In other news, I will be tied up for the next two days moving my worldly possessions.
I understand the electric cars and hybrids don't have enough power to pull a greasy string out of a duck's ass. I'll stick with my gas guzzling F150 until I am forced by the government to give it up.
ReplyDeleteI have nothing against electric cars. If people want to build and buy them, it's a free country. I do NOT approve of subsidies, and they should have to pay to responsibly deal with their polluting batteries when they toss them.

ReplyDeletePut over 100,000 miles on a company Toyota Prius. Surprisingly peppy. Still disliked the car.

The major pollution occurs in the manufacturing process so I have read.
Good luck with the new place, it looks nice!
ReplyDeleteIt came right down to the day. Future blog material. Shoe clerks! Grrrrr
ReplyDeleteI like the old school internal combustion gasoline engines. No, I don't like electric cars, diesel cars or rotary engine cars.
ReplyDeleteGive me pistons, cam shafts, gas and valves. I guess that rules out two stroke cars, too. Not that there are any out there any more. Now, two stroke motorcycles, that's a different story.
But electric? Uh uh.

ReplyDeleteI would consider electric if the range was better. I make many 300-400 mile trips.
ReplyDeleteYears in the car biz made me appreciate all vehicles.
