Awesome, more taxes for the low and middle class, while their tax money doesn't actually fix the roads most of the time. And people wonder why millennials are still living with their parents. Surviving is getting more and more expensive while wages remain stagnant. This EV 'revolution' is gonna make transportation more expensive than it needs to be in order to fund general infrastructure of the country and infrastructure for EV's.
And like always, these taxes kill the middle class more than anyone else. And rich people are either not affected or find loopholes around taxes. So, everyone needs to adapt to pay more to get less, except rich people.

Truck is cool looking, but useless as far as true truck duties - use mine for towing and hauling. Both of which ruin EV range, and I'm rural, so it really doesn't work for me.

Agree with you, pure EV just won't meet many of peoples needs for a time to come. Especially for trucks. I am curious to see how automakers will work that out. Ford is saying the F150 electric will have a big towing capacity but that says nothing about the range. And I wonder how many motors and how big the batteries will be in those things. Won't be good for the environment that's for sure.
I imagine hybrid pick up trucks will remain the top choice for automakers and consumers for a long time. And I like your thinking with the CTS-V wagon, that generation of CTS-V was impressive with both the coupe and wagon options. Wow, I just looked and the Wagon's are holding their value much more than the coupe sibling.
