Folks, semiconductors are great BUT they don’t work without electricity. An EMP would not only crash our electric grid, it would fry virtually every semiconductor.

True. But older cars have a mechanical distributor ignition system with points. They will take an EMP licking and keep on ticking …

Cars are not very susceptible to EMP. They have to be running to be affected and most cars only stall out and simply need to be restarted.
