Personally, I will be so DISAPPOINTED if all the TARDLINGS on this forum don’t have Electric tow vehicles by 2025 .......I mean if you TALK the talk, you should WALK the walk .....

My disability scooter is electric.. Does that ease the disappointment?

I can't wait to see/hear all of the excuses for lithium toxicity. It is going to make the internal-combustion engine look really clean.

GM announced yesterday, they will be all electric by 2035.

Electric vehicles are here to stay, whether we like them or not. Many of us are 65+, so our active life is on the countdown. That being said, I hope we all can have an active lifestyle for as long as possible.

My biggest concerns about electric vehicles are durability and distance between charges. Gas or diesel vehicles last well over 150,000 miles with very little maintenance involved. Plus we can go over 400 miles between fill ups in the average vehicle, towing not necessarily included, some many more (cars).

By 2035 I will be 85, so probably not driving much at that point.

My question is 2 parts - How is the durability of an electric vehicle and what is the farthest you can go between charging??????
