There's a good but short article in the August 21 Motor Trend about the reality of battery-powered cars and their "real" emissions.

Anybody that’s had a emissions analyzer in the tailpipe of a modern vehicle can attest to how clean they run. Remember the semi truck exhaust in the 60’s? And the zero power in the mountains? Last edited by 4406mopar; 07-09-2021 at 08:56 AM. |

You know, it's interesting, the Canadian politicians in Ottawa, our Washington, are mostly from the East, where they get NYC type
of weather. In the west, where in January & February it gets to -30 and colder, with serious wind chills to - 50, the Hybrids & Teslas battery's get ruined with great regularity. They have certainly enhanced the towing business. I'll be buying the last year they make & sell a real truck, & try to avoid the knee jerk reactions of unknowing Politicians. J.R. |

One thousand pound battery with 300 mile range or 20 gallon gas tank with 120 pounds of gas to go 600 miles. Which is a better deal?

No need to blow a gasket. It doesn't even go into effect until 2035, and a lot could change by then.

Truedope is an idiot! The American libtards will try to follow suite but I think all electric vehicles will go over well like a fart in church. Let see an electric 3500 series dully Chevy/Ford/Dodge truck tow a stacker trailer 500 miles on a single charge. I don't think so!

Ask the folks in the Pacific Northwest how their electric cars fared with all the heat related blackouts.
