So if it takes a special "charger", how much is it going to cost to have one of those chargers at your home?

I'd guess $1K + another $1K for an electrician to install it.

Most of our electricity still comes from coal-burning power plants, right?  What are we gaining here?  I'm all about reducing emissions, sustainability, and saving the earth, but we're trading one fossil fuel for another.  

We could do that better ways too but there is a lot of money in coal, so it's going to take a while.

And if everyone goes electric, where will they come up with the annual fuel tax revenues? I guarantee they will get the revenue somehow

Also, imagine we go all electric and someone hacks into the power grid and shuts the whole city down??? Better get out your bicycle 🚴😂

The hacks a pretty scary. I sure hope we're hacking back, or capable of it at a moment's notice.

Start investing in companies who make the best gas powered generators 😂🤣

You should be able to get a $7,500 tax credit for the Rivian, and another for the charger install. To bad it looks like refrigerator on wheels. Think I'll stick with my F250 until gas gets to $6 a gallon like it is in Europe & California. Chargers were about $2k when we were doing allot of EV credits for client's a couple years ago.
