    A dollar today has the purchasing power of about 1/3 of what a dollar in 1980 had.

    A gallon of gas bought today with a dollar that had equal value to a 1980 dollar would be about a buck a gallon

    You do a lotta cannonball runs in your day to day???

    Can't? Extension cord too short? It ain't there yet. Let me know when it will run on a Mr. Fusion reactor.

    This is why the FED should be abolished. A government institution that tries, on purpose, to maintain a steady rate of inflation to insure that Americans have to stay in the workforce longer because their dollars will buy less when they retire. The FED is a stain on the economy. It's public enemy number 1.

    I was right

    Yes that is why you had to affirm it through words and its de facto existence did not just permeate on its own merit.

    You’re acting like a traditional gas powered car can run indefinitely. What is your point here? That batteries have to charge??? No shit.

    Like I said when it can charge as quickly as filling a car with gas and have similar range and able to do similar workI'll think about it. Until Hell no!

    Again how will you produce enough electricity to plug millions of cars into high scores chargers? Ever see the electrical equipment for a multiple charging station setup?

    Did you forget about the part where you can charge your vehicle at home? Or in an office building? And building new charging stations is part of the plan.

    I get that the charge isn’t instant. But for like 99% of daily car rides the amount you can charge overnight at home is way more than sufficient.

    Right so you still need a vehicle that can travel or haul. Now you need two cars instead of one. Double the space. Double the insurance etc. Not practical yet and there won't be enough electricity to charge them all. I guess we could build lots of coal power plants.....

    I feel like you’re fixated on the fact that it isn’t currently built out. The point is it could be. The tech is there. We should be asking how we can make it happen.

    ....and he said ‘call me when you get there’. What’s so hard to understand? I just bought a new vehicle and took a hard look at various EV and hybrid models but the additional costs and distance limitations were a deal killer (even with the Fed rebates and WA State tax exemptions).

    It will never get there. OK for short trips in town not for travel or any serious work. Again answer where you will get the massive amount of electrical power to charge many millions of electric vehicles? Why are you dodging that simple question?

    Wait, you think generating the electrical power needed will be an issue?

    Wow.

    Scale is the issue

    When alternative energy scales for mass consumption someone will be there to cash in. It's not like nobody is working on it just because we dont have massive government intervention
