I’m here for it. I’ll buy electric once range \> 600 miles.

That said, the Silverado EV was just able to pull that off… but they limited the speed to 25mph, lol.

I towed my boat to Keuka Lake last weekend at 72mph getting 13mpg with the Atlas, and when we ran out of gas refilled it in 3 minutes at a gas station that had a 99.999% chance of being open and able to refill my gas tank. Electric can get fucked.

Meanwhile GM just announced they’re investing almost a billion dollars in building small block V8’s and that noise you hear is Henry Ford spinning in his grave in anger.

Good, the market has spoken. Electric vehicles are fucking retarded. Stop forcing this green energy bullshit on us. I wouldn’t mind if it was a natural or slow roll out, but this government subsidized fuckery can die in a fire.
