Most of the articles I've read had a political slant to them, one way or the other.
Being in the automotive industry as long as I had been, I can attest to the negative environmental impact of fossil fuel vehicles.
As far as EV's go, I have no first-hand knowledge, only what I read about it.
I also owned a Mobil Gas station for 13 years and I can attest to how corrupt and manipulative the oil companies can be. So I'm all in for reducing our dependency on oil!
