The entire car industry is in trouble according to utube channels I watch frequently concerning auction prices and dealer lots being full.

It is sad that you manipulate the scenario, by pretending that the mileage per gallon averages being imposed and announced are not forces that make the manufacturers of ICE cars have to include EVs in their lineups to bring the averages down. These mandates impact then the multi year planning that manufacturers always have to do for models and engines. And this is happening around the world. Look at it this way when car tech took over for horse and carriages, it did so on it's own merits of cost and convenience, they did not require the horses be hobbled to use just 3 legs ! We can only hope common sense will prevail at the vote polls, sadly some gullible manipulators will still vote for present incumbents in our two countries and abroad.
Petroleum reserves are running out. Petroleum prices are increasing. Cases of COPD are increasing. Car manufactures can make and sell ICE vehicles. They can’t make ICE’s vehicle’s using 50’s technology.
I just put $50.55 dollars of $3.19 regular in my truck. If it was a diesel at $4.00 a gallon it would have been many dollars more. I own two trucks and a car. I keep looking for free gas but there does not seem to be any in my area like in other people’s.
