    I sometimes wonder how today’s media is going to be seen in 10-20 years, when EVs are much faster and cheaper than gas cars so they’ve completely taken over.

    “Mommy, why do the cars on TV all make fart sounds?”

      Electric cars are an attempt to save the automotive industry, not the planet. Demand public mass transportation and walkable cities instead.

      Electric cars will still be making fart sounds in 10-20 years. They already sell cars that generate artificial engine noise and play it through speakers.

        And yet the electric Mustang is totally silent. I’m still not sure how to feel about that, or the fact that someone decided that a muscle car should have an electric version

        There’s also an EV Corvette…
