Hi Kirk, The wind is coming out of the sails of the EV. As I've been laughed at for many years, I maintained that EV's will be a NICHE URBAN market vehicle. The electrification of vehicles is not the final and economic answer. The grid could never handle it and it won't until nuclear gets government support and that approach does deserve a mandate. Toyota's excellence in hybrids will once again gain traction. GM had hybrid Suburban's years ago. Auto's will get 4 cylinders with turbos and coupled with hybrids have superior efficiency. Next in a true answer to ending pollution will be the Hydrogen car. I drove in a GM experimental hydrogen car in 2005. Hydrogen furel cells were used in the Apollo moon program. The technology has been aimed at reducing the need for precious metals used in the cell. Toyota has said they've achieved that obstacle. It's a glorious world ahead of us! Sad to think of all the trillions wasted on a plan that was guided by politics and not sound scientific solutions. Resale values on EV I suspect will be horrible in the near future. A great example of LEASE IT not BUY IT. Bob
