Not sure what climate you live in, but up at 48 degrees North, that just isn't going to happen. We'll keep the old ICE vehicles running until you get an EV that has at least 8" ground clearance, 4WD, the ability to carry a ton or better over 300 miles bucking snowdrifts while keeping the cabin 90 degrees or more warmer than the outside air (just at 50-60 degrees F inside), and has enough additional reserve to heat the cabin for 12 hours in case something should go wrong.

We don't buy vehicles for summertime play, but for the worst conditions we might face, and it IS a matter of life and death.

Same here; it could be a matter of life and death as well in FL. The climate here isn't EV friendly; summer rainy season, tropical storms, streets flooding, and hurricanes.  I can't imagine waiting in line in bumper to bumper traffic trying to get out of FL and no EV station in sight. Secondly salt water (even the sea air) is not friendly to the batteries. People with EV's have been warned to stay out of areas that may see storm surge. That accounts for most of Florida's coastal areas and a lot of inland areas.  No, Florida weather, water and EV's just don't mix.

Toyota claims their 2026 ev's can charge in 10 minutes.

Battery technology is changing so rapidly companies cannot keep up

That's nice. Charge it with what???

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wally_Adeyemo :

Adeyemo was born to Yoruba parents in Ibadan, Nigeria, and raised in Southern California. His father was a teacher and his mother was a nurse. He has two younger siblings. After graduating from Eisenhower High School in Rialto, California in 1999, he received a bachelor of arts degree from the University of California, Berkeley in 2004 and a juris doctor degree from Yale Law School in 2009.

He held banking and economics related positions in the OhBummer! MalAdministration, but he has zero experience in actually running a business, let alone a food processing business.

EV's are not going anywhere and will take over. I drove a Tesla and it was an incredible drive. How many people after buying a battery powered drill still use their plug in drill. Not many. I went to my local Pilot truck stop this morning to get gas and they are putting in 25 ev chargers.

Ford Lightenings was a mistake to begin with but do not blame EV's over them.

Whom did they steal that technology from?  And how were they able to bypass the laws of physics?  Besides, they already have the best battery they could possibly have.  It is lightweight and doesn't require specialty metals.  It is called a 'hydrogen tank'.


Batteries did not just come out.  They've been around for almost two centuries.

There are lots of battery claims. They're a dime a dozen... They also claim you can charge it in 6 minutes. With what? To charge a 100 kWh battery in 6 minutes takes a million watts... Or over 4,000 amps at 240 V... And that's with 100% efficiency (no losses)...
