  1.  @emceedoctorb3022  . And a Diesel will THRIVE in the Colder temps . Even better mileage .
    25
  2. I don't actually think much of Trump , BUT , That is a thing LONG overdue . The EPA has held industry " Hostage " for too long .
    23
  3.  @svr5423 . Nope . Nuclear heated STEAM powered . Do some research BEFORE Speaking .
    22
  4. Or just General Awareness either .
    21
  5.  @GerbenWulff . Nope . Not really . No where NEAR as high temperatures involved . Another EV apologist ignoring the Science .
    20
  6.  @TroySavary . Ah , here's today's Irrelevant Troll . Accuses WITHOUT supporting Evidence/Arguments .

  7. @theodavies8754 . Diesel Fuel doesn't Explode . EVER . Under any circumstance . Petrol CAN given EXACTLY the right circumstances . Whereas , B . E . V's are GUARANTEED to once Thermal Runaway has begun . PURE PHYSICS and Simple Chemistry , Pal .

  8.  @davidhusband5022 . Not to mention the 5 -10 tonnes of CO2 that went into it's manufacture............
    13
  9.  @gerbre1  . A vegetarian wouldn't have the Energy to run a mile.............. Hence , Less CO2 .
    13
  10.  @scaryfakevirus  Yeah Trees LOVE CO2 .
    13
  11. @dps615 . Clearly you were Not listening OR busily ignoring .
    13
  12.  @svr5423  . Zero " Carriers " use Electric Propulsion . So , Blatant Lie there . Even the Newer stuff with Electrical Drive Motors get their Power from SOME OTHER SOURCE . So they are Hybrid Drive systems . Please take your " Greenwashed " rhetoric somewhere Else . Thanks .

  13. All the EVangelist Apologists in the Comments ! They just saw the Actual Aftermath of that ONE ONLY BEV Mercedes , and the Attitude seem s to be " Yeah , and the Problem Is?......................" . None so Blind as those that REFUSE to see .
    12
  14. Best comment on the Thread.................
    10
  15. You mean " REFUSE " to see .

  16.  @gerbre1  . And it could just as easily happen to your Hybrid . Thing is , with a pure ICE vehicle , if you STOP the Engine you stop the Fuel Pump(s) and if you actually HAVE a functional Extinguisher , you have a reasonable chance of actually Beating the Fire . Just some common sense required .

  17. @ . What's there Rebut ? They ARE more difficult to extinguish than Normal Fuel Fire . There IS no debate about that .
    8
  18.  @oldbloke204 . Huh ? ! If a Bank has Security over the Private Vehicle then in the Event of a default , THEY end up in possession of the Vehicle . And Company/Fleet Vehicles go through Leasing Companies .
    8
  19.  @xpusostomos  There ARE Fuel Tanks below Cabin Floor in quite a number of Vehicles . And that Sloshing Around issue you're talking about ? Ever heard of Tank Baffles ? And what's called a Coffer Dam where the Pickup goes . Just thought you should know , so you don't sound like an idiot next time......

  20.  @justsomeguy934 . Hey , Pal , that Bowser Explosion that you linked . DID YOU NOTICE THAT THE GAS STATION ATTENDANTS MANAGED TO EXTINGUISH IT , quite quickly ? I assure you , it would absolutely not go like that with a Self Immolating EV Battery . And if you think otherwise , you simply Highlight your lack of understanding of the Chemistry involved in the two scenarios .
    7
  21. More like a Hellfire " metallic cylinder " than a Blowtorch .
    7
  22.  @justsomeguy934 . Yep . Less Toxic byproducts and CAN actually be extinguished , unlike your Batteries .
    6
  23.  @justsomeguy934 . In the Scenario in that Video link posted by you , there's a VERY good chance an EV Battery would do EXACTLY the same . You clutch at Straws in a Losing argument .
    6
  24. I was thinking the same........... V W .
    6
  25. You missed Explosive and also Environmental Vandalism
    6
  26. So ..... is this Russia suddenly ?
    5
  27.  @axeman2638  . Honestly , unfathomable , but several Billion Tonnes I would estimate.....................
    5
  28.  @Trumpisafool . Only the BRAND NEW cars " Might " be , that was a pure assumption on your part that they would be totally different . I would think there's a GOOD chance they won't be . And of course , there will still be High Mileage Units in use . You didn't THINK did you .
    5
  29. There are limits to that " Feathering " . And in VERY HIGH winds , the whole windmill is in danger of just blowing over .
    5
  30.  @dave3657  . No point . It will burn to the Waterline quicker than anyone can jump off .

