Just wear leopard pants and a white belt and you'll fit right in. At least in Vineland!

This comment should be reported as abuse! NJ Pride!

Great to see someone taking acknowledgement!

yes

I saw that n was about to throw hands. I’m glad it ended they way it did loo

maybe they found only one guy with common sense the whole day

Make him your president! He is certainly already more qualified than your other options.

Don’t be confuse buying the dip in a bear market, with guaranteed future returns. Just because that company is down 60%+ from ATH does NOT make it a sound long-term investment. Make sure you’re investing in great companies. kudos to Jennifer Lea Jenson

Is this a reference to New Jersey laws that prevent you from pumping your own gas? I remember hearing something about that, but maybe I'm misremembering.

Yep! In New Jersey, you're not allowed to pump your gas an attendant has to do it for you. They will actually yell at you otherwise@@regolith1350

It was barely journalism and had like zero information, maybe it’s you who is the problem

agree

Most reporting on EV’s is shady. It is not you, most publications get their funding from OEM’s.

​@Aiuto-vk5tq 'Like zero information'? It was good for WSJ, who are generally apalling. Perhaps it's you who is the problem?

The miss information is that she purchased a Ford EV and not a Tesla...

💀💀

The best WSJ journalist, there would seem to be no competition on integrity there.

I must say, it's quite rare for a mainstream journalist to report on EVs and not either screw it up somehow or do a full on hit piece. This report is not above critique, but overall pretty well done.

@@davidmenasco5743 She is paid to promote other EV’s over tesla.

A front right port also works (Audi/Porsche). But front left and rear right don't work.

There's already over million non-Tesla EVs on the road that will be able to use the NACS adapter. You can't change the port location on those, so it will still be a big issue for Tesla. It's better for Tesla to add longer cables to it's now-public chargers, just like every other public charging company.

Or just make the cables longer 🤷

​@@geomaestri Which they are doing.

Ford has a fake charging port on the front right of the Lightning. It seems like they'll put a NACS port front right and keep the CCS port front left.

I love all her videos

Is there anyway to find a playlist with her videos?

Good idea to get the adaptor anyway so you have more options if you want to go further. What do you do for long journeys? Have you got an ICE car for that?

I'm always impressed by how much Mach-e owners love their cars. When it first came out, the Mach-e got some grief from EV nerds for being a bit lackluster in certain litmus tests. But it seems to have stood the test of time. The Mach-e and Lightning both get only rave reviews from owners as far as I've seen. So for all the criticisms we could level at Ford, they seem to have done a good job with these two models.

This is one of the most common sense descriptive comments I've seen on youtube in months.

For real! An incentive would fix this so quickly.

europe and china have already solved this issue by installing low power chargers at sidewalks, parking areas, etc. it is really cheap to install because it does not require heavy grid.

Yes. EVs make zero sense for anyone who rents. Charging at commercial chargers is 5 times as expensive as at home.

@@kellymoses8566Depends. My apt complex installed 6 chargers recently. A lot of other complexes are following the trend to attract tenants. This is obviously more common on luxury apartments and higher priced places.

Need destination chargers everywhere. Even if you can't charge at home you're still going to drive and park somewhere else at some point.

He should run for president

If only it were that easy

I know at least one company (A2Z) that is working on a NACS DC extension cable.

You can't extend the liquid cooling part of the cable. That means that the charger would need to detect the extension and lower the charging rate accordingly.

wouldn’t work. the cables are water cooled

V3's use high AMPs to facilitate the high charging speeds with causes a tremendous amount of heat. These thin cables cannot be any longer without suffering damage very quickly. And keep in mind they are already fluid cooled as it is. The V4's use longer, but also thicker, cables. As well as being 800v. If you double the voltage it means you half the amperage, meaning you effectively only cause a quarter of the heat. Tesla is basically only installing V4's from here on out.

That's good info. I hate it when they dramatize things.

Yes, the video was remarkably good for a mainstream report. But that part was a bit misleading.

She said it wasn’t apples to apples

@@Bmr4life but then implied it cost more for non-teslas? I'm just pointing out that it cost more and took longer proportional to the difference in battery pack sizes --not because they were charging more money for the same amount of electricity or that the supercharger wasn't capable of charging the ford at a similar rate.

