I think the opposite. The middle class drives their cars daily or at least
weekly.

As long as I know what I have to do, this would not dissuade me from getting a
Tesla.
Of course, if you hooked your bricked Tesla to a "dumb" charger and it
caught on fire, maybe, the ins co would pay for that. The fire from a 3
cell 11.1v LiPo RC battery pack is spectacular, so a fire from a pack with
hundreds of times more capacity would result in very little recognizable

As long as I know what I have to do, this would not dissuade me from getting a
Tesla. I'll pay an extra buck or two a day for airport parking that let's me
plug in. A market driven economy will adapt to the needs of electric car
drivers.

I'm confused. I know it's not good to discharge lead-acid batteries or even

Why are these lithium batteri
es incapable of recharge when fully discharged?

Of course, it never made any sense that a company would put a product on
the market that could render itself useless under a normal use case.

6 volt batteries in a golf cart act the same way. Once they are dead, you need
to find the two primary Batteries and hook up a regular 12 volt charger to wake
them up.

I was thinking about possibly purchasing the Toyota/Tesla RAV4 soon to be
available, but am reconsidering after reading this. The same situation is
possible with the Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries that I use in my
radio-controlled truck, and that was a shock to me at nearly $70.00 for a

Maybe the Chevy Volt isn't so bad after all. At least is has a self

garbage at the expense of US Taxpayers and not backing it up needs to stop.
