[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5387345, member: 24302"] Why should I answer you when you won't address the 500 lb gorilla in the room? You talk of Tesla like they have special powers but they can't get around the coming roadblock of availability of the metals needed to make them in mass numbers. Neither they or any other EV maker. Yes, for daily commutes and errands no one needs a vehicle with more range than what a Tesla can deliver. For most people one charge a week should meet their needs. But the world is getting turned upside down to put us in vehicles that ultimately will bankrupt our natural resources. And politicians have in all likelihood been informed that eventually we'll run out of the metals needed and they're doubling down rather than admit they made a mistake. The resource debacle likely won't happen for a decade or two so let the leaders down the road figure it out. New technology will probably solve it anyways. [/QUOTE]
