E-cars are the dumbest idea on the planet, and most of the outgoing FedGov's mandates toward them will be reversed with the new FedGov coming in January.
Out for 4 years. Lets see if the reality of every person on my street charging their 4x4 monter E trucks and lighting up the power wires like an f'ing toaster every evening actually occurs to anyone else by then.
CMP (local power monopoly) IS the antichrist.
They cut down a swath of woods in Maine to run a "green energy" compliant power source from Canada to Mass in order to do away with the ACTUAL green projects within the state that were FAR too costly.
CMP cut down the woods in the name of green energy in order to avoid loosing govt funding for green projects!!! OMFG!!!
The DAY my solar is finished, I'm cutting my power pole down and dragging it out to the side of the road for "proper disposal".
E cars are a HUGE problem here.
MONOPOLY power companies and computer cars are something NO ONE can afford.
In Maine, when ppls cars run out of gas or die on the side of the road, the owners die too. Winter is no joke here.
A dead battery every couple hundred miles in a state thats a few hundred miles long... how long will it take to deliver Maine potatos to the rest of the country? Do we REALLY believe the railway is THE solution? How long until trains are no longer allowed to run on diesel and need to be charged every 75 miles?
Electric is cute use for cops to write parking tickets and annoy ppl with in the cities.
Back on track... I AM thankful that "they" decided to get back into the actual automaking industry! I hope "they" ALL get together and realize that the "right to repair" is ingrained with US auto roots!
Model T was the first affordable car that EVERY American ciuld afford AND afford to maintain THEMSELVES.
They got turned into trucks and vans and farming tools/tractors of sorts. ALL to meet the many different needs of the consumer.
The idea that now cars can ONLY spy on you, that your car WILL be used as a listening device so marketing can "better enhance your travel experience"???
Who ever buys THIS, IS AN A-HOLE!
Hot rodding cars like these IS what made muscle cars popular!
Take the ability to work on the cars away and we have the EXACT same problem as stock r/c class.
Whoever pays the most wins the race, period.
Currently, we can still combat that buy being a "better builder" and a "smarter, more attentive driver"
Take the ability to pull data from your car and no tools to fix it. Now tell me what you have.
The direction that the E auto industry WAS headed was a disasterous and depressing one!
I'm VERY HOPEFUL everyone is right and we are on a road to recovery instead of repression!!!
