The new standards are part of a broad push to get more Americans into electric vehicles, and reduce the environmental cost of driving.

    I am just going to point out that my in-laws (who live in the developing world) run their rental properties, farm, and general store with two motorcycles and a tractor. That tractor btw I want to shot with a gun and put it out of its misery since I am pretty sure it’s diesal ass should have died in the 1980s. I am pretty confident that if two people in their mid-60s can do it the vast vast vast majority of people don’t need an oversized pickup.

    Also I have been involved with construction since my uni days and just about every contractor I have dealt with has a van.
