Like pushing a rope.

Collectivism forces dogs to be cattle.

Where is all that extra electricity going to come from?

They must think that adding additional outlets in a house increases the amount of electricity that is available.

Increases supply wil encourage greater sales. As if there aren’t enough EVs to go around. No one is stupid enough to mean this. They just think people are stupid enough to believe it.

“We are 100% in support of the future and the migration to EVs

Ya shoulda stopped right there and registered your complaint and the reality that says someone has there head where the sun doesn’t shine.

I misread in the beginning that it was Mexico. So stupid they ain’t.

This fad is dying rapidly and yet states haven’t read the news of the last several weeks.. GM and Ford are switching production back to gasoline cars.

Politicians lack critical thinking skills. They live in a bubble.

If you have a Tesla M3 LR, 1 charge should do it with ideal conditions. It would be 2 or more with winter conditions..

From what I read, pickup trucks are very popular in NM. Good luck with getting the locals to buy EV pickups..

Telling someone an EV is clean after they see one burst into flames and burn through the pavement is nuts

Your car was sliding over tarantulas? That would be the worst nightmare for me!

On the topic, I bought a new car last year — gas powered — and I love it. No EVs for this family.

Does any electric vehicle count? Can dealerships forceably bundle an electric golf cart or even electric bicycle with the purchase of a pickup truck to meet the quota?

Same here. I thought they had jumped on the bandwagon, too.

Meanwhile the power plants in NW New Mexico have been destroyed. So where’s that power going to come from? Maybe an EV with a trailer holding a gas generator?

The article say hybrids count, but didn't specify if it had to be a plugin hybrid. Plug in hybrids are actually less popular than EVs. Regular hybrids aren't all that popular either..

“a 3-2 vote”


A 3-2 vote by what I imagine is an unelected New Mexico Environmental Improvement Board and now New Mexicans will have to buy their IC cars in Texas, Arizona or some other neighboring state. NM features long empty stretches of road, occasional extreme heat and cold and probably not a lot of charging stations.
