Onerous electric vehicle mandates have threatened to crash not only the economy, but our electric grid. Joe Biden’s handlers want X% of all vehicles to be electric by X year, which is always an impossibly few years in the future. Gavin Newsom wants…let’s not go there. Continual exposure to that much crazy is debilitating.

Until recently, American auto manufacturers were politically attuned to the Mummified Meat Puppet Administration’s EV/Climate Crisis goals, but even when one is saving the planet through government mandates and deficit spending, reality inevitably catches up. Reality in the form of 4000 dealers writing President Biden to tell him they can’t sell or give away the EVs infesting their lots, so perhaps it would be a good idea to please reign in those mandates?
Another bit of reality is the current average EV sells for $67,000 dollars. When all but a handful of Americans can’t afford an EV even if they want one—and most don’t—EVs aren’t going to sell, which is the dealer’s polite point.
