survey i saw today stated only 47% thought or considered EV.

then the actual cost

A mid-priced internal combustion car that gets 33 miles per gallon would cost $8.58 in overall costs to drive 100 miles at $2.81 a gallon, the study found. But a mid-priced EV, such as Chevrolet Bolt, Nissan Leaf or a Tesla Model 3, would cost $12.95 to drive 100 miles in terms of costs that include recharging the vehicle using mostly a commercial charger.

On a yearly basis, assuming the mid-priced cars traveled 12,000 miles, it would cost $1,030 to drive an internal combustion car and $1,554 to drive an EV.

There's no money to be saved switching to an EV IMO anyway.
Between up front costs and maintenance/charging and the higher electric rates we wikk have to pay to "upgrade" entire electric grid...asshats shoving this bullshit down our throats.

You know how it is...
I have absolutely know doubt about that! I made my contributions during college and afterwards.

Pictures of weather girl.

I agree on the efficiency comparison between EVs and ICEs. I also agree on the fuktards.

Having medical issues sucks. Having medical issues and nobody special in your life really sucks.

Glad Steve called me and advised of Boo’s event!

I’ve texted him and not heard back.

Hopefully his nurse is taking good care of him!


Had a sick pupper that we had to put down last week and left for FL next day so haven’t been online much.

In light of the above, I give him a free pass for today; he doesn't have to STFU.
