We're all getting older
Vehicles will all be hybrid/electric within one 10 yr cycle.
Goodbye cruel world!
That electric thing won't last long. There isn't enough lithium reserves on the planet to support where the auto industry is being pushed. Not even close. I like the idea of electric hybrids (maybe even for hot rod stuff). But unless someone comes up with new batter technology it will be short lived. I just looked this up the other day. If tomorrow every new car built in the world was electric/hybrid we would run out of lithium in 13yrs. Of course the change over won't instantaneous, but it won't take long to exhaust (pun intended) supplies.
Not to mention the HORRIBLE environmental effects of lithium production/disposal.
