Hi 7kids,

Differing views are always good to consider.

EV's have ushered in new design features, large screens, neat led lights (automotive jewelry). Both of which are being woven into ICE autos.

The main inconveniences of few charging stations, long charging time periods and the dirty little secret that they are not energy efficient compared to the fossil fuel ICE models.

If one looks at the total price to the world that EV's extract, we've been sold a bill of goods.

No doubt they'll improve in the future.

When they are so popular that entrepreneurs build charging stations without government subsidies (like EXXON MOBIL and CHEVRON have), I'll morph my view on their acceptance potential.

One thing for sure that makes me bristle is when politician's over reach the individual's right to choose by imposing mandates or laws that crowd out individual choice.

When those strong-arm techniques like California and China impose, I believe the dogs just are not eating the dog food.

In between, we just are not getting the total story.
