Re: Annual Federal Mileage Charge
Some may recall how the gas guzzler tax got phased out because it cost more to administer the program than they took in. Deja Vu all over again.
With GM and others goals of being 100% EV for light vehicles by 2035 I suppose they do have to come up with something but like all federal programs it will be inefficient and take lots of tweaking. Think they are well aware that rural residents will pay more than their fair share but that’s the same with the current gas tax. Probably a given that the gas tax will go up as well so the road to the races isn’t going to get any smoother. Reagan’s “seven most terrifying words” comes to mind.
In the interest of being open minded I’d be curious about what Washington state members think about their pilot program.
