Fuel efficiency != “environmentally friendly”

It would be fully insane to drive around a 7,000 pound 200kwh EV with 800 miles range in the name of environmentalism.

Hmm, well I think we can agree there are better ways. IMO, nothing as good as saving a 15 YO Prius bound for the junkyard, with a rebuilt pack like I did that now gets 48 MPG on regular, and good for maybe another 100k miles.

I might also agree that having level three charging at most fuel plazas would be ideal. But I would not wait for that while burning gas in a 5k+ lbs F-350+ truck.

We have to get those dinosaur juice burning things off the road and for those that need them, replace with a CT.
