Gasoline used in a lawn mower or weed whacker is still charged road tax at the gas station.

Problem: Electric vehicle owners are not paying for the road infrastructure they are using.

Rather an odd article. The assertion being that new cars are good, and the proof being that the author throws a bunch of hyperbolic insults at an old Mitsubishi Mirage/Colt, never drives it, and then details a test drive of a new Mazda to “prove” his assertion.

“A shooting brake has, at most, two passenger doors. A shooting brake is based on a two-door car with a generally sporting character. It’s a sports car version of a wagon. It cannot have four doors...”

Reads story about electric car with dead lithium-ion battery pack...

Every crew member that touches the car between the start and finish is required to drive at least one lap.

The level of excitement a vehicle is capable of producing is calculated exactly by placing the number one over the number of cup holders contained in same vehicle.

“...all 269 body variants of every single Toyota ever sold in the United States...”

Automakers don’t care about the warmist claims. They want legislation to narrow the range of products allowed sold in the market to limit competition.

“Hyundai claims the new Veloster... ...is meant to serve as the brand’s halo car.”

Hyundai would generate more sales if they could come up with a way to project the hologram over the exterior of the car, to make the vehicle look like anything but a Hyundai.
