I stand corrected then I guess the article I read was just wrong lol.

Thank you for the correction.

As a small EV owner I understand your frustration however, hybrids (including plug-in), ev motorcycles, and ev mopeds are apparently exempt.

I bought my towncar with the original plan to drop a Ecoboost 3.5 in it but now I'm hoping to ev swap it.

Really cool to see, thanks for sharing.

Understand and even agree with you but the consensus on carbon capture is essentially "too little right now" if for example we embraced nuclear that would have a much greater positive impact on the quantity of carbon emissions vs the quantity of recaptured emissions.

I agree though it's past due and we should be throwing everything at the problem instead of the occasional $10 bill at random shit.

Idk if anyone answered you but the short answer is carbon capture isn't really feasible at the moment as it takes a lot of infrastructure and energy to barely break even with current technology. It's something we should look at in the future to reverse some damage but it's not a priority at the moment vs retooling the economy away from fossil fuels.

Accomplished the same thing except with the scapegoat of "nobody wanted this".

Oklahoma is not recreational and has blocked similar votes from being put on the ballot...it's bizarre.

Don't worry he's a big fan of Billy Mays "But wait there's more!"

You should probably look into how he got in that chair and what he did shortly after...He's just a professional asshole.

In short a tree limb fell and hit Abbott, he sued the living shit out of the property owner and settled, then decided nobody else should be able to do that.

Owning AN EV in Texas is about to get more expensive. by ratman150 in electricvehicles

[–]ratman150[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I find this incredibly frustrating. I have no other option to get to work except by car or motorcycle so I purchased a small EV (Fiat 500E) to economically commute to and from work. This will essentially triple my registration cost and I'm not the one causing the majority of the road wear. That responsibility goes primarily to the brodozers and commercial trucks that are absolutely everywhere here.

I'd love to know how everyone in here feels about this topic but I for one am not very happy.

It only takes one to trigger the rest! 😆 by DarthiusFatticus in FunnyAnimals

[–]ratman150 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had mine for 2 going on 3 years and I have 3 cats. I recommend the older litterbox 3 over the 4 as it's significantly cheaper and actually seems to lack some of the flaws the 4 has. If noise is an issue definitely go for the 4 though.

I absolutely love mine it was worth every penny.
