If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

The advantages of ev become obvious once you adjust to the minor changes. Not having to smell your car. Significantly reduced noise on the road. Far more power when you put the pedal down. It's a bit of a laugh when I hop into a price/ size equivalent ice vehicle and it feels like I'm running a wind up McDonald's toy. I've had to buy tires, refill wiper fluid, blades. No oil changes. no belts. No oil changes. No spark plugs. The thing isn't trying to shake itself apart just by operating. I never have to stop for gas. Next vehicle will be an EV for certain. Going back to an ice would be a major step backwards.
