    Then they'll get broadsided by light-runners.

    When there is an affordable one that only weighs 3k pounds and is nimble and fun to drive that can go 350 miles on a 10 minute charge I'll be interested.

    I'm not even sure if that's physically possible. As a daily commuter though the current models have more than enough range.

    I bet you want people to eat the bugs and live in the pod too right? Drive your smart EV car that can auto repo itself when you say bad things on the internet.

    Once the ComDems pass the Green New Deal, errr I mean Infrastructure Bill, that will turn the rest of the country into CA you will have a hard time charging your EV during rolling blackouts. Or, afford to charge it when the cost of electricity goes up tenfold.

    Well my hope is that people learn to use technology responsibly, and start refusing to trade their liberty and privacy for free handouts. Not holding my breath though.

    That's why we bought property outside city limits. The plan is to try and get as much off grid as possible. It's not just the government though. Tired of eating crap food filled with pesticides and hormones and antibiotics. It's getting just about to the point that nothing at the grocery store or restaurants is worth eating anymore.

    How far do you typically drive in one day? 300 miles for me was about a week. Easily rechargeable overnight. On a trip somewhere? Quick charge stations are all around. By the time you pull over to piss and get coffee you're charged
