Your tax dollars at work: In 2021, Congress appropriated more than $5.5 billion for eco-friendly buses under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill.

Worst place in the country to do E.V. as half the year is below freezing

The people who bought these things with taxpayer money should have to pay the taxpayers back for this bullshit.

Hey, they sort of worked for 3 years! Good thing they kept the old ones as backup.

Why does a town with 10,000 people and wide open spaces need 31 buses?

On a good note, diesel fueled short bus’s are still operational to transport anyone that supported battery operated tyco buses.

Who the hell is riding buses in Teton County?

The question to ask if someone has a discussion about the merits of electric vehicles.
Would you put a loved one in a EV or conventional vehicle to travel in a snowstorm or other inclement weather?

That’s what happens when a nest of filthy democrat cockroaches get a toe hold in a community in an otherwise glorious conservative state.

Ski town. Tons of low wage workers. Lack of parking.
To: Robwin
Now they are going back to diesel? Just because the electric buses stopped working?? Such racists!
To: ElkGroveDan
Some of the county’s 2 million visitors per year and low-paid tourism workers.

Do you think there were some kickbacks influencing the decision, or just stupid people thinking they were saving the world?
To: IYAS9YAS
But but but NO Emissions of global warming exhausts! Hahahaha.

Here in Nashua, NH the city buses run on NATURAL GAS.
There are no natural gas deposits in New England. So, it gets piped in from Canada or comes into the port of Boston as LNG.
You would think it would be sensible for a place like Wyoming to run their buses on Natural Gas.

Hard to know how many bucks got skimmed off these deals....
I'd guess millions.

Ummm, yes. Both of the above.
