ICE or EV?

LL might be suffering from delusional disorder like morekaos. I didn't have to even ask AI because I've actually been to DFW a few times in the last 2 or 3 years but it's so fun when AI does the work for me:

My friend said Tesla Superchargers are practically non-existent in DFW

Your friend is actually working off some pretty outdated info, or they just aren't looking at the right map! A few years ago, the urban core of Dallas-Fort Worth was admittedly a bit of a dead zone for Superchargers because Tesla primarily built them along major highway corridors for road-trippers.

Today, the metroplex is absolutely packed with them. Whether you are in downtown Dallas, Fort Worth, or the sprawling suburbs, you are rarely more than a 10-minute drive from a station.

DFW Supercharger Hotspots​

Tesla has built massive coverage across the metroplex, mixing high-speed highway stops with urban "convenience" chargers. Here is where they are heavily concentrated:

• The Suburban Hubs: Plano, Frisco, and Arlington have massive installations. Plano alone has multiple high-speed V3 (250 kW) locations near major shopping centers like Legacy West.
• The Transit Corridors: Major highways like I-35E, I-35W, I-75, and I-20 are densely lined with stations. If you’re driving between Fort Worth and Dallas on I-30, there are several easy spots to pull off.
• The Texas Icons: You can't talk about charging in Texas without mentioning Buc-ee's. The massive Buc-ee's locations in Fort Worth (near the Texas Motor Speedway) and Melissa feature huge banks of V3 Superchargers.
• Urban Dallas & Fort Worth: Downtown cores and dense residential areas (like Uptown or the Fort Worth Cultural District) have seen a wave of additions, including "Urban" Superchargers capped at 75 kW to 150 kW, designed for people who live in apartments and can't charge at home.

And another LL-ism in the books.

They’ll figure it out…

After Ferrari Luce backlash, Lamborghini CEO says canceling its own EV was the right choice​

• Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann told CNBC the automaker’s decision to kill its all-electric vehicle plans to focus on plug-in hybrid electric vehicles was “the right way to go” for his company.
• His comments come after Ferrari this week faced harsh criticism and investor backlash against its first all-electric vehicle, the Luce.
• Winkelmann said “every brand, every company has to decide for themselves.”

In a sign of the criticism the EV was receiving, former Ferrari chairman Luca di Montezemolo, who held various leadership positions in the automaker for decades until 2014, described the vehicle to Italian media as a disgrace to the company’s storied history.

“I hope that they take off the prancing horse [logo] from that car,” he said

Italian Deputy Prime Minister and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini also criticized the Luce.

“Electric, outrageously expensive (550 thousand euros!) and, from an aesthetic point of view, it speaks for itself... It looks like anything but a car from the Prancing Horse. And this is supposed to be ‘innovation’? Who knows what [Ferrari founder] Enzo Ferrari would say... ,”

EV tech is awesome... EV supercars are breaking the boundaries of ICE. Lambo will jump back in eventually.

Did you look?

That map is covering an absolutely massive area. It's not very many chargers for an area that large... Hence, they are practically non-existent. (Do you understand what that expression means?)

For instance, I was in the Frisco area getting dinner between games. This map shows four charging stations, so one of those has to be where I was at. For a giant parking lot with anchor stores, multiple chain restaurants, and many smaller shops there were only two chargers all by their lonesome, neither of which were being used.

I knew you would argue semantics. Read the AI response.

Because you know little about EVs, you may not know what to look for. There are Tesla SCs all over the place, some in big lots, others are pairs or 4 packs. So they are "everywhere" which is what I said. Whether they are being used or not is beside the point.

Keep making your invalid comments... it's hilarious.

Again, you continually miss my point…weather the market eventually picks up EV’s or not…I have always argued that the adoption need not be pushed and funded by my tax dollars…face it, the rapid adoption of EV’s in this country never took root like you thought it would…I always said, let the markets dictate pace not stupid government intervention and largesse at taxpayer expense…Ferrari and Toyota missed the initial land mines and let others fail…Toyota has learned the lessons at minimal loss Lamborghini and now Ferrari will..but they can correct.
