I know, I know... "details" , "details""details""details"!
And as we all know..."The devil is in the details"
But realities are that American roads will be the affected... when "the rubber meets the road"!
"A battery for an electric truck can be up to 16,000 pounds,

Total EVs of 10,900,000 by 2030 at weight added per EV of 1,000 lbs or 5,450,000 tons.
Details:
6,000 products are made from fossil fuels, like asphalt --
94% of roads in America use asphalt which uses 1.4 Billion barrels of oil per year,
The tires you drive on are every year made from 300 million barrels of oil .

So with the COST of oil going up due to less use and less competition due to less use,
the cost to make asphalt and tires along with the other 6,000 products will go up all because this dummy said:
I guarantee We Are Going To Get Rid of Fossil Fuels” September 06, 2019,
In summary for those of you with less than the average American's attention span of 8.5 seconds.

The effort to destroy fossil fuels replacing with EVs has a great amount of cost, far more than any "CO2" savings!
"The devil is in the details"... i.e.
1) Cost of replacing roads, parking garages, etc. due to additional weight of EV batteries... oh small detail... right.. added cost!
2) Cost of tires to replace additional damage done to additional weight.
3) Cost of tires due to higher cost for petroleum.
4) And the yet to be measured and discussed:
A) Biden guarantees to rid the electric generation of 60% from "fossil fuels".
B) WHAT is the ADDITIONAL cost Americans will pay directly and indirectly..i.e. businesses passing on their utility cost increases?
NONE of the above have been addressed. OH wait..this is the Biden solution!
64% of Americans live within 2 miles of a public electric vehicle charging station,

DO these dummies understand this simple problem?
Where do the chargers get the electricity if Biden guarantees to destroy 60% of electric generating plants in the USA?

Electrifying trucking will mean sacrificing critical weight for heavy batteries, eating into already-slim margins
The future of long-haul trucking lies in electrification, but batteries are so heavy right now that they could turn off many would-be adopters.
