Meanwhile, China is bringing a new nuclear power plant online every few months. Oh, and they control 100% of the world's supply of spherical graphite, 51% of lithium, and 62% of cobalt, which are required to make EV batteries.

Yeah, it will take a while. Wouldn't plan for that to be a daily event, and wouldn't need a full charge, just enough to run local errands and get to/from work. Once chargers are more widespread and we can charge at work and stores, need even less of a charge at home, maybe none at all during blackouts.

We all know Biden is not playing with a full deck so if he ran over somebody it wouldn't be a surprise.

just watched the reveal. it looks awesome with the rear light bar on the tailgate, the front light bar is a little much (be cool if you could turn the center drl plank off like an led light bar people do for aftermarket). the 12" cluster and 15" screen looks cool. But so goofy seeing them putting luggage under the hood. 😂. They said they're all gonna be 4x4 I think is what I heard the lady say.
