How much does it cost to change a battery out on these baybees?

Fake solution to a fake problem by a politician who came to power by a fake election.

The activists and bureaucrats pushing this nonsense have zero grounding in reality. They will likely get promoted for their Green “achievements” and will have long-ago moved on when the consequences kick in.

I suspect that the inevitable shortages, including food, will lead to increased prices, severe shortages, and finally riots. When the riots are unable to be quelled (because people need to eat), you will see some backtracking. But probably that is what it will take.

Truckers and Farmers are the lifeblood of this country, and the Democrats are attacking both.

I’m hoping Trump wins, Biden dies, the EPA is put out to pasture with about every other 3 letter government shxthole,
the border is closed, illegals deported or better yet shot on sight, the military is rebuilt with DEI and Woke kicked out, fossil fuels start flowing and prices all over will start dropping.

Several electric trucks should pull up to liberal politicians’ homes and run long extension cords to their electric outlets.

This is the beginning of the American Holodomor.

The charging time is an issue. Where I work, the trucks run almost 24/7. The day driver gets out and within an hour or two, the night driver gets in. The electric trucks need 8-10 hours to charge. When they cost $150,000 new they need to work. Now at 400 plus, they are supposed to sit?

EPA Chief Michael Reagan:

Michael S. Regan was sworn in as the 16th Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency on March 11, 2021, becoming the first Black man and second person of color to lead the U.S. EPA.

Prior to his nomination as EPA Administrator, Michael Regan served as the Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). As Secretary, he spearheaded the development and implementation of North Carolina's seminal plan to address climate change and transition the state to a clean energy economy. Under his leadership, he secured the largest coal ash clean-up in United States history.

He led complex negotiations regarding the clean-up of the Cape Fear River, which had been contaminated for years by the toxic chemicals per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS). In addition, he established North Carolina's first-of-its-kind Environmental Justice and Equity Advisory board to better align social inequities, environmental protection, and community empowerment.

Throughout his career, he has been guided by a belief in forming consensus, fostering an open dialogue rooted in respect for science and the law, and an understanding that environmental protection and economic prosperity go hand in hand.

the Biden Admin could care less.. For them its all about a bunch of DEI idiots reveling in bending an entire industry to their insane egos an will. Better all for it if its a “Trump Industry”

[Red6]

I’m sure that’s >100k.

And a lot of children digging for the materials used in those batteries. LOL

“So, you’re going to need more trucks on the road, which is completely the opposite of what we would want if we were actually concerned about bettering our society.”

People still don’t get that these issues have NOTHING to do with reality.

Post ~1970 and with Silent Spring, environmentalism has become all about political grand standing and making money. What ever happened to the ozone hole? Spotted owl? Baby seals? Saving the whales? DDT... It’s mostly junk today which is used in political theater and makes someone rich.

Will the EV trucks come with fake diesel smoke and fake diesel engine rattling sound like some EV cars come with a recording of an internal combustion engine exhaust? Boogity Boogity Vroom Vroom.

Pepsico explains how it uses Tesla Semi electric trucks in glimpse of the future of trucking

Pepsico explained that it uses most of its 21 Tesla Semi electric trucks for deliveries within 100 miles with several stops. They operate for up to 12 hours a day.

Dejan Antunovic, electrification program manager at Pepsico, explained that three of the Tesla Semi trucks are dedicated to long-haul trucking, with routes that vary between 250 to 450 miles.

To support that, Tesla has been installing 750 kW Megachargers at Pepsico facilities. They enable charging to 80% capacity in less than 45 minutes.

Pepsico noted the difficulty of installing that much charging power at a facility and said that they will use what they learned from this experience to plan for future depots that will be electrified.

Time to rip out the EPA and all their regulations out by the roots, take the trunk, branches and leaves too.
