Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I mean, are we talking the next 10 years? 50? 150?

ICE vehicles really can't just go away unless underdeveloped or developing nations have a way to also own what's next.

I agree that it will eventually get there, and that we really should be moving away from ICE vehicles, but we need to be realistic here. It's hard for even people living in North America or Europe to afford an EV... or even food and rent, for that matter.
