IMO they would have gotten to the end result faster had they pushed hybrids down our throats and then transitioned to EVs. People that own EVs don’t like them. Unreliable and inconvenient.

Poor, naive, sweet Jimmy.  The "end result" is 2/3 fewer humans with no cars at all.  EV mandates are merely a transition phase.

I am sweet. thx.  Since you wanna play cute the end result is the world ending due to evolution.

And hybrids were supposed to be a transition phase that was stupidly skipped because they wanted faster control of the power grid.  Ya I’m naive.

Isn’t it nice how the cart shuts down when you go to certain areas on the course they don’t want you to ??

If this is true, why are Tesla owners the most annoying car owners on the planet because they never STFU about how obsessed they are with their cars?

Not the ones I know.  All good old fashioned pick ups and SUVs running on gasoline.

I followed the recent cold snap when charging stations couldn’t be used because they were full of dead vehicles. People were pissed

Perhaps the new idea of solid state batteries will come to the rescue.   Actually, these look very promising.   Charge faster and hold more charge.  Win win.

That is democracy at work according to the D's.  Subvert the laws and regulations to get a desired outcome, that's democracy.  In what universe is the vineyard and Beverly Hills low income?

Toyota has been on that path for some time.   Hybrids make a heck of a lot more sense really.  Until something changes and EVs can "gas" up in 10 minutes and give another 300-400 miles before repeating, EVs will be an in town only solution weather permitting.

In the same universe where men can menstruate.  Natch.  Sheesh, dude, you aren't even trying?

Do I have to give other examples of things that happen in that universe?

Point taken.   I guess I was speaking about the real universe like we talk about the real world.  But you are right.
