“Excuse the frack out of me. All those electric vehicles are fossil fuel powered. Are you happy now?”
Not all but so what! I bet you have a gas-powered AC unit?
What is your problem with a better vehicle that costs less to run?
American motorists use over 140 Billion gallons of gasoline per year. If everyone switches to electric vehicles, how the hell are they going to increase generating capacity to replace the energy of 140 Billion gallons of gasoline per year?
States like California that are trying to phase out fossil fuel power plants already do not have sufficient generating capacity for current needs. The more states try to rely on solar and wind the more they have to rely on oil based backup generators for when the sun isn't shining and the wind isn't blowing.
Plus vehicles with individual gasoline powered internal combustion engines are far more efficient than trying to power them all from centralized power plants. At least 5% of electricity generated in power plants is lost from transmission and distribution alone.
So feel free to drive a fossil fuel powered electric golf cart. I am sticking with a nice big gasoline powered truck or SUV.
