Been reading thru all these post and the post over at ST-Owners on this subject and I have come to this conclusion. I don't have a issue with EV's or Hybrids, or Internal combustion vehicles. I think the technology for all of the different types of vehicles is interesting. It is your money, your circumstance, your vehicle. Live and deal with the pro's and con's of your choice. Buy what your life style supports. Don't bitch to others about their choices. What I do have a problem with the the "Holier than thou" attitude that either side of the issues have against the other. But most of all I hate that the Gov't is involved in deciding what choices we can make and has turned this all into a political "us against them" issue. The Gov't needs to stay out of the technical development and choice business and let the laws of the commercial market and the consumer decide what is to be available to the consumer. The Gov't should not dictate what or what type vehicle we should own. And this also applies to Gas Stoves, Lightbulbs, Dishwashers, Refrigerators, Hvac units , and a host of other products. The consumer and the free market will make the correct choices. There is a time and place for Govt intervention and that should be as small and short as possible, not the overriding factor. Again, Buy what you need, want, and what your life circumstances dictate for you. Choice is the operative word here.
