Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


YUP! still happens,these buggers should download Tesla app and maybe check themselves(I dont remember what number it requires for access),but I am waiting for my cyber trucks.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


I will agree with you there as the big gas companies are still signing ground leases or with private gas station owners for 30 to 50 years,so they I am sure know better about the future.Also I see ship loads of cars being imported,and most cars have life span of over 20 years now.I drive by Newark port sometimes and see the car parks with thousands of newly imported cars in the lots.


Maybe or maybe not but Tesla certainly is leading in that technology now.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


Not really,if the roads are all well marked then not at all.Have you driven a tesla with Summon feature that also finds a parking and comes to you with your cell fone commands(within limited distance)?Yes now Tesla made it mandatory to have your hand on the steering handel(for legal reasons I guess) to drive under full self driving mode(lol and you can snore while its on).If the roads are paved and signs posted Tesla did a good job already.They upgrade almost every month sometimes couple of times.


That is more then an average driver does.almost 25k miles a year is a lot,hope you dont lease a car with mileage,I dont know how leasing a car works in Poland as most business people do that usually I think.I do around 12k average a year after staying almost 6 months out of the country & in Poland not even 2000KM a year. but we use my car for long trips to kids.My wife just puts 6k miles and kids put under 10k a year.


I dont understand that myself.The batteries will outlast the car and the census say most batteries have problems if changed.Guess it needs more research in that area.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


lol thats why we always buy AWD cars,my first priority.They good for NJ weather and no screeching of wheels.I guess you like those spinning wheels for front/rear drive cars showing muscle.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


I did too until I bought tesla,it takes around a month to get use to the no dash board with meters and lights etc and just a big screen.But when you come back to gas cars it feels like you have come back to stone age.Matter of getting use to,I cant wait for cyber truck to come out.I booked 2 for us.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


Hybrids yet are not fully electric.The electric motor kicks in when you are cruising.We never paid attention about the consumption but was very quiet car.One has to get use to it when you start it,always had problems with valet parking as those guys would keep on turning the ignition.We had Toyota Highlander 2006 AWD and changed it in 2011.Never had problem drove around 80k miles.And there was no subsidy from the govt for hybrids.I think they were on all full LPG/Propane and electric vehicles,depending on the State.I did get around 7k tax rebate when I bought tesla though but that was for a first number of cars and is also gone now.

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


We have owned a hybrid,not much of a difference economically and only after driving over 75k miles in the city(If you still own it).It only helps if driving on cruise in new cars.


Me too,heard Musk is going to do something big that day.

Will you help getting a Green Card?

Life / How are electric cars doing in Poland? [413]


Not that early JR.They are still selling gas cars which last over 20 years and will be selling them for another 10 years at least.The big gas stations like Exxon,Shell,Sheetz and WAWA etc around me are still signing 50 year leases and yes they do want to have electric stations built also.But total eradication of gas cars is no where in sight.

Honestly NOPE,You are allowed to travel with 10K euros undeclared and you can buy for that around 4/5 ounce biscuits with current price and bring them back to Poland legally without declaring for personal use.I have never been to Dubai but if I get a chance I will,but too scared to go to that part of the world.LOL and they will fit in your wallet.

They are not cheap any more,Once I was looking for one and they were really expensive so I fulfilled my classic car desire by bringing Maluch 126P,which I havent driven for over 8 years.But was fun driving that with Polish plates in the USA for 5/6 months.

Lil bit late to add,I heard Dubai is the place to buy gold where the premium is only 5$ and there are vending machines all over the place including the airport.Also I heard in London the Indian place in South Hall also they sell for 25 Pounds an ounce premium.

Off-Topic / Stock Market and Trading Talk [1011]

I think he meant physical gold.
@Dolno:Yes in Poland they charge 7% more then the spot price,I buy in NY where they charge 45$ per ounce to buy or sell.Price differs around 5$ between the brands like Canadian Maple leaf,Credit swisse and American eagle gold biscuits & Bricks.

In Poland the cheapest I could find for 5% surcharge from a Polish mint in Warsaw.I forgot to ask them if they would add VAT on top of it.I would never buy it in Poland.

Life / Owning a house in true countryside of Poland - stories [597]

NAH!I love my lawyers and courts in USA and in Poland as well.They make me more money legally.I can understand some people dont have patience and cant deal with courts and paying lawyers hurts them,but not for me.They have a legal system in place for disagreements so why not use it.I only use them when I feel I have 75% or more chance of winning and usually its a success.

I rather go to gym or long walks by the beach for fresh air and think of a new strategy:),rest about kids first they live far away and also I like them to be good in there fields then using some tools when they can afford to pay the professionals to do the job.


Yeah reminds me of 2 HELOC credit lines with interest only I have from a bank who by mistake gave me life long line of credit for 400k ,lol cpl years back they offered me 4k each to close it,but I refused except that I cant sell those properties now or I will loose the credit line.

Thx to Nj law,if a branch falls off in neighbors yard he is responsible,lol cpl weeks back it did in my case but he is out and bank owns it,so I was lucky with no argument and no damage to my fence so I just threw it back in that yard over the fence.Last week just found an attorney on contingency to sue the bank for the trees branches on my side to be trimmed that I would not do when my neighbor was there as courtesy for freaking 20 years.

lol these so called PF intellects have lots of advice for every one here as they know it all but still working in there life to make ends meet teaching English coming from UK to Poland for cheap high life.They have no clue whatsoever about the reality of life and boasting about crap things like living in a 5 star hotel etc.There use to be a time here when mentioning English teachers or even cheap high life would get you suspended.Made me laugh when they would talk about stocks living on a teachers salary in Poland with family to feed and boasting about living in a expensive neighborhood in Warsaw lol.

Brits now in Poland have a bad reputation among Poles,who are more qualified and better of these economic migrants who cant make it in Uk and are trying to hustle in Poland.