  31.  @ms-jl6dl . Fun Fact : Fuel Bowser Pumps CAN be Hand Cranked if necessary .
    4
  32.  @jonoheck  . Fuel Pumps CAN be Hand Cranked if necessary .
    4
  33. Yeah and that Steam separation and catalysing method Produce CO2 . So what's the Point ?
    4
  34. @ . Engineers are SCIENTISTS . They come up with Ideas and they Solve Problems . Some ideas prove to be Wacky . Some problems prove insoluble .
    4
  35. @. You clearly have no understanding of Air/Fuel ratio , and how it relates to the Flame Temperature . HOWEVER , upon having a second look at that Other Bowser fire video THOSE are LPG pumps . And LPG vapours do settle to the Ground too . Doesn't change the fact that the Ground fumes burned off in 3 seconds . It was caused I suspect by a Gas leak IN THE VEHICLE itself . Hence the Flames from under the Bonnet/Hood . Quickly and fairly EASILY extinguished you will notice .

  36. @dezibeldani . Aircraft have levels of Redundancy that are incredible BUILT IN to circumvent the Complexity . Every system has three or FOUR back-up systems to keep the bastard in the air . Doesn't ALWAYS work either .
    3
  37.  @shaunluckham1418  . Once the Bastard is Burning, You BET it's about Lithium Reactivity with Water . Those " Compounds " you were speaking of , break down in the Extreme Heat . The Lithium , being metallic stays behind (to react with the water) and the Other chemicals ? Those are that Toxic Smoke .
    3
  38. @dmitribovski1292 . What . one of those " Golf Cart " based Citicars , with a 50 mile range ? That would have been charged using COAL Fired Power , the same as these days .
    3
  39. You got that arse about Vauxhall is actually OPEL , and OPEL is just German for Chevrolet . It's ALL the General Motors Group in other words . Oh and BTW Australia uses GM/Chev these days . Not Opel . The GM products USED TO be sold under the HOLDEN flag .
    3
  40.  @markvincent5992  Nope . Their actions at Jaguar are CERTAIN to sink the Marque . Not a lot of " Self Preservation " in that...
    2
  41.  @przemekkobel4874 . Those WERE petroleum vapours from the Tank filling . Heavier than air , so they sink to the ground . There was NO liquid fuel involved in the Fire . Clearly that car did have a problem with the Venting system , meant to prevent that scenario .
    2
  42. Not " Wildly Optimistic " . Don't you recognise " Deliberately Skewed " when you see it ?
    2
  43. Those " Climate Warrior " groups really are just Buffoons , huh . The sheer LEVEL of " Utter Bullshit " in their rhetoric is just mind-numbing .
    2
  44.  @djuro14 . So then , you BELIEVE everything you see on TV ? Can I interest you in some Riverfront Real Estate ?
    2
  45. Those " Zero Emissions " Lemons are NOT Zero Emissions at all . Not even CLOSE .
    2
  46. @ . Nope . Not 'Merican . Sydney dweller . Have you ever actually Dealt with a Vehicle repossession personally , as in , Your Vehicle ?
    2
  47. If they moved to LiFePo4 batteries a LOT of these issues would be GREATLY mitigated But of course the " Bean Counters " shout Not enough Energy Density . We'll just keep Killing people for now...............

  48.  @gerbre1  . You still carrying on like a good sort ? Sacre Bleu Garcon .
    2
  49.  @gerbre1  . Ummmmmmm Unicorns DO Fart as well you know...............

  50. Modern Environmentalism . Tearing down Forests , that eat CO2 , and are completely SELF RENEWING , in favour of building Contraptions with " Buzzword " names and a 1.5 decade service life . PURE MADNESS .
