Electric vehicles are all fine in theory, but 90% of them are charged at night, when there is no sun, and solar panels are useless. There are very few charging stations at places of employment, and how many businesses can find extra money to install and maintain charging stations, and electricity costs way more in the daytime. Even if millions of charging stations are built and installed, where is all that electricity going to come from? Huge batteries? Talk about a catastrophe for the environment. Fusion? Maybe, but by 2035? Ain't happening. And are folks able to pay the extra for EVs? My guess? As more EVs are sold, and less electricity is available, new and used ICE vehicles will become more valuable. So, buy as many 6 cylinder Power Wagons as you can store.
