Hmm, then what's your purpose again?

The whole EV thing is the same scam as Hydrogen Fuel Cell cars were under Bush. It's not real. It never was real. It's just an opportunity to dump a bunch of taxpayer money on Detroit and give the petroleum industry another decade of profits while the US government pretends to solve oil dependency with one more fake solution.

They don't work. It's simply not possible. Cars can't continue to exist like they do today because every person carrying around several tons of metal everywhere just doesn't make any kind of sense.

Sure they can. Just give the $7500 credit to an EV worth its price.

I wonder if new vehicle sales are down overall. If I had to replace my car today, I'd be looking for something second hand.

Edit: According to Cox Automotive Inc., September sales were actually up 13% from last year. Huh.
