I like the idea of electric cars, may purchase one, but they don't make sense for everyone at this point. The infrastructure isn't there, they're very expensive, the range isn't practical for some, and many of the choices are unreliable. I applaud those who can make them work, but they're not for everyone yet.

Actual (chopped up) quote from RJ:
“I think the reality of buying a combustion-powered vehicle … is sort of like building a horse barn in 1910,” he said. “Imagine buying a Chevy Suburban in 2030 … what are you going to do with that … in 10 years?”
This article is clickbait garbage.

Electric vehicles are the future of cars, but it will mean an entire extra class of people who will be cut off from car ownership.
And they're not going to like it.

ALL of the off-roaders who have gone electric that I know have a gas-powered generator they throw in the back for when we're 200km up a logging road.
