Everything has consequences, IPhones have consequences

Great case in point.

Yeah exactly

Something progs routinely ignore.

Hypothetical: if this mandate results in more child slavery and damage from mines, is your virtue signaling worth it?

Dunno, personally I don’t care for the virtue signaling

I don’t oppose EV’s because “libs” or the hypocrisy

I know at least a couple of ice cars that will not be replaced. I will not be dictated to by woke libs.

By 2035 (before then, actually) the rational decision will be to buy an EV over a gas powered car simply because it’ll be a better car.

But you are certainly entitled to take the deeply reasoned “I’ll hold my breath until my face turns blue” approach instead. Maybe you’ll get a cookie!

No need to. It isn’t likely at all that TN will follow the lead of California loon/authoritarians.

If they even think about it we will run them out of office just like those who tried to force an income tax on us a couple of decades ago.

You vote for those who mandate.

It’s a flawed system, very narrow

@Guntsu

Call it virtue signaling, the environment, global warming, less dependency on oil, more efficient take your pick

All a bunch of Liberal B.S.

None…ZERO…of the Democrats doom and gloom predictions on climate have come to pass.

Maybe, but the EV’s will be sweet your grandkids will love em

The mandate is mostly window dressing.

No government mandate is ever “window dressing.”

And now you are crawfishing.

Where major manufactures already moving to EV before the CA mandate?

No. They read the writing on the authoritarian wall.

By 2040 they’ll be cheaper the ICE cars. They’re cheaper to build.

And by then they’ll have swapped to Solid State battery tech. Which will improve range and lower the costs even further. Plus they’ll have even longer life expectancies than current Lithium batteries.

I don’t agree with California’s mandate. It’s a misuse of government. But from the standpoint of the EV itself in ten years they will be the dominant form of transportation on the road.

I’m looking forward to my future of garage of an affordable compact EV truck and a gas guzzling classic 90s sports car as my secondary vehicle.

Doubt it. What are they now? 1 percent? 2 percent of cars on road?
