Knowing JC, he'll buy a whole raft of replacement cells and rebuild the battery himself...

He's got access to all the tech stuff to diagnose it down to the gnat's azz...

By going electric car. This is the choices people will have in a few years after buying the car. Most people can't afford new. So it's going to be rebuilt or junkyard. I see a environmental problem coming. What to do with the cars and batteries being thrown away. You can scrap the car, but the battery is going to be an issue. I can hear the tree huggers screaming now.

We are trading one problem for another. Reduce using fossil fuels in your car so that you can use more fossil fuels to charge your vehicle. Recycling and reusing has enormous challenges. Which doesn't mean it's not doable, it just means electric cars aren't a problem free replacement.

It's bringing it's own set of problems that most haven't thought of.

You are probably right and the only reason I bring it up at all is because I want him to keep it going. I guess it’s for selfish reasons, but that car has some sentimental meanings to me. I probably shouldn’t even share this, but what the heck, we are all friends on here... well... I had sex in that car about three times and it just stirs up a lot of memories when I see him with that car....

Keep it going JC, keep it going...
