An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

    I mean weight is a huge issue too just due to safety. I drove my buddies model Y recently and it felt extremely nimble, probably due to the center of gravity being so good thanks to the batteries

    But you can still feel how heavy the vehicle is and I imagine crashing into one would fucking hurt. I mean my GMC Sierra is lighter, it’s absurd really

      Pros and cons as with everything in this world. Great to hear that you had a good time in the model Y. Thanks for letting me know that I’m not all alone with these not-lemmy-approved comments

        Don’t even pay attention to downvotes, they don’t really do anything unlike reddit
