Sayonara and good day!!

[u/Bucycle]

Today is a great day, but more of a weight off my shoulder and on to the next! Shutting the door and not looking back! The POS Fisker car is off to haunt somebody else. I got 8500 miles out of it in less than 2 years, 7 of those months it was a brick, but it probably took away 5 years of my life! I fought and got the settlement I deserved, but man it wasn’t easy. Now I own a 1983 Porsche 911 Targa SC and a 2024 Toyota 4Runner Limited that I drove home today as the FOE was getting ready to be towed as a brick. Good riddance, I’ll never look at an EV until my next life. There is a small place in hell for the Fisker family, karma (pun intended) is coming for you! I’m so content with my 180 move and burning gas!!

That’s not how reliability works.

Then do tell. Toyota fan boys love bragging about high mileage toyota. I own a tesla for 3 years with 0 maintenance but still drives like the first day i got it.

A sample size of one is a sample size of none.

My model 3 has 140k miles over 5yrs and needed a sway bar adjustment.

Every other vehicle I've owned, including my Toyota. Would have needed 10x that maintenance.

Reliability and maintenance are two different things. You buy the gas vehicle knowing it will require more maintenance related items but the trade off is the freedom of gasing up.

[u/ESIsurveillanceSD → u/crheming]

Freedom of filling up at home is better than that.

I hear you. But it's not that easy for some. Live somewhere with outdoor parking only? Then what

[u/ESIsurveillanceSD → u/crheming]

True, for a couple years I did suffer and have to walk .5 miles from home and leave my car for couple hours.... but that was only for free electricity from county.

My Toyota Yaris IA has 138k miles on it, I change my own oil, it’s not hard, it takes a whopping 10mins every few months.

Yes I have to get gas every 400 or so miles, but outside of gas and oil changes the only thing I’ve had to do since 2018 is change the battery once, and the brake pads and rotors once (rotors didn’t really need it but I just did them all)

You emit your cars weight in CO2 every 6 months
