I have a friend with a model 3 (I think thats what its called). He just took an extended vacation travelling about 3 weeks on the road. He was very happy with the overall experience. Said the biggest issue was thinking ahead about where to stop for a charge and that it took awhile when doing so.

At the end of the day you'll never be able to get a car charged in the same amount of time you can fill a gas tank. The EV is an answer to a question few people are asking.

Musk has already determined that a wholesale switchover is absolutely impossible due to the aged electric infrastructure. Trillions of dollars to upgrade it, and 30 years of time. I'll be dead and buried before it happens, if it happens. Color me gasoline.

The best thing for our atmoshere is quit cutting down trees, and plant more. Plant life needs CO2 to exist so why aren't we planting more trees?

How Many Trees Are Planted Every Year? What Types and How Many Should You Plant?

According to compiled statistics, including the United Nations Environmental Program, approximately 1.9 billion trees are planted yearly.1

This statistic also estimates that close to 158 million trees around the planet are replanted every month. And out of the 158 million trees, 5 million are replanted each day, and approximately 7 thousand are planted every minute.1

The world plans to plant at least 1 trillion trees by 2030.
