Looks like the party is starting to wind down when it comes to ICE performance cars. Late 60s/early 70s deja vu all over again. Get them while you can for sure.

Just to be clear, EVs are the future and I wouldn't be opposed to having one eventually. With the right setup, performance is on a whole other level.

The reality of the situation though is a little different this time. If the PTB were serious about green energy, there would be an increase in nuclear plants being built and coming online. In addition, the power grid doesn't need to be built with foreign-built components that could allow for intrusion and malicious actions by bad actors. Actual secure, functional and efficient infrastructure still needs to be built out nationwide. For example, take a new EV F150 towing a camper or boat and try to fit into one of those charging stations parking spaces without blocking half the parking lot and disrupting traffic flow. Battery and charging technology is nowhere as advanced as it needs to be currently.

The green energy transition in its current iteration will be painful. The effort is nothing more than a political money grab and all those orders for EVs are merely sheep lining up to be fleeced.
