EV school buses are the pits. Much worse than EV automobiles of any kind. All I ever read is how defective and crappy EV school buses are. The EV school buses manufacturers are Democrat party connected dudes, are getting Federale tax payers dollars.
They all say — Thanks Joe Biden!

There will never be a honest election with mail-in ballots, election month, Dominion machines, no picture id required, and such.

Nixon was a RINO.
The hated Nixon until they realized later that Nixon, like Bush, was one of them.

...Lion Electric Co. is paying $15,000 for the district’s transportation department to rent two diesel school buses.And Lion Electric is probably receiving tens of millions of federal taxpayer money.

In April 2021, Joe Biden took a virtual tour of a Proterra facility, using it to promote his infrastructure plan, which included approximately $6.5 billion in grants, according to the Wall Street Journal, to help replace diesel-powered school and transit buses with electric vehicles. Despite all the issues with Proterra, the Biden administration charged forward with its electric school bus program, announcing in January $1 billion to 67 applicants. Proterra filed for bankruptcy in November 2023. They took the money and ran. Volvo is slated to purchase their production facilities.

Yes, you’re right. Modern liberals (“progressives”) are ruthless in pursuit of their goals. Most conservative leaders are, unfortunately, not like that. They might know what the correct solution is.
But they are not ruthless. It’s compromise, compromise, and compromise some more.

Perhaps a full copy (comments included)of every FR story on these EV buses should be sent out to every school districtrict in the country. So far, I have not heard of any school districts in my part of the country buying these things, but if I do, I will try to do due diligence to let them be aware of what they may be getting into. It just might save the taxpayers a lot of money.

The “conservatives” across the West might oppose Leftist agendas, or at least campaign against them.
But when they get into power, they never reverse anything.
Supposedly “conservative” parties have won plenty of election victories in the last, say, 50 years, but none of the big Leftist programs were ever ended.
The political systems of the West are like a ratchet, or a diode or a sprag: they only turns one way; left.
