Anything concerning electric cars can be shocking.
Watt?
Could I have the summary, rather than being forced to watch a Youtube video?
I watch Scotty’s videos a lot. I just read his net worth is about $11M.
Not bad for a grease monkey.
“This could turn out to be a bigger fiasco than the exploding Ford Pintos. “
What fiasco are you referring to?
What study is the headline referring to?
Real green, real green. We’ve been conned, green energy is for the conmen and the rich.

CoupFlu deaths from lack of care, the wrong care, the vaxxes, were a preview of coming attractions.
And I’ll bet NONE of this shocks insiders.
They likely knew and/or suspected.
And didn’t give a damn.
This situation is called listening to a bunch of moron greenies and not considering the next level of detail.
Ford Pintos were not that dangerous. Two young women, girls really, were in a Pinto entering the Pennsylvania Turnpike in front of a cement truck. The inexperienced driver pulled in front of the truck and was rear-ended. The Pinto caught fire, unsurprisingly and both women were killed.
In the resulting lawsuit, during discovery, the plaintiffs’ lawyers found an internal Ford Motor Company memo that stated that a flexible filler tube for Pinto gas tank would add $10 to the production cost, but that the additional liability associated with lawsuits would cost less if a rigid filler were used. This was when $10 was worth something, and the Japanese were handing Detroit their lunch on price.
It is unlikely these individuals would have survived regardless of the filler tube used, but the apparent callousness, and sympathetic victims, young white women, so enraged (or should I say inflamed?) the jury that Ford was hors d’oeuvres in any lawsuit wherein a Pinto had caught fire, and the passengers were injured.
In fact, the Pinto did not have a particularly poor safety record for a subcompact car, but its reputation never recovered from that publicity.
Fortunately, there’s not enough lithium on the planet to convert to EVs. Boondoggle.
Gonna always like Scotty Kilmer and what he has too say
Where is dumbass Tesla/Gator on this?
