You can’t fix stupid, just read the other day that democrats are requiring all school buses to be electric. The average cost of a diesel school bus is around 140k and the average electric bus is over 400k. Where is all this money going to come from. That doesn’t even include the cost to put in however many charging stations they’ll need. Oh and the range varies from 45 to 90 miles, I am sure that will work great in rural districts.

Talk about putting the cart before the horse. This is all by design, but it will go nowhere. Until the power grid is updated and bolstered to handle something of this extent, there will just be a lot of stranded people

Even if the ev would work in rural areas They never mention where all the new electric power will come from. Meanwhile we move from coal and hydro to wind mills 😂 I already read about California having brown outs from too many people running their air conditioner lol. It will all be fine.

This will bolster repair of used vehicles and their resale value.

It has nothing to do with reality sinking in though and everything to do with the courts telling them they can’t enforce their stupid ban

Of course all the states including ours on the left coast are adopting this, however it is new car sales. Yesterday I was listening to the Shawn Ryan show and his guest Randall Carlson talked about combustion engine conversions to plasma fueled which after warmed up emitted zero polutants. I belive Randal is from the Basin area, has been on the joe Rogan podcast and such.

20+ years ago I meet a guy that did some kind of plasma fule conversion and got 50mpg in his Viper. I thought it was some kind of scam, but perhaps it's real and the tech is being mainstream Ed now because of this EV push.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

Reading through this post reminds me of reading some of the historical comments when people said the automobile would one day replace the horse. Not sure you can set a hard time frame and not sure it will be evs, but the days of fossil fueled vehicles being the norm are limited.

My understanding of the plasma conversion in cars is that it is a different ignition system but still uses convential fuel. It may be cleaner but still produces CO2. Is this something different?

We’ll see hydrogen and possibly ammonia powered vehicles before, and if, EV’s become the law of the land

Faulty *censored* Logic at work again, even Musk says we cant survive on EVs alone, we need to run away from this mandate, or else we will fail, no one wants them and we are at Chinas mercy for the lithium

Dependence on Chinese lithium are pretty much over.
Already two major deposits have been found in the US. Limiting factor on EVs is there short driving range and limited charging locations. I suspect both of those problems to be figured out within 10.years  I fully expect my grandkids will laugh about the noisy old clunkers we drive now when they get in their alternate powered vehicle that will politely ask them where they want to go and then take them there while they sit back and relax.

Besides the environmental disaster EVs and their lithium batteries will be if they go through with this your electric bill will be outrageous due to the demand on the grid if can even handle it before there is rolling black outs or a 70s style rationing of electricity to charge a vehicle like they did with gas. When the government picks the winner everyone loses. The free market or what we have left of one will decide what people want it clearly isn’t EVs.
