    Electrifying transportation reduces emissions AND saves massive amounts of energy
    Electric vehicles are far more energy-efficient than traditional internal combustion vehicles.

      Chuck2 an equivalent EV model of an ICE model costs more initially. The equivalent 2024 Chev Blazer EV to the 2023 ICE Blazer I bought is $10000 more. Insurance is higher. Plus the EV is projected to depreciate faster. So not cheaper to run.

      The University Profs doing all the computer models are cut from the same cloth that tell me I should be on Covid shot #5 by now. Also the same people telling me that intermittent power sources like wind and solar are a technological advancement even though they require a third generation source for dependable output.

          Cause the price will never be cheaper, as the scarce minerals skyrocket due to demand.

          EU passed a law to cancel ICE vehicles by 2035, plan ahead boys.

            Electric Vehicles Are Way, Way More Energy-Efficient Than Internal Combustion Vehicles
            Say you drop $5 on a gallon of gas—only about $1 dollar's worth actually gets you moving in a traditional ICE vehicle.

            So, who gives a flying fu(k? We could also all drive some shit can like a smart car, and some people do, but most people want a decent comfortable car that is going to protect them or get them out of trouble if they are on an icy road or something like that.
            In New Zealand where gas is $4.00/liter people still want to drive powerful cars or inefficient pickup trucks. So let people drive what they want to, if they think they can afford to, or need it to do a particular task.
