...ban new ICEs in 8 more years

There might be a "hidden" ban on existing cars in place right now, and we don't even know it. According to the morning news on Newsmax, it's taking months for many auto repair shops to get the needed parts for repairs. Likely due to the supply chain backlog that's still not being addressed.

In our clubhouse pool (senior community) it took 7 months to get a part for a handicap chair that lowers people into the pool. The centrifuge bathing suit spinner and drier has been waiting for a part for almost 3 months now.

If your car is sitting in a repair lot waiting for a part, maybe an EV looks a little better?

Miraje,
And idiot pols in the EU and in CA and in WA (where the greenie moron governor Inslee plans to ban new ICEs in 8 more years) cannot mandate what's impossible to achieve.
I love how guys like Wharfie dance around this inconvenient truth.

Every time I ask him what happens if the politicians drop their "commitment" to the ICE ban, he proves that he can never give me a straight answer.

That reflects the exact attitude that the politicians in the EU, the left coast, and the cult of Alexandria Occasional-Cortex demonstrate.

Express any doubt, and they'll portray you as a Luddite who would have opposed the transition from horse-drawn carriages to motorized vehicles.
