Oh really? You can smear all day but it doesn't change that you're hypocritical about the environment and about supporting the Palestinians.

We also need to improve infrastructure so that those that want to drive less/not own a vehicle have options, thus reducing the number of vehicles on the road. That means buses, light rail and trains.
And if you want to keep driving: keep on driving.

For those that say the absolutely need a gas vehicle because they need it for daily long drives:
That's fine. Just as long as we keep the public transit in metro areas and not try to force it on rural areas because some construction company kicks back money to the politicians.

Okay. So keep driving your diesel truck. Those will always have an application and place in the market.

We will always need something bigger with an ICE to haul away all the EVs that are involved in collisions.

Because yeah, gas/diesel vehicles never get in accidents.

I posted " collisions " , not accidents.
Once all EVs are in self driving mode collisions will increase since each onboard computer will consider that only it was following the proper driving instructions program.
Much like today's drivers.

Either that or traffic will come to a stand still because 2 driverless EV's can't decide who has the right of way.

According to GM, almost 1,000 of its nearly 2,000 Buick dealerships across the U.S. chose to take buyouts from the parent company rather than investing potentially millions into retooling and prepping dealers to service and sell EVs.
The buyouts mean that GM will now have just about 1,000 Buick dealerships across the nation as the automaker moves forward with adhering to President Joe Biden’s green energy agenda.
Dealers who are taking the buyout would give up the Buick franchise and no longer sell the brand. The dealer can continue to sell other GM models, such as Chevrolet or GMC, that often account for a higher percentage of sales.
Audi also announced that it was scaling back production of its EVs.

Only Half of All Ford Dealers Agree to Sell EVs Next Year | OilPrice.com
Ford said on Thursday that half of all 1,550 Ford dealers chose to sell electric vehicles in 2024—down from two-thirds that said this time last year that they would opt in to sell EVs for 2023.

Ford said on Thursday that half of all 1,550 Ford dealers chose to sell electric vehicles in 2024—down from two-thirds that said this time last year that they would opt in to sell EVs for 2023.
The slack buy-in from Ford dealerships comes even after Ford relaxed its requirements for dealers in the EV dealer program last January that mandated fewer L2 chargers and extended installation deadlines. Certified Ford EV dealers were once required to spend $500,000 for a single public DC fast charger, or $1 million if they wanted to be in the Elite tier of EV dealers. The extra $500,000 was for another fast charger and demo units, among other things. But the high price tag caused Ford dealers to balk.
