My hostility is not necessarily towards the electric cars as much as it is those who do not listen to any kind of reason, even when shown facts and common sense. I have stated multiple times that I am open to the idea that electric is indeed coming but I again stand very firm on my point that it is not ready YET. The affordable cars are not there YET. The infrastructure to support one of these being charged in every driveway every night is not there YET. My all electric tri-axle Tesla coal hauler is not here YET.franco b wrote: ↑Mon.

Lessening demand on gas is a good thing to keep prices down. A mix of fuels is good as each evolves.
Electric cars still have no long term, heavy duty use, so remain unproven, even if Tesla survives I suspect an avalanche of service problems as they age.
At this point he has done nothing but kill sympathy for his cause with just about everyone here, no one really cares anymore except those just now joining these conversations.
It’s an open forum, so carry on. I’m not here to censor anyone, just trying to make sure no one is disappointed with reality.
