May sound counterintuitive, but low mileage in old cars.

I fully agree, but let’s see that initiative passing any time soon. It’s about as likely as seeing straight lines on voting districts.

per capita, a voter in Wyoming or the Dakotas has ~7x the voting power of a voter in California when it comes to electing presidents, 1.5x the voting power in the house and 78.5x in the senate

While I don’t think this bill would ever pass, the idea that Wyoming politicians introduced it would mean that they get to stay in office even longer because they are 100% pandering to their voter base.

You’re right, same principle works based on seasons, as well.

The point isn’t to get every single person out of their car, it’s to make it so people don’t have to rely on cars to get literally anywhere through better infrastructure, smarter zoning, and better mass transit.

Most people don’t have 22 mile commutes. And 52% of car trips are 3 miles or less.

You know. Cities and towns can be designed so that people could live close to where they work, or have enough mass transit to ferry people in and out of the city like almost everywhere else in the world instead of everyone driving their own car by themselves going to work.

Oh, and I’d like to mention, the “new” Z is a good deal, but you’re going to get raped by the dealerships because it’s a 1st model year.

Nissan’s actually delivering that fantasy and people don’t like that either. Car guys are never happy. ;)

However, within cities, interstate highways were designed for the convenience of people who didn’t actually live there.

I agree with this change and what it’s designed to do, but I do wonder how it will affect driver behavior and also enforcement behavior. Additionally, I wonder how it will change the laws regarding ticketing the DRIVER and not the OWNER.

During the day, clouds keep light/heat from getting in.  At night, clouds keep IR light/heat from escaping.  Not sure which has the greater impact day or night.

Maybe I misunderstood what you’re arguing.

So babies have higher priority? We adults want to live too...lol

Wow you really put a lot of effort into talking Tesla down. It really seems like you have no clue what you are talking about.

To be fair, heavy trucking is a massive CO2 contributor that isn’t going anywhere. Diesel technology isn’t making he sort of improvements in mileage that other ICE technology has had in the passenger vehicle space. And trucking is SO vital to this country and the big players have been horribly derelict in bringing in…

yes

Then you’d imagine wrong....Most New York workers live very far from where we work - my office is 8 miles from my house (the office I worked at before that was 13 miles from my house)

Gas stoves definitely have their advantage, especially in quickness (compared to old coil electric), and simply having an open flame for certain types of cooking. Open gas burners also provide excellent visual aid for what burners are on and how high.
