It seems like EV’s are too expensive and not worth buying if there’s no subsidy…

What do you suppose they’ll do with all those charging stations?

I’ve said all along they were not for me, people I know did change but have since sold their EVs and gone back to petrol/diesel. Thing is that’s whacked up the price of 2nd hand motors now.
“Last month, Ford’s CEO predicted that market share of electric cars would be cut in half once the federal tax credit for clean vehicles met its untimely demise on September 30.”
It is not so much people turning away from EV’s, as it is Trump helping out his fossil fuel friends & funders. I could have told you Trump hates the environment.
Absolutely Rox, the classic car business has gone off the scale with people wanting to buy no nonsense vehicles.
If Electric Cars had been invented before diesel, I can imagine the reception the new diesels would have got…Get yourself the latest technology in transport, they will take the world by storm…
Forget about charging your car with expensive electricity and wondering if it will get you to your favourite destination…Now you can bung in the tank just about anything that burns, and travel hundreds of miles without worrying. With hardly any electrical system to speak of, any garage will be able to fix your vehicle in no time, and no need for expensive and complex integrated circuits that have to be ordered from China, most parts come straight off the shelf.
Engines are so simple to understand, even a ten year old can fix one. And with no huge lithium battery strapped underneath, it will make your vehicle that much lighter, and all the power will be used to push it forward and not hold it back, and with hardly any fire risk if you hit something.
Leave it on the drive for long periods and the tank will still be full, and not in need of another charge.
Zoom off for up to five hundred miles on one tank of diesel if you buy a decent size one…
And you can even have the heater, radio, demister and headlights on in the winter without worrying if the 12 volt battery has enough charge, your trusty reliable diesel will even charge yer battery while you drive…No need to plug it into the mains.
And finally…A diesel engine will last you for life, they will still be motoring on after 300,000 miles…
Whatever did we do before Diesels?
Now you can relegate your old EV to driving around the golf course or deliver the milk with it…
Electric cars are a folly for the wealthy. Great in theory, unaffordable in reality.
I wish I’d said that Surfer…Brilliant!
