When will they learn? Making pointless Net Zero gestures is apparently more important than wasting hard-earned taxpayer money on ridiculous electric buses that DON'T WORK when it gets cold..

Five new electric buses purchased by Burlington, VT can't be charged. Two reasons. (1) Buses had to be parked outside because of "fire risk". (2) Because they're parked outside, they're too cold to be charged. Total cost of buses: 8M dollars. And they're all sitting idle while diesel buses are running all day and all night without a problem.
Sounds like a communist country. Hey, wait. You said Vermont, comrade.
They didn’t think to order heated batteries for an outdoor application in New England?
Oh well, I guess it’s just another case of spending other people’s money on other people: you don’t care how much you spend and you don’t care what value you get for that money.

There’s something in the water in that state.
They’re just weird there.
Tragic Bus
Oversized electric golf cart fanbois hardest hit.
Electric car battery $14,000, Electric bus battery $100,000?
something tells me these busses were probably purchased with BidenBucks ...
It’s a feature, not a bug.
Heard that the school board came up with a solution. They are going to change the school year from April through September, avoiding all the cold months.
