100%. As I keep saying, I will probably end up with at least one electric vehicle in my six car fleet at some point. But I assure you of this, during the hurricane evacuation that will not be my go to vehicle for obvious reasons.

I've been following EV since before the GM EV1. EV has been and still is just a promise. It WILL be better, it WILL be faster, it WILL provide range, it WILL recharge in 5 minutes. I've been reading the same shit for 20 years; "it will come". People buy on the here and now, not on promises. If EV was ready, then there would be no proposed 2035 ICE ban, there'd be no tax rebates, there'd be no proposed EPA emissions regulations that essentially abolish ICE. A new battery technology is on the horizon we've been told over and over. When it gets here, it's back to the top of the cost curve. The lithium ion tech has bottomed out on the cost curve and the average EV is $60K. It's great to be optimistic, but tech doesn't always get better and cheaper. I've not found one resource that walks through the engineering and cost curves that show EV get cheaper and offers as good or better performance than ICE (cost, recharge speed and range). It's just a promise, we have to believe, the Planet is at stake. Please. Lol. |

I can't even imagine Florida. Why don't they dig it up and build it smaller and higher?

lol, yeah things are getting better everyday! Wages are going up! Cost of living is going down! There’s an increasing percentage of younger home owners over previous generations! Demographics aren’t changing at all! Infrastructure and city layout is ideal! People act like the current state of the tech is the only thing holding back EVs from taking over. It is such a multilayered situation, it’s practically impossible to consider all factors. Yet it’s seemingly the solution to all our problems! How asinine can we be?

Why would we do that? Florida is fine. Best state in the union. I’ll take our freedom over any other state and what they have any day of the week. Cracks me up when my colleagues from New Jersey roll their eyes as Florida as tens of thousands of their fellow citizens evacuate their state to Florida every month seeking asylum.

^ Few years ago we went to Miami (at the time when Houston flooded) and were surprised at the amount of stayers in our hotel from NY and NJ, not that surprised as when we waited for our connecting flight in Newark it was freezing there.

Oh yes. All of south east Florida (not Miami) are refugees from New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Mostly Philadelphia. Not surprisingly it’s the worst run part of the state. The rest of us tolerate them though.

Didn’t nyc ban the sale of new gas cars in 2035? I know the ban has been made but isn’t nyc cemented for that ban? When I buy cars, or think about evolution the last thing I’m thinking about are fucking section 8 people. That’s why you think it won’t work, because what about them? Lmaoooo ok man Let’s have fun in 2035! Let’s go Elon!

BGM lol you must be enjoying having your arm twisted to being told you can only buy a new car so long it's only an EV in 10-12 years time but this policy may be retracted after all anyway.
I've let my party know that I won't vote for them if they continue on this path |
