Personal enjoyment? I'll take any of my old smelly rambunctious V8s any day. A moderate dose of CO is good for ya, probably kills Covid.

The only problem with that analogy is millions of folks aren’t buying V8 performance cars. More like tens of thousands. Millions are buying pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers. The electric vehicles that are coming are pickup trucks, SUVs, and crossovers. If somewhere along the line the automakers that will make hundreds of thousands of battery electric pickups, SUVs, and crossovers decide to also make a decent performance coupe, I’m all in on checking it out.
