I quit Obama motors , I mean GM years ago, so it will not matter to me. Plus I thought we only had 9 years left, to reverse the effects of carbon emissions ? So why are they waiting another 14 years before they make the switch, will it not be too late by then to make a difference ?

Maybe AOC told them they were safe for 5 more years.

I read somewhere in the last few days that some of the billionaire people want to move the 2050 world reset date up to 2035.

Lol that’s funny! It’s pretty retarded here when you go into the cities. I thought maybe I’m getting old and starting to get grumpy. But, things are flat out stupid and it’s not hard to see. So I’m not old and grumpy yet.

You know, when I was a kid, I fell in love with Chevrolet. I loved the body styles, that bowtie. In 79, the old man bought a brand new Chevy 1/2 ton and that put me over the edge lol. They finally have it going on again, that trailblazer is smokin hot, but I have my limits and they're crossing it!

If they actually do this while some of the others don't and fossil fuels are still in play by then, they will be out of business with the price of electric vehicles. Plus, can't imagine what they can do to make them practical.

Just to be clear, that article is very misleading. The 2035 date is an aspiration for "light duty vehicles."

Go out and mine cobalt. They say it's needed for rechargeable batteries. Batteries for EV's and for storing "green" energy. I've heard the Congo is the main source for cobalt. Idaho has one mine.

Maybe Gold Rush's Parker can tear up the world to find more.

After the collapse that is coming and gov. not being able to bail them out again they'll be a bad memory long before then. High fuel price's going to be nice for all those who bought all those 'guzzlers' obama said no one wanted.

Picked two 2020 Z71's up last year, had to take one back after leaving the parking lot, had 7 readings on the transmission so had to leave it at the dealership to be worked on, it had 7 miles on it!
