    I’m in a position to buy old vehicles only. My current vehicle is more than 20 years old, and I don’t plan to replace it soon. However, from my view, the sooner more options exist, the sooner folks like myself won’t be driving otherwise reliable, but more polluting, vehicles. I don’t even drive that much, about 1000 miles this year. So I could be driving what, 6000 or 7000 miles a year but having a smaller impact, but not until something like 2040 or even later at this rate.

    Anyway, why push back? My winter climate isn’t ideal for electric but people do it and I expect that to improve over time. We need it now, so others can have it then. My thoughts. For disclosure, I wasn’t able to read the article. I apologize if I am off point 🙂
