Yep, this is me, and yep, seriously considering getting rid of the Bolt and replacing it with something else, possibly back to gas power

Find a good mechanic and treasure them. At our old house the nearest Nissan dealer really didn't like working on a second hand vehicle from Japan that wasn't sold through any Australian dealer. But once we moved the new local dealer told me "oh yeah the young guys have just done the EV training course, they'll be happy to work on your car."





Ok, Slate is having far too much fun…

Well at least the price isn't terrible, dunno how it stacks up with a golf cart or UTV though

And this is why the US administration is doing everything it can to kill them

Exactly, they were smart enough to admit that they are too far behind with fossil fuel engine technology. So they put their bet on (cheap) battery technology and all electric cars. I notice more and more BYDs and MGs on the streets here in Europe every day.
GM literally tried to kill electric car development in the 90s. There was even a movie about the story. People liked their test venicles and wanted to buy them - GM seized all the cars and delivered them to a junk yard for recycling.

Rule of Law? What does it mean in general?

In general, this is the notion that people can agree to live within certain limitations in order to guarantee a better living place for all. And generally this works quite well when the parameters are reasonable and there is some mechanism for enforcement. The was the The International Court of Justice, which looked promising until the US decided it did not like the constraints. And the UN Security Council, which has been similarly ignored.

If the major powers had abided by the principles of these international institutions, and worked to bring about enforcement of abridgements, we would have a much better world today.
