    For perspective, imagine your Honda CR-V was limited by regulation to a 10 gallon tank that takes you an hour to fill to no more than 8 gallons, except in an emergency.
    An, there are only 3 gas stations you can use within 150 miles.
    If you run out of gas you have to have it flat bedded home or to one of those stations.
    How much would you pay for that Honda CR-V?

      We pre-load it (it's a debit card) and it automatically gives us a discount at the point of purchase. We can buy up to 400 liters each month with it.

    Sometimes drivers lose traction in snow or ice then they start spinning the tires trying to get going. The spinning wheel(s) melt the snow/ice underneath that very quickly refreezes into ice, now you’re not going anywhere. Best to back up, if possible, and take another run at it using a light foot on the throttle or traction control…avoid spinning the wheels.

I fix boats for a living and plan to upgrade to a shitty Navara that will drink double the poor little Clio drinks (who has pulled out a 24" ft boat with a shitty trailer on a shitty ramp).

    The only things worth having electric would be moped or Vespa style bikes, electric bicycles, and electric scooters. That's about it. Everything else is just too heavy for the roadways we currently have, and too inefficient. I don't think anyone in Congress has thought through this push for EVs. Besides the power grid being old, we will have cars, trucks and big rigs that will weigh almost twice what they weigh right now. Like idiots, we put most of our sewer systems right under the streets. We already have issues in the North with softer land than warmer areas of the country. Along with the drastic changes in temperature, and the current weight of big rigs, they cause the roads to sink where the tires roll. The result is warped asphalt. Over a period of three years, the roads have to be redone to even out the surface due to this. We already can't keep up with potholes and road repairs in most states. Imagine what it will be like if we have every vehicle weighing 2x the current weight of the same vehicles, just ev versions. It will be an absolute disaster. Then we have to think of the bridges and their weight limits. Many bridges may have to have some sort of gateway system in order to use them, especially small bridges, to ensure that they don't collapse. Larger bridges may have to cut the amount of traffic crossing at one time in half, which will result in longer commutes and traffic jams. These things have been brushed off. The roadways and what's under them were not engineered to withstand extreme amounts of weight outside of the current standards. If we doubled the weight on those roadways, even over time, we will be setting ourselves up for many disasters and tragedies.
