Oh hell yahhh!!!!
Frank Eaton was a cool dude. Sounds as if he was full of shit, but fun to listen to none the less. They should make a movie about his story of avenging his dad's killers.

Perhaps, but Mods will error on the safe side and remove content that appears it might be underage.
Someone has to report it though, since none of us Mods peruse this thread regularly. Too much other stuff going on...

This is a Tesla model Y battery. It takes up all of the space under the passenger compartment of the car.
To manufacture it you need:
--12 tons of rock for Lithium (can also be
extracted from sea water)
-- 5 tons of cobalt minerals (Most cobalt is made
as a byproduct of the processing of copper
and nickel ores. It is the most difficult material
to obtain for a battery and the most
expensive.)
-- 3 tons nickel ore
-- 12 tons of copper ore
You must move 250 tons of soil to obtain:
-- 26.5 pounds of Lithium
-- 30 pounds of nickel
-- 48.5 pounds of manganese
-- 15 pounds of cobalt
To manufacture the battery also requires:
-- 441 pounds of aluminum, steel and/or plastic
-- 112 pounds of graphite
The Caterpillar 994A is used for the earthmoving to obtain the essential minerals. It consumes 264 gallons of diesel in 12 hours.
Finally you get a “zero emissions” car.
Presently, the bulk of the necessary minerals for manufacturing the batteries come from China or Africa. Much of the labor for getting the minerals in Africa is done by children! If we buy electric cars, it's China who profits most!
BTW, this 2021 Tesla Model Y OEM battery (the cheapest Tesla battery) is currently for sale on the Internet for $4,999 not including shipping or installation. The battery weighs 1,000 pounds (you can imagine the shipping cost). The cost of Tesla batteries is:
Model 3 -- $14,000+ (Car MSRP $38,990)
Model Y -- $5,000–$5,500 (Car MSRP $47,740)
Model S -- $13,000–$20,000 (Car MSRP $74,990)
Model X -- $13,000+ (Car MSRP $79,990)
It takes SEVEN years for an electric car to reach net-zero CO2. The life expectancy of the batteries is 10 years (average). Only in the last three years do you begin to reduce your carbon footprint. Then the batteries have to be replaced and you lose all the gains you made in those three years.
The truth is far better than the fiction we are all being told !

I get y'all removing suspicious stuff that's not the issue. Some of these guys must be 132yo because they have said obviously 30yo women look under age.
At a certain point when someone looks around and suspects every other post of being something nefarious they are the problem.
List did a replacement battery pack under warranty on a Benz EQS few weeks ago….. please return your seats to their upright position and tighten all safety belts…..
That’s just the retail cost only, can’t show the dealer internal stuff.

Tesla batteries about 20 grand…. And significantly larger, in general.
Yes I bet we would be horrified to see what's on thier hard drive
Shut up and move on.
Whining like a schoolboy after those pics aint gonna win you friends here.
likely a fed boi trying to see who likes the poorly executed AI kiddie porn.
I would have called her The Naggler, or something close to that
You are reading that correctly, Tesla and Mercedes on the same pack.
That’s what’s so laughable about people who argue my Chevy, Ford, Dodge, BWM is better. Got no idea how much these manufactures are in cohorts together behind the scenes.
That particular gem in the crate is for an older B class Mercedes that a was about $11k. Don’t remember all the particulars on capacity as I wasn’t the one working on it, but it’s a lunch box of a car with city driving range.

No, it’s just that up until probably fairly recently… everybody else’s battery packs were very very small by comparison.
Let's just say the vast majority of those who stayed home during the scamdemic were not up to Newton level intelligence.
Let me be perfectly fucking clear on this.
If you post something that even appears underage, real or AI generated, that content will be deleted, and you will be banned. Permanently.
This is the Hide, not PornHub. If you want to go look at that crap, go somewhere else. We don't need that kind of attention or reputation. There's already enough eyes on this site.
There will be no more warnings.
I'm surprised I even have to make this post. Smdh...
Can’t speak much about other manufactures, but Benz is who sold all their old tech and copartner the startup of Tesla. Kinda foolish of them in hind sight seeings the competition they helped create.
Tesla is just the first to turn it loose on the public. There’s a ton of cool tech that for whatever reason barely sees the light of day.

