Wow, that is an absolute dumpster fire of a headline.

Wow that is terrible. File a noise complaint with the police. When that inevitably achieves nothing...

Yeah, but no not really. NJB are a bunch of lying liars who lie, and they are all about the primacy of bikes. Not Just Bikes is all about bikes and running anyone not about bikes out of town. Sorry, Woody.

Good point about the truck size having a mandated connection to building height.

Lol the fire trucks are the problem. You know a city school bus is 35-40 feet too right? Also a standard city bus.  Maybe they are making the roads this way so public transportation can navigate them.  Interesting how the same manufacturers make fire trucks and buses and they are similar lengths.  It seems weird to…

Really? Picking on fire trucks?? What’s next? The ice cream truck music is too loud and killing kids!!!

How about we deal with the underinsured knobs who think “cutting up” is fun first? The size of our firetrucks is hardly cracking the the top 1000 on my list of concerns with our roadways 

Nothing has changed for us.

TLDR: Cost and Capability.

Longevity. That’s my problem.

Price and lack of infrastructure. We go camping deep in the mountains a couple times a year, and there are few to no charging stations anywhere in the areas.

Two things:

Price. Mostly.

My work with an endangered species precludes any commercially available EV. And the vast majority of new infernal combustion vehicles, for that matter.

Price and infrastructure. I buy a lightly used car (under $20k) for my use, about once every 10 - 15 years. I drive it until the wheels fall off. Then I replace the wheel bearings and drive it some more.  (That only happened once...)

Price. I have an outlet in my garage ready to go. I just cannot justify the price for an EV when it would be our 3rd car for commuting to work and running errands. My wife and I have vehicles for our hobbies and long distance trips. We want the EV to be small and cheap and not a luxury thing. My wife’s family kept an…

For me, I just don’t see the value proposition at this point in time. My current commute is <25 miles round trip, my commuter car gets up to 40 mpg highway, and it has very low maintenance costs. An EV wouldn’t actually be “cheaper to own” once I factored in the higher cost to buy, higher property taxes, higher…

Infrastructure, mostly.   We just bought an Outback and EVs didn’t hit our radar because we live in a townhouse and the charging options at home don’t really exist.  I expect this will be our last fully ICE vehicle, but a plug in hybrid or full EV may not be the best answer depending on where we’re living in 7-10…
