      You need to get out and touch grass. There is more missinformation (and disinformation) about EVs than factually correct information. No one is willing to have a real discussion because the cult is regurgitating the misinformation and big oil disinformation. Right now EVs are for the rich and the lithium would be better being used on solar farms to clean the electricity grid.

        I’m willing to have one, I thought we had one, but you are just starting to talk about cults …

          It is. EVs have a cult following and it’s resulted in enormous amount of marketing misinformation and is a MASSIVE detractor for anyone wanting to have frank discussions. Now I will also admit ICE has its cultists as well but the difference is no one can make baseless claims because we all own one and know exactly what they do and don’t do and no one is claiming otherwise.

              You would have to explain that. You inserted yourself into it.

                What. This is about feasibility of different technologies of EVs, but you keep talking about cults. So I’m asking you, what do cults have to do with this discussion?

                  Said everyone that I know that bought an EV.

                  So now it’s a topic change from your own post. Good to know.
