Want to see a lot of EV on the road, come to the Phoenix area. Tesla's everywhere. I would note that we snowbirds come each fall to try and slow traffic down, and each year we fail. Speed limits have been complete thrown out now. I do not know why they even maintain the speed limit signs.

I still think that built in batteries in EVs was a mistake, they should have been swappable. Pull into a swap station and the robot swaps the battery for a fully charged one and bills you for the amp hrs used and sends you on your way in a couple minutes.

I fly electric model airplanes and race 1/10 scale RC trucks. Both hobbies are based on swappable batteries.

Same thing going on the Katy TX area. I can be driving and pretty much spot a Tesla at any given time.

Also I much prefer OS Max gas powered engines for model airplanes.

Typical forum BS. ...

"Battery fires were such a huge issue for General Motors that the company had to issue a mass recall on the Chevy Bolt EV. The recall cost the company over one billion dollars. GM is looking to cut ties with LG following its battery fire issue....

Battery fires were enough to make GM want to abandon its partnership with LG. It seems LG isn’t the only company that is producing EV batteries that can cause fires. According to CNBC, the F-150 Lightning models that are fire risks are powered by SK On batteries. These batteries power several popular electric vehicles, including the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6." What part of this news story is a lie ????. This same news has appeared in other business news articles besides motor biscuit KH. Many RVers own other EV vehicles besides the F 150.

GM and LG continue a partnership to build Ultium batteries.

GM did replace batteries for all Bolt's.

There were less Bolt fires than Tesla's running into parked emergency equipment on the highway.

I own a EV, gasoline, and diesel. I use what makes sense. Please continue to research information from reliable and varied sources.

Since you are desperate for the last word, you can have it sport. Happy trails to you.

Ya gotta love it, anyone who disagrees with me isn't open minded and a censor. LOL

No not at all. I just don't think they are special or superior to us ICE Dudes and I agree with Elon Musk on many issues. I do see we have a few censorship members on the forum and my post brings them out of the woodwork. Cheers to the open minded.

Here we go again. ATC please.

Hey Nam, what’s a KH? Btw

Fwiw, when you use an acronym if it’s not widely understood or in enough context to decipher, it’s usually spelled out the first time with the intended acronym following it, in parentheses.

Not mandatory especially in casual conversation such as this, but in the spirit of you being just the “objective messenger”, wanna make sure I didn’t miss anything important that may affect my decision to buy a Ford Lightning.
(The new ones, not the cool old supercharged ones, of course )
