Despite the possibility of Greta Thunberg having a nervous breakdown, is it prudent to be rushing headlong into this new technology?

Batteries can be very explosive and we've seen several go up in flames being fueled. What happens when they start running into each other?

I can't afford a new vehicle of any type, so it doesn't matter that much to me! :mrgreen:

Exactly! These people don’t have sense enough to pour piss out of a boot with directions on the bottom.

Roll through Philly. You would be shocked at some of the vehicles in lower income neighborhoods.

Always been true; but it's always been true in neighborhoods regardless of income level. Too many people think that their drive represents their status...

Yeah......if you live in your car you've got other problems......and no one wants to get a ride from you either. Nasty in there.

If this happens, I'll be looking for the 1st photo in the "Seen in Print" thread, showing these power stations being used or attempting to be used to power peoples homes. Has to be a DEM governor with this idea....their ignorance never ceases to amaze.

No, it doesn't. Seems like the usual ploy to keep the lower class income population down in servitude to yet another master.

But, it also seems very much like another fake news item.
