    I am looking forward to lighter weight batteries with larger drive range that should be coming out in the near future but I’m also holding off on getting an electric vehicle until these issues are sorted out.

    Plus, one of the largest sources of pollution in the form of forever chemicals comes from vehicle tires so we definitely need to fucking work on that.

    I’ve always been told Charles Goodyear was a really great guy and a hard-working inventor and I feel like he would be rolling over in his grave to know that the reason why so many fish are dying out is because of his invention.

      I too am very concerned about pollution from tire particles. Although, I can’t even begin to consider electric anyway because there’s no infrastructure in my area, and I can’t get permission to install a charger.
