We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

Meanwhile, my Hybrid Maverick is backordered so long, they're asking people to switch to the gas only engine. But hey, this stuff doesn't sell.

Here's an idea, instead of only selling $80k+ EVs, sell some $25k ones.

It doesn’t need to be a common occurrence. It is the second most expensive item you are likely to own. It shouldn’t have huge limitations.

Could you imagine something like a hurricane evacuation if everyone owned only electric cars?

Hopefully we will see a lot of households owning at least one as their round town daily driver, but I doubt we’ll ever get past 50% take up with current tech.
