[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Wow, look at that - US invades yet another ME country, and this time it looks like it is catastrophic. Saudi Aramco is warning global energy infrastructure is on the verge of collapse. It will be real fun paying $9/gallon for gas. Why has the US not moved on from completely obsolete tech (ICE) that is 200 years old? Iran's threats would matter far less if we had more robust transportation immune to energy shocks. Why is this so hard to understand? EVs FTW .[/quote] It should be noted that while Trump has done significant damage to the spread of EVs in the U.S., he has not killed the industry by any means. EVs are currently a very valid choice, especially if you are in a situation to install a home charger (and even more if you can also install solar panels). My family has 4 EVs and with home charging and solar panels, are feeling pretty good right now. We have taken long road trips with the cars and haven't found any limitations. A little extra planning may be necessary, but that's all. One kid drives his car back and forth to college and has had no issue. There are several very good options for EVs available from both U.S. and foreign manufacturers. Public charging is becoming more available every day. There are a very few exceptions where EVs won't work, but for most of us they are a good choice. Despite the hostility of the Trump administration to EVs, don't be afraid to jump on the bandwagon.
