Look at the bright side. The purchase of all those vehicles (600K+) will be a huge boost to the economy.
Of course you and I will be paying for them at a probably inflated price.

Elections do have consequences ! Side Note: Would love to see a bill pass for the improvement of air ports, roads, bridges, parks, buildings, etc. Seems that money could be spent more wisely. Oh yea. Keep the military strong!

I would suspect it means that as vehicles are replaced when they routinely are rather than just replacing them without regard to their age or condition.

I guarantee this will somehow put money in Sleepy Joe's pockets. Never seen such a blatant liar and crook in my life.

The "Vehicle Miles Traveled Tax" is coming..... They can't pay for the charging stations so they will tax 90% of the population that does NOT drive an electric vehicle???
Listen, I am all for the advancement of this technology and letting the market forces decide the fate....Not shoving this down my throat via a "Vehicle miles traveled tax" to pay for the initiative ...this one ticks me off.

Just a sign of times to come. Fossil fuels will eventually be a minor player in the transportation industry. Electric trucks produced by Volvo and Freightliner have been on the road since 2018 mainly for regional and local use. I would expect FedEX, UPS, and Amazon to begin changing their fleet in the not too far future.

I've got $100 that says the company selling the electrics will be Chinese or at least owned and or a major stockholder. I would also bet that Communist Joe has those stocks in his portfolio.
