People are not buying lemons if the taxpayer doesn’t pay part of the bill.

Slightly OT but I wonder how Amazon is liking those EV delivery vans you see everywhere. The other day I noticed “Powered by Rivian” stamped on one of them, so I guess Rivian must be building the chassis or at least the drivetrain. The delivery scenario where you’re never far from home base might be one where EV works.

When was the last one?

Around my parts, last week. But the media still does a good job of not digging too deep to ascertain the cause of many of the suspicious fires that always seem to start in the garage area. I guess they are down with the green agenda like some geniuses here.

The upside to putting out a fire for an ICE vehicle is that it’s considerably cheaper and easier than an EV fire.

how did the extreme radical greens capture the entire federal government?

Focus. If only America's increasingly monopolistic federal government could be broken up into 50 independent economic competitors, each specializing in their geographic advantages. That would be revolutionary.

These manufacturers are so behind the times, I’ve test driven BYD’s all electric and hybrid vehicles. They’re something else luxury wise and way better turn ratio than the Tesla. I’ve rented some lovely Audi hybrids as well, but these basic models no one wants unless they’re mini smart cars for under $10,000

Yes. And have the federal government only in charge of national defense, currency, the post office…like the founders envisioned

Agreed. Mother Government Mandates will NOT be ignored!