​​@@mrdylansays If we assume that her Mach-e extended range has 91kWh usable capacity and the long range Model Y has 81kWh usable, we can calculate a rough estimate. Multiply the total battery capacity by 0.6 to get the 20% to 80% amount, then divide the total cost by that amount. 0.6*91=56.4. $25.2/56.4kWh = ~0.4615$/kWh for Ford. For Tesla, 0.6*81 = 48.6kWh. $19.2/48.6kWh = ~$0.3950/kWh. In this case, Ford owners without the monthly subscription pay about 6.5 cents more per kWh, an increase of ~16.82%. The percentages and absolute amount differencea may be very different depending on wholesale electricity rates in different areas.

Hear hear! You can say that again.

Others have done that test of non-Ford CCS EVs on Supechargers... doesn't work (eg Rivian, GM.) It needs software updates on both sides, charger and car, so they can talk to & recognize each other (certificates, etc.) as well as testing things. This is why Tesla has a schedule for rolling out the access to other makes, they are coming soon... months? Ford was just first to jump on the standard, and got access first.

Yes, it's been tested and doesn't work. But Rivian did just get access. And they're getting the same adapter as Ford. 3rd party adapters are also coming out, and some have been tested and work. But the car and charger manufacturers don't approve, of course.

Tesla made a superior product which is why NA EV manufacturers have joined their standard. It seems like following them with the port placement is the next logical step

No problem in europe.

The cheapest solution is to extend the cables. It’s literally the easiest thing to do. Or just place the charger at the side of the cars like a petrol pump station

@@theachilles96Cheapest to whom? That's tens of thousands of charge plugs for Tesla to retrofit. The best solution is for OEM's, when they go NACS native, is to put the charge port in a more compatible location. They're already putting a port in, they just need to move it. Older cars will always unfortunately have this issue, but they are so few in number it's a whatever. Tesla's V4 chargers have longer cables (3' longer), but those are new locations only and they are not retrofitting them to old stations.

​@@user-to2rf1rj5vTesla will have to replace charger hardware down the line regardless.

I can't wait to watch the show when 3 or 4 Chev Bolts are sitting for well over an hour each to charge. Stocking up on popcorn for road trips.

GM will be doing the same thing soon. They should send you a free adapter. You might check with a dealer and see if they know about it. On the other hand, it wouldn't be surprising if the dealer gave incorrect info.

So that is for the EVGO charger. EVGO is known to be expensive.

What Tesla model do you own?

He's not a CEO, he's a Democrat party politician

Seems like everyone is. Do people really not interact in real life with other people? This is what most people are like, regardless of what the fear mongering media will tell you.

You can only get 350 kW charging with CCS if you have an 800V car, which very few people have. It is also hard to find 350 kW CCS stations in the US, and I doubt new ones will be built, now that nearly every automaker in N. America has committed to changing to NACS. If you have a 800V CCS car, you are probably going to be stuck with 150 kW max charging most of the time. In contrast, it is easy to find Supercharger V3 stations with 250 kW max charging today. In addition, Tesla will built thousands of 350 kW Supercharger V4 stations in the coming years, and the other charge networks will also build NACS chargers.

I don't own an EV and had no concept of how much it costs to charge at one of these stations. It's a lot more expensive than I'd have thought - much more than a tank of gas.

​@@Nainara32 Not my tank

@@GamerbyDesignwhat Tesla model do you ownV

@@Nainara32right, rates are higher at these superchargers than at home

@@_nosikeuzoma1456 None was saying my tank does not get full with $25 or $40.

No, but the issue is landlords which only allow a tiny section of their lots to be used, so Tesla has no choice but to install them like that on most sites. And the port on ICE are also standard - - either left or right rear. It's not the wild west of non-Tesla EV manufacturers. Thats the real issue.

I don't wait. I charge my car overnight when I'm sleeping and wake up to a full charge every morning. The real time waster is having to go to the gas station to fill up a gas car every time.

In the US*

the solution is to update the stations to longer cables like other chargers adding NACS, which they are apparently doing

@@superzario1000 Or put the charging port centrally placed like in the front like Nissan did.

