Very much so. That is one of the reasons they stress recycling them. They are toxic to make and toxic to dump in landfills. But hey, we're saving the earth here.

Don't forget the $5,000 to $8,000 cost to replace the batteries in the Electric Car , once the Batteries wear out and can't be recharged.

A mere pittance when the government is paying for it with your money.

But that cost will be offset by the growth in GDP and the people working, hahaha.

Bet the range on the enormous weight of that thing with batteries would be limited to within 1 mile of Pennsylvania ave.

Secret Service would have to push it back home.....lol



air force one could go electric , that should work great!

I see a lot of closed minds here. Electric is the future, wether you like it or not. Making the federal fleet electric is a good step toward pushing through the infrastructure, as well as giving engineers and scientist more incentive to innovate. Just because in your tiny little world view you can’t imagine it being possible, doesn’t mean we can’t make it possible. I suppose all of you who are finding fault with electric vehicles all have electrical engineering doctorates? Chemistry doctorates? You’ve designed, manufactured, and tested all of the different types of electric charging stations, batteries, and power generators like solar, wind, water, etc?

There are people who have studied this stuff intensely for decades whose full time job is to make it viable. It becomes more and more viable every year. Im 100% pro green power, having been an oilfield worker for a decade I would really like to see us advance past our dependency on fossil fuels. We will never get completely away from fossil fuels, but the less we can use the better.

You all gotta stop being afraid of change and embrace it, cause it’s comin wether you want it or not. You can grow with the world or die mad about it and the world will grow without you.

I'm all for EV's as long as they work as good as the combustion engine in the cold country and is priced commensurately
