@krazytroutcatcher Some of you are partying like it is 1999 still, or some of you think that Smart Phones are new technology, hah.
EVs are here if you haven't noticed.
The thing about batteries? They are getting cheaper, safer, charge faster, getting lighter, and holding more power. Then compared to fuel cells they will give more power, and have lower volumetric density then hydrogen.
Oh EVs are safer in crashes, and so much more reliable than the ICE. Less maintence too.
Sure they burn worse, but they also catch fire less. Burning is burning.
ICE is dead in the water. You'll need more and more complicated crap to get any miniscule improvement.
We have solid state batteries coming out which are a leap toward. Then lithium Air chemistry is the future, and will have the potential to be ten to fifty times better than current batteries as I write this.
Oh with pure EVs? If you had the money you can charge off the grid at your home. No need to worry about gas stations running out of gas every time some disaster might happen. Or gas prices going up daily. There are people with solar trailers who will go camping, hunting, and fishing and charge their vehicle in the sun while they fish all day.
Also if you guys think mining and battery companies are somehow more evil then oil and hydrogen companies? Well you're smoking some of that good stuff, because they are ALL greedy and ALL want all of your money.
By the way lithium is everywhere. Mining it is also getting easier and less of a hazard. There are companies working on extracting it from sea water.
But hey don't buy an EV. Personally I like them because they blow ICE out of the water. I dont need to drive 10 hours straight daily without breaks like apparently you guys do.
Will be blowing by you guys in your ICE soon.
