    Hah, I agree with you that /logically/ EVs and Hybrids are just basically great and often superior options at this point…

    …but i feel like you do not know many hillbillies and rednecks.

    Logic is not exactly their forte.

    People make their conspicuous consumption habits /into/ their personalities, and … well basically I can easily imagine that if a gun toting, coal rolling truck owner with the biiiiggest truck nuts you have ever seen… i can easily see that if he crashed or had to sell his truck and drive his battered wife’s honda civic to work, he could actually become seriously depressed.

    Maybe I have just known a lot of really shitty people in my life, I dunno.
