SMH at these green crusaders who think for short term and based on knee jerk reactions. Ethanol and Corn comes to mind. Wind farms and solar panels. Good ideas at first, and look great on paper but we know the outcome.

My family in China has an electric car. China has been really pushing EVs hard.
Some of the EV cars there have overcome the charging time issue by having exchangeable battery packs.

For me, I find PHEV like the RAV4 the most likely to "convert" me. I like being able to carry 200 miles of range in a 5 gallon jug.

I'm going to keep my ICE vehicles as long as possible. My biggest concern is how much will gas cost as ICE cars fade away?
