I still remember Joe arguing about teslas not having transmissions.
What a maroon.
All those boosters are having an effect on Joe, although there wasn’t that much to work with from the start.

2: the mechanism by which power is transmitted from an engine to the wheels of a motor vehicle.

All electric cars have some form of transmission, but manufacturers use different terms.

It's called a gearbox. Single gear ratio.

It is not a transmission with different gear ratios, which is what the original convo was about.
Not even a "reverse gear", because that's all done by just reversing current polarity.

The convo was about your ICE transmission needing replacement every 100k or so miles.
You never have to replace a transmission in a single-geared vehicle. If they are properly maintained, they will pretty much last as long as the car will.

Tesla manuals specifically mention transmission and fluid ( do not change unless transmission is worn) .
It’s a single gear transmission.
Keep digging that hole maroon.

It is a single gear gearbox, which will never require the maintenance/replacement like an ICE transmission does.
That was the context, in case you forgot (again)

I remember.
You said it didn’t have a transmission.
Wrong then and still wrong.

I stated that EVs had many advantages over ICE vehicles, particularly on maintenance, because they did not have a transmission.

You do not "replace" an EV transmission or need to add fluid every 30k miles. It is a permanently sealed single-speed gearbox. It bears little resemblance to the multi-speed transmissions or CVTs in gas/diesel vehicles.

One of many advantages I had pointed out.
You also never change spark plugs
You never need any timing belt adjustment
You will never have pistons wear out or "throw a rod".
You have no oil changes.

Yep.
Thanks for finally admitting you were wrong.

Kamala’s campaign bill is peanuts. She left the United States with an $88 billion dollar bill to clean up her border mess. It’s gotta be true - it was on 60 minutes…
 
Farmers were betrayed by Biden?
The years 2021, 2022, 2023 were the 3 highest net income for farmers in US history.

Trump's trade war with China cost US farmers tens of billions in trade and that market is now permanently severely damaged.

Farmers evidently don't like money so they voted for Trump.
Surprising. Look for another trade war soon as Trump has seen he can destroy farmers and they will continue to support him.
By the red all over the electoral maps in rural areas, I'd say yeah he did.
 
Yep. Every site you've linked states they are not "a transmission in the conventional sense".
Because they are single gear.

Like my electric leaf blower or electric weed trimmer. No one refers to the single-speed gearing as "a transmission" in those, either.
