a reminder of the issue that Tesla had a few months ago

a server issue that prevented people from driving their EVs

I think they are a GREAT idea!
As long as the batteries do not have transponders.

lots of issues with EVs

battery reliability
EV range in various weather
power generation
power grid
recharge time
use in emergency vehicles and recharge

can you imagine a Fire Engine needing a recharge at a fire? do we need battery trucks now also?

EV's aren't even a good idea down the road. I have been on almost every side of the energy production game. Each time that I solved a technical barrier to the latest environmentally friendly energy technology, Lucy moved the goalposts and said that we should pursue a less environmentally friendly and more costly technology. I shrugged from that field in 2010, moving on to tissue engineering instead.

just as with the covid faux shots
follow the money...
and desire to control We the People

I agree, 25n56il4. Right now they are great for virtue signalling rich people who also have a gasoline vehicle. With that said, maybe if there are enough people buying them there will be enough investment dollars for the drawbacks to be overcome. Home computers were expensive and didn't do much in the beginning, but enough people bought in for the industry to grow.
