EV's are fine. However they still are bad for the environment with all the smug that EV owners spread around.

Yes we need more nuke power but we don't need old-school gigantic plants. We need smaller systems like this: https://www.rolls-royce.com/innovation/small-modular-reactors.aspx

Quoted from jeffro01:

Now to your point about gas taxes, that's a serious issue that isn't remotely close to being resolved.

Here's an idea: Tire Tax

Affects anything that rolls on the road. From big rigs to golf carts. Everyone would pay for their share of wear and tear of the communal road space.

I gotta say the only thing I really actually HATE about EVs or even just new cars is:

WHY ARE THEY PUTTING FLAT PANEL SCREEN BASED CONTROLS WHERE I NEED TACTILE CONTROLS THAT I DONT HAVE TO LOOK AT?!?!

It's awful. Literally awful. No I don't want to have games on a massive 18" screen playing while I'm driving.

No I don't want to have to tilt my head each time to change the temperature or a song.

Get this fucking horrendously disgusting and distracting TECH-BRO-TRUCK-TESTICLES shit off my multi-thousand pound death machine.

I have to keep me and my family and my passengers safe and it's just a big giant WHY PAD in my field of view!

This guy had some bad luck with his Tesla:

Usually doesn’t take 3 days to tow an ICE vehicle.
