Lots of Oil and gas produced in Wyoming also (Laramie Goshen and Platte counties) and some others. We very much need these resources for some years to come.

If they can build the iPhone for Apple maybe they could build an EV for Apple.

Good idea. It would be pretentious, over priced and do things different than all the other cars just to be special

Cults are something that I find interesting. The ICE vs EV cults can get down right entertaining. Both have favorite fact attachments to spin over and over.

After viewing that tube I need to sell my ICE before it has no value.

Good point but you should have some time.

I have noticed Nissan is pushing 84 month loans. They actually did get a loan from Japan for like $2 billion dollars to sell their cars on subprime loans.

Three or four years down the road when the EV version is as cheap or cheaper than the gas version the owners will still be upside down in the loan. Dealers will not want their gas used cars to put on their lot because their sales of EVS will be increasing and they will be a glut of gas cars four or five years down the road. If a person will be able to afford the gas there'll be some really cheap car deals on the marketplace especially from the rental car places I expect.

I wonder when the car rental companies will start to transition their fleet to more EVs than ICE,

Good point but you should have some time.

In the U.S. there are 275 million ICE vehicles on the road.
Tesla will soon be producing a million EVs a year.
In 15 years the majority of vehicles produced by other manufactures will be EV, but
In what year will the majority of the vehicles on the road be EV?

I'm thinking 25 years (2046) at the earliest. Any other predictions with numbers?

Kind of optimistic.
