I have noticed that the major car blogs (Motor Trend, Car and Driver, etc) all support EVs, even though Ford and others have cut back production and are pushing hybrids. Something smells Democrat-like there.

I see them pop up on Facebook. They make it sound like electric cars are very popular.

The major car blogs are whores. They as well as car and motorcycle magazines. Pretty much always have been.

If there had been an internet (internet forums and youtube) in 1972 I would never have bought a BSA. All we had were car and bike magazines. What a pantload.

I have said in the past that about the time that Cho BiDung was elected and the GND push began in earnest that the FedGov paid a visit to USA car makers and basically strong-armed them into EV development and production. I fully expect that soon after PDJT is re-elected the emphasis on EVs will evaporate. If any of that technology is around in 2-3 years it will be self-contained hybrids that do not need charging stations.

Currently Toyota has the most refined hybrids and the prices are moderating. However they still have those dangerous and expensive batteries. It could be that insurance costs, maintenance costs, low resale values, and decreasing availability will end the hybrid era also.

I’ve always assumed they (car blogs) are being paid by the fedgov to spew EV propaganda. Wouldn’t be the first time.
