  1. Electric Nascar Racer: sponsored by Asea Brown Boveri – Swedish washing machine manufacturer . . . at least their overalls should be clean.

  2. With everything electric catching fire and blowing up lately, why doesn’t Ford get it over with and remake the Pinto?

  6. And people wonder why their electric rates are skyrocketing; Way more demand and very little increased production. What do the super-geniuses think will happen when 30-40% of vehicles are electric? Want more brown-outs/rolling blackouts? Cause this is how you get them. And don’t even get me started about combining that problem with more DEI hires to take care of the power grid. Now if they’d start talking about ramping up nuclear power in a BIG way all this happy horseshit MIGHT work. Oops, almost forgot that when you consider the entire energy cost of building an EV and then, eventually disposing of it, you come out on the losing end of energy consumption. Yeesh!

  8. E.V.s are just Mechanical Woke.. All shit..
    When they started shoving this stupidity down our throats I would agree with Some hybrids. They aren’t full on Stewpid. As long as ya got gas, you can survive a traffic jam in the snow.
