Including buses? Dump trucks? Freight liner? It’s a pipe dream.

What runs out first? Will it be electric power, access to rare earth minerals to build Eva or oil?

IT is time for Texas to break off & take about 1/2 the states with them.

Has ANYONE thought about how much POWER will be required to run all these vehicles?

EVERY HOUSE will have a charging system???

EVERY APARTMENT/CONDO building?

EVERY BUSINESS???

The unicorns are laughing.

Completely childish and idiotic.

You CANNOT force into existence a new energy system by simply outlawing the existing one…

Who am I kidding… they’re deliberately out to destroy our nation. It’s the plan..

The car dealers in Idaho must be rubbing their hands together with glee. All of eastern Washington will just hop over the border to buy their gas vehicles.

You know what the next step will be, right? When the government figures out people have bought them elsewhere they'll ban the REGISTRATION of the aforementioned evil conveyances.

They did a study on this and no way could a break happen. Idaho would have to pay Washington for the land and Idaho is a pretty poor state without those financial resources to pay up.

For some reason I can’t help but think of Cubanos carefully preserving their 50’s era American cars after all the intervening decades.

I would love to know what provision in the Constitution gives states the authority to do this.

Washington's government does what Newsom the Vile tells them they must do.

Being the same weak sisters, Oregon's and Nevada's governments will soon do the same.

Their fantasy is that circa 2040 their EVs will be running on solar and wind power, hydro, and maybe nuclear power. Burning fossil fuels will be out. When the cruel truth is that solar and wind always need base load backups for days when the sun don’t shine and the wind don’t blow. These backups are natural gas aka fossil fuels releasing CO2.

So really all solar and wind installations need a second parallel expenditure on fossil fuel powered power plants for back up.

The market, sans tax breaks, should be left alone. Electrics might make sense for some people, but their downsides are many. This “shift” is not logical. The ban is not accompanied by a plan to provide either the grid or the source power necessary. They know the outcome will be economic chaos, and that middle and lower income families will be hardest hit. They don’t care. So long as they can zip around in their $100K Virtue Signal GT Sport Wagon without having to mix with lessers on the highway, it’s all good. Oh, but let’s not talk about their frequent jet-based vacations. Malicious Idiotic Bastards.

Personally if I was an oil company selling products in those states, I would announce that in order to support this transition we will be reducing oil supply by 8% per year until 2035 when we will stop supplying oil products.