😡STOP THE SCAM 😡 Governments MUST give similar EV incentives to hydrogen cars & stations or eliminate all incentives 😡

In Norway, I've seen nothing like that at Tesla charger stations. They've been open for all EVs for about 2 years here.

Crazy it's still 36% cheaper than at the EVgo even with the Tesla markup...

Small price to pay for the convenience.

Sometimes you just need a little juice to get home. Better for everyone as Tesla will put more chargers in if they are getting used and other EV charging companies will get more business because more people will consider EVs since charging is easier

@@bbgator1 I agree, but it could be painful for some at first. I would have liked to see them put in the chargers and the modification before opening them up to other EVs.

Not quite - assuming that her Mach-e extended range has 91kWh usable capacity and the long range Model Y has 81kWh usable, we can calculate a rough estimate. Multiply the total battery capacity by 0.6 to get the 20% to 80% amount, then divide the total cost by that amount. 0.6*91=56.4. $25.2/56.4kWh = ~0.4615$/kWh for Ford.

The percentages and absolute amount differences may be very different depending on wholesale electricity rates in different areas.

Not that easy. Those charger cables are liquid cooled for a reason, you can't just pop in a small piece of wire. The diameter of the cable would be huge, that's why the adapter weighs so much.

@@mikemazzantini6397 you are correct. That's why CCS cables are so massive.

You draw a lot of current through these charging cables. Totally different ballgame from your 120 V/12 A Class II household extension cord.

That’s what the V4 supercharger does. Problem is almost all existing chargers are V3 or V2

You dont need a subscribtion to use the tesla network. Only if you want a slightly lower price/kwh

Tesla is rolling out "pull thru" Superchargers, which are setup more like pavilions at a gas station. This will also eliminate the problem of charge port placement on vehicles.

It's not a big problem. if all non-Teslas park next to each other and take the stall to their left; while Teslas do the opposite on the other side of the site, only 1, or at worst 2, stalls will be lost in all.

On a road trip I find that I only need to charge to 60% to get to the next charging station, which is more like 15-20 minutes.

800v EVs take half that long. In fact, the new 2025 Taycan gets to over 300 miles in 15 minutes, 250 miles in 12 minutes, and 200 in 10. And you don't have to take out you card and risk it being skimmed (look it up) at the pump, or go inside and wait in line to pay, then pumping in the gas, then drive around for a parking spot, before going into the rest stop. You plug it in, and head to the rest room. You don't even have time to get a cup of coffee before it's finished charging. And of course, ZERO wait time if you charge at home. Which is the case 98% of the time.

A small price to pay to not have to dump all that carbon in the atmosphere.

Think of the other side though - how often do you road trip vs. just driving around your town? With a EV you never need to visit a public charger during normal use - just charge it at home. With an ICE you've got to go out of your way to get fuel.

The diameter of the cable would be huge and expensive. The Tesla charge cables are liquid cooled to avoid this. Also, I like the port in the rear when it's raining because you don't have to walk around the door. It's a small thing, but I like it.

The supercharger cable is as thin as it is because it has cooling built in. An extension cable wouldn't be practical as it'd have to be a very large and bulky cable to overcome the lack of cooling.

@@mrdylansays if cooling . maybe change material . or adding heat exchanger in extender cable

@@Juminten-bv1xw and how expensive would that cable be? It certainly wouldn't make sense as a consumer item for folks to have one in each car. And where is the cooling extension coming from (the current Tesla design is a loop at the end and you certainly can't connect additional cooling externally). It might make more sense as a retrofit for charging cabinets (i.e. replace the cable entirely with a new longer one with additional cooling capability) but that's essentially already what's happening with v4 superchargers. Retrofitting v3 is more difficult due to cabinet positioning and cooling capacity per cable length. Also some non-tesla charging stations have newer cabinets that will be able to do a similar retrofit for nacs as well. In short, there's a lot of technical limitations that make an extension cable non-trivial (lots of info on KZfaq if you are interested in learning more). Anyway, the adapter is only a short term stop-gap measure as virtually all ev manufactured are committing to switching over to nacs, and we should start seeing non-tesla evs be nacs-native along with non-tesla level 3 charging moving to nacs as early as 2025.
