But how much did your EV cost you? And how many miles could uou cover in your gas car for that price? You also need to recall that UK and US car markets are very different. We've had scrappage schemes for years, removing older cars from the market. And Covid stopped 2 years of new car sales.

I'm sure it is. But while I accept they are dirt cheap to run, even a second-hand one costs at least twice as much as my current car. It's the initial outlay that is prohibitive. That, plus I need a car big enough to get bikes in, and nothing low due to arthritis. That limits the options a lot.

The issue is not the quantity, but the timing and source. Trumb needs cheap diesel before the mid-terms. Once they're over, he'll go back to not giving a sh*t about diesel prices, petrol prices, heating prices, electricity prices, grocery prices, or people. He could have got it from Canada, though

2 needs. Turkey borders Iran, where Trump has been known to bomb schools. Given the level of competence on display, it's quite possible that they would hit one in Turkey sooner or later. School shootings are common in USA, the most likely market for this product.
