What “baloney” is being spread about electric cars?

That they're anything more than a rich man's toy.

Actually Mahindra has a much better idea. They're opening a factory near Ann Arbor to build electric scooters marketed toward college kids and other city dwellers. They aren't wildly inflating range and have an eye on keeping costs low (in the $3,000) range.

Scooters don't make a lot of sense for winter but they have also opened a tech center to develop other vehicles that will be stable in winter conditions. They're also looking at selling them from existing auto and cycle dealerships around the country.

So the only “baloney being spread” that you can come up with about electric cars is “That they’re anything more than a rich man’s toy”?

And then you immediately state:

“Actually Mahindra has a much better idea. They’re opening a factory near Ann Arbor to build electric scooters”

And THEN you’re trying to disprove the assertion that electric cars are a rich man’s top with the argument that electric SCOOTERS are a better idea?

That’s some really weak tea, dude. Really weak.
