Rolling blackouts are all over the southern US this year, chief. It's hard to say this is solely a California thing.

I’m another middle class tax payer that left and will never return. Best decision I’ve ever made, changed my life for the better in so many ways. Once a great state now turned into a crime ridden, transient camp, free hand out ash pit.

I have to admit, moving to CA was, by far, the best financial decision of my life (moved here during the housing bubble bust of 2011) and lost the job I came here for (company got sold) and ended up in a MUCH better job, but I will absolutely be leaving in 5-6 years when I retire... And I'll never look back...

Unless... They do figure out a way to make electricity out of unicorn farts. Now we are talking!

As for Canada, I would like to see how everything will work in the -30 C/-20 F weather we have around the interior provinces.
Oh they do and they're trying everything they can to make it happen sooner rather than later. Seems like everybody is on board worldwide. The European Union just announced today that they too plan to phase out ice cars by 2035.

Yep, and as we approach that date watch how permits for gas stations start to be denied.

Yep now you can't even have a tune on your car in California. They apparently start testing next week which sucks for people with modded cars.

Well, they say that, but whether or not it's possible or if people are cool with it remain to be seen.

The whole generation issue aside, distribution will also generate a pretty big bill that someone has to pay for.

Battery tech has been relatively stagnant, too. Solid-state batteries have been promised over and over and yet, no one knows when they are really deliverable in a consumer-friendly manner.

If you never track the car, it's plenty fast, really.

On a track is where I feel like I could use some more, maybe.

No, I don’t think a 455hp car is fast not at all. It’s really too slow for the streets. I mean 3.9 0-60…..it takes FOREVER!! LOL.

I commuted for 10yrs on my cbr1100xx which was a low 10 sec 1/4 mi bike.
Yet somehow my SS still feels fast. How is that?

But you seem like the kind of a guy that would happily void his warranty bc you’re stupid. You don’t have to look past your sad attempts to construct sentences. You probably financed your SS for 96 months and have a net worth of $4.

Some of us do this as a hobby so maybe you shouldn't be such a dickhead and get you a hobby too. As you can see he actually tracks his car so maybe he needs the extra power. You seem to really hate modded cars maybe you should move to a platform that people don't really mod like maybe a Geo Metro or a Pontiac Aztec that way you have a car that matches your personality.

You should re-enroll in 3rd grade. You can learn how to use a period. It's what separates sentences.

The amount I own on the camaro is identical to your IQ: zero.
