Lexus advertisement talks trash on EVs

[Nubo]

20th century car arguments:
carburetor vs. fuel injection
manual vs. automatic
NA V-8 vs. 4cyl Turbo

21st century car arguments:
Gas vs. Electric
Hybrid vs. BEV
Batteries vs. Fuel Cells

Nubo, you nailed it! I was just going to point out how, in the '70s, I believed that fuel injection was too complicated and expensive to ever be accepted. Try to find a carburetor today. So it has gone with the hybrids. While I don't think EV's will ever be universally applicable, I think eventually the only other choice will be a hybrid. The technology is just too compelling.

In an odd sense, the same thing went down with Tesla and the 7000 laptop batteries. It was obvious to me that this was too complicated to ever be practical. Look at 'em now!

Seems to fit in with their up coming move from CA to TX.

Of course, Nissan's move to Tennessee seemed to coincide with an embrace of EVs.

Are you implying TX is embracing EV's from an environmental perspective?

No, they just want the money and jobs...
