Should the tax credit for EV’s be kept or not is debatable, there’s pros and cons on both sides.

If their target is $1/mile for ride sharing, it’ll be awhile before I stop buying cars.

Neutral. Morbid as hell! We’re Jalopers. I’ll be on craigslist looking at rust buckets while on my death bed!

That would give renewed meaning to 2.Slow.
