Overview:
Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

I agree, but I'm also continually amazed at the amount of bullshit talking points they continue to come up with. My neighbor is full blown Republican, like has Fox News running 24/7 in his house. I gave his kid a ride to school and his kid told me that I should be paying more in taxes for my EV because it's so heavy and destroying the roads (something he must've heard from his dad or the TV).
I pointed out that his dad's Tahoe weighs 1,500 pounds more than my EV.
You know what, we actually do pay more. My state has a $240 or so ev surcharge on our annual registration.
