Yikes who would downvote this comment? Pretty gross how many people love cars more than humanity and the planet.
Well, I did, and its not because I love cars and hate humanity/the planet. Its that this is such an irrelevant comment on the topic and is just looking to derail and invite argument that you yourself are perpetuating with your Strawman you posted here. I don't downvote because I disagree with an opinion. I downvote when the posts are actively working against topical conversation to the thread.
That poster did the equivalent of going into a thread about threats to livestock and said "everyone should be a vegan".
Oh, I downvoted you too, BTW.

Love that analogy.
I do worry your '256 cars' is a little low.

Yes. Great Scott! We shall mount it externally with wood screws and call it MrDifFusion but it's really just a cheap genny from Home Depot, Marty.

I downvote for terribad writing, but I seem to be alone in that.

Edison motors in Canada is getting ready to put out conversion kits for pickup trucks to convert to series hybrid (onboard generator, all electric drivetrain). It's not for a short term profit, more of a right to repair and a stance against planned obsolescence.

Pretty much. When all your freedoms are being taking away you have to cling to the few things you are allowed to, even if those things are part of the problem.

Fine, burn it to to ground rebuild it with a fucking mandatory charging and payment standard from the beginning.

Ah, I must have misunderstood when I read that Sweden was banning gas cars all together in Stockholm. Guess they're just ahead a bit.
