I wonder what will happen in 2035?
Will we have a patchwork quilt map of states, which will show the liberal states are banning internal combustion engine vehicles, while more conservative states still allow same?
This could get ugly, as we are compelled/forced, whatever the right term is, to get electric cars, whether we want them or not, whether the electrical grid can handle the charging of those vehicles or not.
MD ping!
1. No government at the state level or any level has any business telling people how to live their lives, including what kind of car they can or can't drive.
2. As much as my wife and I like our EV, EV's aren't good for all situations. In fact, we have an old used ICE pickup in part for the trips we take that an EV isn't good for. And that's with us living in the south. If we lived up north (i.e. Maryland) where it's often too cold for EV's we probably wouldn't have one. And don't get me started on EV trucks not being half as good as an ICE EV when hauling cargo more than 100 miles.
Well, this can be a good thing!
How many of the Washington, DC swamp creatures live in Maryland? Hundreds of thousands.
When they aren’t able to get to work because of cold weather and no electricity then we will be free of their stupidity for those days, weeks, months............
Out of control government is out of control.
Governments grabbing power they have NO RIGHT to have
I prefer the phase out of Marxist governors......
Gas cars will become much more valuable when you can’t get a new one. Of course, getting parts might be a problem.
It is going to fail. Of its own accord.
The infrastructure will not be in place until 2150 at the earliest. It takes 40 minutes to fill an EV to get 400 miles. It takes 5 to do that now using gasoline.
Most gasoline stations have 10 to 24 pumps. EV has 1 or 2 per charging station. This plan means people will be spending 4 to 6 hours in line to get charged.
Clown governor.
Maryland doesn’t have the MW-carrying capacity to support it.
Who is going to pay for the billions of small batteries in the battery packs of these cars to recycle them or dispose of them. Each Tesla has about 7800 of the little D size cell in the battery packs and they are exchanged every 30k miles. The billions of little batteries are an ecological nightmare and expensive to dispose of. None of the Climate activists have mentioned anything about them.
I still believe that inflation, supply-chain reality, and physics will outrace and crash leftist-fascist green dreams before they are close to implementing then.
We will all suffer the consequences.
Destroying business, it’s what democrats do.
Elected and enriched by the sheep he will slaughter.
The most polluting car on the planet is the EV. But they look great in the Starbucks line where you can Virtue Grandstand.
It takes incredible amounts of money and promises of special consideration to put words to paper calling for something so stupid.
If stands, 2034 will be record year for car sales.
Thanks, Wes Mooron, for adding to CA’s market share for EVs, thus helping prompt car companies to switch entirely to EVs for the US market.
