[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those who think EV doesn’t run on coal, you better rethink that! Just what do you think still powers our electrical grid. An electric grid which could never support every American driving an EV. [/quote] +1. Only a fraction of the electricity made in the US is from renewable sources. Most US electricity is generated from natural gas, nuclear energy, coal, and petroleum. I wouldn’t spend extra money to get an electric car that essentially runs on fossil fuel and has an expensive battery that will make the car a junk heap. I don’t think this is better for the environment. It’s for rich liberals to broadcast that they “care” about the environment. [/quote] Lol 60% of the grid production in the US is fossil fuels generated and only 21% of that is coal. Natural Gas accounts for 39% of the power production and releases 50% less carbon vs coal. Nuclear 19% and renewables 20%(oh looks there is is the same as coal). Driving an EV reduces emissions by 75% vs GV but it depends on your mpg. Now the real reason why EVs will dominate the market is they are extremely fun to drive- fast, quick and quite plus little maintenance(just tires and bakes). You are one of those foolish conservatives who has never driven an EV because of your political beliefs. :roll: Man live your life and stop worrying about owning the libs. EVs are totally superior to GV. A friend has a Porsche GV and an EV. He and his wife fight about driving the EV because it is quicker and more fun to drive. He does not give a sh#t about the environment or emissions. He has already told me his next Porsche will be an EV. The f150 has already changed the industry. EVs are not just for the rich. Adopt or die. [/quote]
