I blew coffee out my nose at that point I laughed so hard!

The day the government stops interfering with the free marketing of automobiles, is the day that EV's revert to what they always were ... glorified golf carts.
They are an impractical solution, to a grossly exaggerated problem. A fraud, perpetuated upon another fraud as its basis. First you have to buy into the global warming (now "climate change") nonsense, then you can buy right into the so-called emissions problem and the supposed fossil fuel availability issue.
I owned a 1970 Pontiac GTO. About 300 horsepower and it got about 15 mpg on the highway.
My 10 year old, 365 HP Jaguar, gets 30 mpg on the highway and my 335 horsepower BMW gets 34 mpg on the highway.
If we put the same resources into ICE as we do EV's, we'd have cars that get 100 mpg, with emissions below detectible range.
