28% say they’re impractical, when in reality it’s 100 % NO GOOD!

And they also don’t have the electrical capacity on the grid to support the numbers of EV’s they are pushing for.
The EV believers have this magical thinking over it, “you just plug it in!” and that’s where they stop analyzing it.
They don’t consider where or how the power to charge their vanity toy is generated or transmitted.

Does it matter. Corporate America has decided it, EVs Über Alles!

Rail. But we would still need something to move the cargo from the rail yard to the warehouse.

They are not intended to be “practical.”

They are intended to limit mobility range and be remotely controllable.

Electric vehicles are practical only as a commuter car and if you can plug it in at your house and keep it in your garage. Otherwise no. And only as a commuter car.

By the time President Trump becomes President again, this EV hoax will have been proven, and the American people will have soundly rejected it and the people who support it!

We the People will have elected a sane President, a sane Congress and a sane Senate!

They will end this “Green New Deal” insanity!

Chinese powered EVs, solar panel “farms” and windmills will become a footnote documenting the disastrous insanity of LIEberal politicians!

Al Gore, AOC and the “Squad” will be footnotes to the “Climate Change” insanity, also!

January 20, 2025 cannot come too soon!

I think for driving around town etc. they are probably OK. I sure would not want to drive one at a distance on a regular basis.

Labor Day weekend coming up.

Summer’s last hurrah...

I don’t know how anyone will tow a boat and/or an RV with an EV...

I’ll more than occasionally forget to plug in my smartphone overnight. Imagine forgetting to plug in your car.

Not to mention the huge tractors, combines and other large diesel powered machines — you know, the huge machines that make modern farming actually work!

Yep, I’m planning to do a 700 mile (each way) road trip over a holiday weekend. Given recharges needed and demand for charging spots it’s not possible with any current electric car.

I kind of like the hybrid ones. Seems the best of both worlds. Elon Musk claims those are only for the “transition” to electric but I don’t see why. . .
