@AntonioBarba_TheKaneB An F250 will typically last 20-25 years with minimal maintenance. It will have less impact on the earth than a tesla and cost less to run than the Tesla over those 25 years.

@AntonioBarba_TheKaneB You're not going to pull a trailer with a yaris. In fact, you can't fit four people into a yaris. The key point is that over the lifespan of the vehicle, a gasoline powered car is far more friendly to the earth. That's the point. And I'm not saying you shouldn't buy what you want. What I am saying is the push to get rid of gasoline powered cars is misguided at best, and terrible for the economy and earth at worst.

There's very few people with engineering and science degrees saying EVs are going to take over in five years. Even if they were alike in features and capability (and they're clearly not) it will take 40 years for them to achieve parity in the market.