Here’s a fairly comprehensive report on why a lot of this is inaccurate…. When I say inaccurate, it’s an accurate in that it doesn’t compare apples to apples: Primarily the resources that are required to go into production of any internal combustion engine based vehicle. The primary difference being those minerals required for the battery pack, versus the materials present in a combustion engine.

www.iea.org Now, I’m not seeing EV’s are God’s gift to the world… the truth is that internal combustion engines are not gonna be replaced in extremely remote locations… unless somehow those remote locations have massive energy generation capability.
However, I find it really ridiculous that people run around trying to say how awful EVs are when the truth of the matter is they do fulfill a slot when it comes to metropolitan area transportation.
Not to mention, they’re insanely fast and very few ICE vehicles can touch them from a performance standpoint.

100 percent!! In certain circumstances EV’s are great, but this mandate crap is horse shit!!! They are not even remotely close to prime time replacement.Here’s a fairly comprehensive report on why a lot of this is inaccurate….

Now for the kicker, EV’s have zero, zero restrictions or performance requirements and are given price breaks and credits left and right. If they are as good as the gubmint and manufactures are pushing, how about they stand on their own merits and a level playing field. Then let’s see where the chips fall.
Did not believe it. Looked up the part number. It’s 40,558.80 for the battery and 6652 for the core charge at Mercedespartscenter.
So, in reality: only $34474.98
My local MB dealer sells all parts AT 10% OVER LIST, My source in TX is 15% off list
AI is the father
Mandates are always problematic…
You should’ve seen me given people at work crap about the fact that some of them actually thought forcing people to get vaccinated was totally fine… whereas, I said to them: “ it’s all nice and fine when it’s not something inside someone’s body but if you’re gonna start screwing around by telling someone they have to inject something into their body… Your violating their rights as an American.”
It’s a little different when it comes to the EV. Truthfully, I think a lot of the conversation related EVs will change when it comes to solid state batteries. If what Toyota is saying is true, we’ll see cars that are twice the capacity of what we have now… making them far more cost effective than ICE vehicles. Literally, if a battery tack suddenly allows for 700 miles range and charges in less than half the time (Toyota)… that will blow the crap out of almost any car with the gas tank… and it will blow away gasoline, powered vehicles, and their cost effectiveness.
if I remember correctly the Tesla model Y batteries around $25,000… I’d have to assume that a Mercedes was probably getting a different battery pack, where the battery packed out of a model S or model X vehicle, which is substantially larger Than the one from the model three or model Y.

Can’t speak for Mercedes Parts Center, but good luck getting that battery at that price from a third party vendor. It’s also hazmat truck freight shipping only.
Maybe they got some secret squirrel connections, but it was special procurement by VIN only to our dealership. I am a MB tec and that is straight out of Benz official system. You can call the half dozen other dealers in the Tampa, Orlando area to try your luck at if you like.
Yes, an entire class of racing is made up lol
its all fake, a conspiracy if you will!
it’s all fake…
let’s also forget the fact prop pitch can change the RPM.

I know you are busy doing your evil genius shit but the other mods not so much.
BTW: When will the plasma rifle in the 40W range be done?
Here’s some “1000hp” boats for y’all to enjoy.
2 props? Maybe it’s a w-drive….but those aren’t real.
<-W-drive
here’s a nonexistent W-drive.
hey, is that a w-drive?
probably not…

Just because it has a shipping label going to a Mercedes location doesn't mean it fits a Mercedes vehicle. The Mercedes dealership might have a body shop that is Tesla certified to install the battery, or the Mercedes service department might be Tesla certified. My son works for Tesla where they build the batteries and has never said anything about them making a Mercedes spec battery. They are so busy building batteries for their own production they don't have time to build them for anyone else.
