    Good for you. I drive straight there with 5 minute stops. That shit will add hours for my traveling. Stop telling other people is not a problem because it is for many people. It’s absurd I have to day this crap.

    I don’t need fuel economy for my towing needs. I need fuel economy for daycare.

      I think you just agreed with me, but it’s honestly hard to tell. EV makes sense for everyday usage for a lot of Americans. It does not make sense for every American. Especially those that regularly tow, routinely driving 200+ miles a day or may not have access to a low cost charger.

      For those folks especially towers, hydrogen is likely the only viable green option. Batteries are just too heavy for long haul commercial trips and eat up payload that could otherwise be used to ship goods. Power density for demanding applications is paramount.
