        Awesome! Let’s discuss the amount of water, heavy metals and rare earth minerals in each car. Then let’s discuss how we dispose of the waste. This technology is important, but not without it’s own issues.

        Of course. There’s less to maintain for starters in an electric car.

        Less to maintain. Maybe we can finally work on our own cars again.

        Need to stop providing their fuel from coal and oil power plants and making believe the electric is clean

        Because the fossil fuels are producing the electricity to charge the cars. So it really isn't any cleaner. I could say I'm clean energy because I use light bulbs and electric appliances, but that's not true

        And even where that is true the EV is still more efficient than an ICE

        What I've ready is they are on par where coal is power plant fuel. Now we have the problem of total battery life-and its cost and disposal-travel distance. efficiency in winter and really hot climates. It'll be nice when all those are fixed & pulls a horse trailer 600 miles

        Both the EPA and DoD have already done the maths. EVs beat ICEs everywhere in the country--regardless of how the kW are generated. /1
