to save you $$$$
Hence why I am now 55K financially worse compared to last week.

It’s also 0-60 in 5.3 seconds on the base model. Not only are you just paying ratrolla prices. You’ll pretty much destroy everything else on the road.
Value proposition isn’t half bad for the price.

Value proposition isn’t half bad for the price. | 0-60 in 5.3 for 2021 and older Model 3 Sr+(RWD) with NCA battery
0-60 in 5.8 for 2022 and newer Model 3 RWD with LFP battery which weighs 275lbs more than NCA battery.

Somehow oil companies are making record profits so doesn't seem like the supply issue from the war is preventing necessary supply from getting to market. If that was the case we'd see massive price spikes as well as huge shortages instead of "well we need to charge you more cause one day we might be short"

Yay to $2.65/L by the summer, which probably means it'll be $3+/L for the 93/94 octane gas that I use... https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2023/0...-2023-records/

why don't we start charging EV purchases a surplus for the infrastructure upgrades and charging lots we're going to need?

I mean, kinda, yeah, because to run those cars you pay taxes on fuel, and purchase price.
