Rebates and tax credits are now over 20,000, and they aren't selling.

Once again, the pesky people have spoken. It's getting old.

We must not allow the walmart masses to upend solutions carefully crafted by the best and brightest technocrats.

The NWO can't get here soon enough if you ask me.

Just like they balked at taking the jab to protect grandma, now they won't turn loose of their gas guzzlers.

I CANT WAIT for the new immigrants to man our military. One day boy, their going to blow that F150 right out from under you with an rpg.

What are you talking about? Plenty of faux conservatives around here took the jab. That's a terrible comparison. And they'd buy an electric truck too if they saw someone like Alan Jackson or Keith Urban driving one. They are just as impressionable as the liberals with Taylor Swift, rap artists, etc. Don't kid yourself.

So few of you know what it means to be a true conservative. It means a strict interpretation of the Constitution and a big F YOU to ~95%of government.

I'd be all over that Hummer EV if it had a 6.2 LS in it.

And the Silverado EV as well. It's essentially a battery powered Avalanche and I loved my Avalanche.

GM is moving towards hybrids now.

Mary Barra is a moron for going all in on EVs like she did.

The best thing about EVs is how it turns a 40-50k good into a smartphone. Technology gets obsoleted immediately. Battery degradation takes away range and it is basically like buying a new car to replace.

The only way to own an EV is to not. You should lease these things and trade in for a new one every 3 years.

Hybrids and Plug-In Hybrids are the only practical way forward to reduce emissions in a meaningful way that our country’s infrastructure can support, meets the range needs traveling this large country, and consumers can actually afford.

EVs should stick in the luxury strata for the foreseeable future where the lease and replace type of consumers are more prevalent.

Yet, even with all the incentives they seemingly won’t follow sad simple economic theory and dump the prices… the government can only do so much..
With limited consumers, only the best are selling all the vehicles while to many clunky traditional electric vehicles languish

The future where every Prius weighs as much as a truck but we still can’t manage to maintain our roadways that are now getting worn down even faster.

It can make a difference in more urban environments especially during the summer when the air can become rather unhealthy. Not everything is something that you have to deny is real because you’ve been propagandized to repel against it.

Hybrids are stupid.

I have a police model explorer that’s a hybrid as a demo car and it is almost never in electric mode. Only when stopped for a period and in the parking lot. Never while the accelerator is engaged.

Yeah but I get the pressure she was under.....Tesal and other EV companies are getting crazy valuations they don't deserve while GM's stock is stuck in the mud.....

This isn’t true. Plug in hybrids usually get 30 or so electric miles, which is enough for errands and short commutes.
