We won’t have a choice. The big international companies are shifting to EVs across the other big markets in Asia and Europe, and the economies of scale just don’t make sense to keep on making ICE vehicles for the US market alone. We’ll be like England in the 70s and 80s with its highly idiosyncratic and antiquated…

Conservative here, I’ll save you the Billy Madison-esque “we’re all now dumber” speech.

Could have taken you all of two seconds to Google her name and find out that she’s black/Hispanic.

yes and no. For individual mass transportation, it is possibly not the best choice. Even though the Honda FCX Clarity has proven for more than 10 years now that it CAN work.
The storage and transportation is the big deal. We have several places on earth where we have lots of renewable energy, but can’t get it away,…

Its not. Look into JCB Equipment and what they’re doing--how shockingly far along they are. 

T.L.D.R version: Firefighters can easily deal with EVs

I’m a 35 year veteran firefighter, 13 years as a Battalion Chief, so I know what I’m talking about. EV fires are a concern, but not a huge problem. True, firefighters need to be informed about handling EV fires, but they are a kin to other types of situations we…

The ban only applies to commercial vehicles. Author could have done a better job, instead of blanket labelling all diesel-powered vehicles, could have been more specific that this applies to commercial fleets only.

No, it’s not... The only way to compare deaths between countries is by checking at the number of deaths per billion kilometers driven. That’s the only way to compare a country like the US where people drive a lot and spend a lot of time in their cars (therefore multiplying chances to die in it... if you spend 3 times…

Too bad the settlement didn’t require the CEO to spend at least one day in jail to experience what Hertz put their customers through.  

That’s actually kind of cool. I wonder if something like the F150 Lightning could be designed with a generator module that drops in the front of the bed like a tool box and makes it a temporary hybrid for long hauls. Seems like that would be ideally suited for something like this. Make it slide out for when your just…

Wait, how did he get on the hood in his designer jeans and un-laced boots without getting wet?

That is a lot to pay for a Freelander. I hope they make a Defender again one day.

In Finnish, flatovercrest is just one word.

I always got a kick out of his tendency to start sentences with “OK, yes.”
Interviewer: “Are you getting too old for this?”
Gronholm: “OK, yes...no.”

I hope that the UK criminal system actually helps people

Technically it’s actually champagne not sparkling wine since Bollinger is legitmately from the Champagne region of France.

Florida man’s got nothin on UK’s finest 

On-To-Ottawa Trekkers fought for equal rights based on their lived experiences while the Freedom Convoy is based on conspiracy theories swirling around lifesaving vaccines at worst, or just a contrarian “cause I don’t wanna” attitude at best.

That whole thing smells like a scam. Big fat scam.

You’re damn right that Norway should be proud of their fjords, Slartibartfast won an award for them!
