And no one has discussed the disposal of the batteries.

On radio news this morning, a Tesla was on fire. Took four hours and 32,000 gallons of water to put out the batteries . The two in the car burnt to death. The firefighters called Tesla for help. Tesla didn’t offer a viable solution to extinguish the fire

If you go to Home Depot, Lowes or Best Buy you will see rechargeable battery recycling drop-off boxes.

They can recycle lithium batteries I believe.

Well, car/truck batteries are bigger...Trust your car/truck dealer to add a revenue stream.

What happens when there is a hurricane or other bad weather or emergency and thousands of people are on the road stuck in traffic how are you going to generate those batteries
