They also need to do something about the charging stations..... Would you want to sit in line behind 10+ others to get to an electricity pump.?

I like the chevy volt. It is a good looking little car.

Well toyota is working on a car that has tiny solar cells embedded in the paint that always keep the car charged so it won't need charging stations so I'm sure they'll all be able to go with something like that. Critics are still saying that it does more polluting and damage to the environment to make one electric car than that car saves on emissions it's whole life but I don't know if that's true.

It is true!!

Spend over a dollar extra just to save a dime. Makes no sense to me. I will keep my dollar.

Look at it this way. The parts for the emmisions on the big truck. Raised the prices of them 10k.

All those parts had to be made. Probably in Mexico & China. Then shipped here. Made in manufacturing plants that have no pollution regulations by slave labor. All the energy expended to make these parts, by the time they are shipped & being used by us, they put more pollution and used more energy than they will ever save.

Fact also....

The new emmisions "cleaner trucks" get an avrg. Of 5 mpg. I avrg. Over 6 with this truck. And my old KW pulled down almost 8 mpg.

So in the long run the cleaner trucks cost more to buy, run, and maintain. It has put many owner operators in bankruptcy due to the downtime and repair prone flawed emissions systems.

It will never make sense to me to to reroute exhaust gasses back into an engine. EGR. (Exhaust gas recirculation) destroys engines. That is a proven fact.

I have an altimeter chip in this truck that fools it into thinking it is over 5000 feet above sea level. Which stops the waste gate from opening and recirculating the exhaust.

Here is an emmision system for a human......

Holy smokes sir krazzytrukker! that's amazing and is totally logical. Way too logical for liberals to comprehend! wow. Well, electric would solve the emmissions problem with the trucks at least. It rubs me the wrong way that we are one of the cleanest countries and highly regulate polution while China and India polute the whole world and no one says anything!

You pretty much nailed it. Back 10 yrs or so they did a study and China was Booming. Putting out like 80% of the worlds pollution.... Who knows what it is now...?

Our News Media puts out most of the propaganda garbage.

hahaha! I heard that their ratings were so terrible that if they weren't there just to be a platform for the socialist they would collapse. If they had to earn their ratings in other words.

I have always been interested on electric. Trains are just a giant generators with an electric motor.

We even considered a Chevy Volt for @pooky-jax when they first came out 10 yrs or so back....
