At least ice car will be able to fuel at all the non electric operated gas stations

I bet millions and millions of Americans can't wait to efficiently do that
Well if an emp or massive solar flare happens they might have to.Teslag said:

They will have bigger problems at hand if an EMP hits with that much force. And even their ice car would be non working.
Hand pump and rubber hose, no 2 liter bottle required.Teslag said:

You do realize they had gas stations prior to electricity, right?
Ya I forgot how many old non electric gas stations were still around to fuel alll the cars that still wont work after an EMP
The tanks underground do not require electricity.Teslag said:

I have plenty of hose, free child labor, couple of bicycle hand pumps and a Ford Edsel. Bring it.
Now how does the gas get into that tank after everyone with a siphon sucks what little gas there is in reserve? Not to mention what vehicles will survive the same kind of EMP that would destroy our electrical grid?
"This cataclysmic event would only negatively impact the electric vehicles, everything else would be immune. Because gas runs on unicorn farts."
Don't be silly.

Older volkswagens, jeeps and ford edsels for starters.hph6203 said:

Cubans would be living large.
Good thing about oil... it existed before electricity and unicorn farts.
I am not the one being silly. Your doomsday prep skills are expectedly lacking.
And how do you pump and refine enough oil so that YOU can get gasoline without electricity? Your doomsday analysis and the impact of the doomsday events are lacking.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Ok. You guys have convinced me. I should buy an EV for the apocalypse.
Good grief the goal tending is phenomenal.

Using the apocalypse as an argument against EV's means you've already lost.
So does using it for EVs.GAC06 said:

Have I missed someone using nuclear apocalypse or EMP attacks as an argument for EV's? I see people arguing against EV's with those ludicrous arguments.

THIS. Techno is projecting an argument nobody is making.
If an emp hits, no car will work. Have you not seen War of the Worlds?!?!Teslag said:

So, new thread title: Earth is Finished

If we can get op to make that declaration, we'll know for sure that Earth is going to kill it!
Post EMP cars will work on a certain island in the Caribbean.
Also, even a minor EMP attack or a bad solar storm that impacts the grid and hits EVs harder will be an end to that industry.

Nuh uh. How are you gonna get gas? May as well buy an EV.fka ftc said:

You can run a car on coal.
Combustion been reliable source of energy since cave man. But we are way beyond that now that the battery was recently invented.

To sum it up: Cybertruck, 4680, FSD, nex Gen Model 2, giga Mexico, charging expansion to all EVs, mega pack production has begun in new factory, Austin is ramping, massive efficiency in scale. #tesla is the most consequential company in the market. $tsla

O noes! They're definitely finished now!
But EMP!
Good thing you know how to fly unautomated airplanes with no electronics. Canvas winged Korea era plane you fly for Ho Chi Minh Airways should survive the EMP.GAC06 said:

Did that make sense to you? I hope you're drunk.

One would hope you are not on duty if you been drinking.
How did you enjoy the article I previously linked? Curious.

My '56 Merc and '61 Beetle say Howdy! They can power through a direct nuclear hit
Not a single airliner in service can be flown by itself. We've covered this and I can't say it more simply for you. No, I probably didn't click your link. I'm busy looking for an Edsel so I can own EV owners when the world ends.
Well, I even excerpted it for you in the post, but I highlighted the wrong text. Here you are.GAC06 said:

Hiding behind "nuh uh, you wrong because the FAA won't certify it" does not make me wrong.Quote:
In both space travel and military aviation, we already see a large number of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) that can fly completely autonomously. From a technical point of view, it is already possible today to build a commercial airliner that can fly without pilots. But there are also differences.
Elon's Dragon capsule can launch into orbit on its own, dock with th space station and return home with no one on board. But that brand new A321 NEO needs you hanging out to fly it?
Nah, not buying that.
Yes the airliner needs pilots. Not a single one in existence doesn't. In the future, just reread this post after you post.
You said airliners can take off fly and land by themselves but pilots sometimes "grab the yoke" because they feel like it. Now you're arguing about what could be theoretically possible.
That doesn't make you wrong, you made you wrong. Your ignorance combined with arrogance made you wrong.
All these strawmen, to make you feel better about being dead ass wrong. And that's weird because you said you like being wrong. You could have just said "thank you" for educating you.

How many airplane fights can you get in in a week?
Roger. Thank you for reminding me that people who may appear to be experts sometimes have limited knowledge in their field of expertise.
Fella, if you think I get my happiness from this message board you are wrong again. But it is a source of profound entertainment at times.
