Nice red herring.
Do you have any more? Maybe argue that an MMA fighter would never hit you because you would sue them?

Go right ahead and throw stones in the glass house. Look like the fool. Be proud of your ignorance.
There are tens of millions just like you.

And you're special...one of a kind

2 hours every 130 miles? Yeah, you are right, I won't be bothered with that. Let's waste vacation time charging a car, in the sun, or rain, or snow. That's 13 hours of vacation time wasted 26 hours over all charging a car when I could just drive a clean burning diesel.

If you had to charge the Electric truck 6.5 times @ $25 each time that is $162.5. ONE WAY. Plus the waiting. A 2022 6.7L has a 34 gallon tank... call it $380. ONE WAY. Less waiting. So you can save $217 going electric but you can add 26 hours of waiting to your trip.

From what I've read, ~400 miles per charge, cut that in half for heavy towing. Of course you do have the option of camping closer. If you plan thoughtfully, then charging stops can be made to coincide with meals or other stops. And there is always the option to camp lighter. Personally, I've never really understood the concept of "roughing it" by towing along a portable home along.

Idiots like this MTG AKA Ms. Jewish Space Laser started the forest fires,lol. And Boebart want this to happen. . Yeah SORRY NOT GONNA HAPPEN! Founding Fathers were not Christian. This isn't a Christian Nation nor will it EVER BE! It is a Nation of many Religions, Creeds, Races, Beliefs and People with different opinions which all of it is a good thing to have in a Nation.

These two fools are dangers to this country from the right side of the aisle.

Oh and comments like this from Boebart,lol. Good luck with this you moron. Yeah sorry but no.

"Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), another conservative firebrand, advocated for abolishing that clause last month, saying “the church is supposed to direct the government” and that she’s “tired of this separation of church and state junk.”

Churches have NO PLACE in Government PERIOD! Yet every year they get more and more bold with how they are interacting in politics. They gave up those rights when they agreed to not be taxed all those many decades ago. If they want to engage then Tax them!

And yep the left is full of idiots as well. Both sides have crazies like this in their parties.

Glamping, lol. I do my best to never call it “camping” when I use the motorhome.

But when people want to take full responsibility for an unwanted pregnancy by getting an abortion, you don’t want them to.
Which is it? Be responsible and handle it, or let the church and government decide what one can do?

Which is an odd position for person who is always on the look out for fascism to take.

Like religion: He will pick and choose the rules that work best for his narrative, and disregard the rest.

If it’s not my business, then why do abortion clinics get taxpayer funding?

If you speaking about Planned Parenthood specifically, they offer bunch of services, so the money they receive covers the cost of these services - ie contraception, STD treatment, family planning and of course abortion. I don't know if the fact they receive federal dollars makes your business per se. You seem to be a big fan privacy, so I would hope on these sensitive matters that you would respect their privacy even if you're pro-life.

Why do pacifists have to pay for war?
Why is the church exempt from paying taxes?
Why does tax money pay for Viagra?
Why fight abortion, then ignore the ***** when it becomes a baby?

Why not be consistent in a belief structure?

Our grid isn't being upgraded like you think...you might see a new power lpole outside your house but you if think the grid is anywhere capable of handling widespread ev adoption...you really need to read on it...your power savings aren't the basis for consumption rate as ev numbers increase...

Luckily it won't be an issue because the automotive and battery industries aren't capable of providing enough ev's for "widespread adoption."

So the bike ride wasn't a photo op?...he just got up that morning and decided to go for a ride...

Everything the POTUS does in public is a photo op.

IMHO you're looking in the wrong place for consistency. Ultimately, behind every double standard is a greater single standard. For example, we can unequivocally that if it were Biden accusing Trump of stealing an election, then roughly 40% of the country would suddenly have much higher standards for qualifies as proof the election was stolen.

That's not factoring in the extended "refueling" time the ev semi would have...that's less time per day the truck is moving...so the overall expense of shipping goes up...

Yes, it is factored in.

Truckers are only allowed to drive so many hours per day. And the average semi only does about 45,000 miles a year. Thats173 miles a day, assuming 5-day workweek.

The Tesla will do 300-500 miles per charge, so charging can happen while the truck would not be in use anyway.
“You are allowed 14 consecutive hours in which to drive up to 11 hours after being off duty for 10 or more consecutive hours.”

Should the people be able to not pay taxes to Planned Parenthood?

How so??? Trucks can refueled while unloading. Drivers are limited in how many hours they can drive and of course stop at truck stops for meals, showers, bathroom breaks, etc.

If so, then they should be able to refuse taxes for the military, or road repair, or fire departments. Schools. EMT. Post office. Business subsidies. Farm subsidies. Churches.
A ‘la carte taxation.

That would be consistent, yes?
