Besides the extra cost to purchase an EV and the larger carbon footprint, the greatest drawback by far will be what to do with all those hours spent waiting while one’s car is charging. It has already happened on a small scale - stick ups, theft and vandalism. So one thing EV owners can do is learn all over again what it takes to be ‘shotgun’ on a stage coach, just like in a John Wayne western, providing some level of ‘security’ while sitting around for hours in unfamiliar surroundings - a thugs favorite target. Yee-ha !! 🤠

Perhaps the general needed to launch their new ‘9m’ logo with drones, much like Kia recently did ... 🤦♂️🤔 https://www.motortrend.com/news/new-kia-logo-design-details/

Spend 3 minutes watching this moving, but warm clip of VJ Day in Honolulu. From the despair and dark days following Pearl Harbor to the end of WWII. Who among us today could not feel the rush of exuberance and energy of these brave men and women from 1945 ... 🇺🇸

Period RACE CAR Images to Relieve some of the Stress

It certainly is not May, but today is the 2020 Indy 500 and this my salute, a big Texas hat off to A.J. Foyt !! 35 consecutive starts and 4 wins at the ‘brickyard’. -
Check out the The Historical Construction Equipment Association (hcea.net). I commend you for extending a life-line to an old work horse, well done !! As a retired member of a global construction machinery manufacturer, I can say with some credibility that a grader operator is usually the senior and most skilled machine operator in a fully equipped construction machinery yard. It takes skill and experience plus operating more controls than one has hands to operate them with.

Owners of Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Plymouth (others) automobiles share the pain, disappointment and loss as their chosen brand goes over the rainbow.
