The idea that all cars sold will be electric at some point is truly rediculous. Since when do the entire planet live in large cities. Vast numbers of people live in rural areas - So are you saying that my friend living in the middle of Namibia is going to get rid of his truck to buy an electric vehicle so that he can be stuck 1000km away from civilization in the middle of nowhere with a charger.

This whole electric car thing might be ok if you live in Paris and you are surrounded by 10 nuclear power stations but it is a total farce for people outside of those densely populated urban areas.

Electric cars are a farce because the cradle to grave energy requirements to run them is no better than fossil fuels (It is actually much worse due to the mining of heavy metals) Where the hell do you think electricity comes from - Where do you think Lithium batteries come from?

The whole thing is a farce - all that it does is to shift the generation of energy to power plants (which burn fossil fuels and trees). You think you have $h1t with the petrol price - See what happened to the price of electricity in Texas when their grid failed.

You are living in a dream world - If you think you are cost effectively going to generate enough electricity to power your big fat 2ton car you are sadly mistaken and besides - where are you going to store your electricity (in your expensive lithium batteries) - Go see what a replacement battery costs on a Tesla or a BWM.

Look at what Tesla did to the guy that tried to power his house from his Tesla car during the Texas blackout - They chopped his nuts off.

My mind boggles as to why people jump on these idiotic bandwagons - Elon Musk and his Tesla nonsense NEVER EVER made a profit from his cars - Tesla is overvalued to such an extent that it would take 1600 years of production at their current rate to reach the value. TESLA MAKES ITS MONEY ON CARBON CREDITS - THE CARS DO NOT MAKE MONEY!

Then there is the idiotic Tesla stainless steel truck thing - There are very good reasons why cars are not made from stainless steel - Delorian tried that..... I bet Elon Musk made that silly truck thing on purpose to mess with the Fanboys - I can't believe that he is that stupid!
