    We've been talking here at TGF about EV's for several years now, hows that transition to electric cars going?

    Is it taking off - nope.

    Is it picking up speed - nope.

    it seems to have stalled.

    more electric cars will be sold this year than last or any other year.  Every year for the next couple decades will see all time highs in EV sales.

    MM you do realize that with Ukraine we're guaranteed something like 80c to the $ back by the european union on everything we fund don't you?  So while it seems like 100 billion it's far from that.  Same with Israel I would guess.  Ukraine and Zelensky are scum, but Israel is our ally to defend at all costs.

    Gmcarroll gets it.  Most of that 100 billion is going to resupply the US for what we have given away.

    That's not very practical is it? What does it cost to have that as an add on? imagine if every EV had an option like that? For only an extra $10K you can have an emergency backup generator on your tesla...come and get it.

    you are being obtuse.  Again.  It is a service truck handling a bus power outage.  It isn't part of the bus.  I have never needed one and most others have not either. Don't be dumb.

    Ok, so if they cruise on electric power and then fire up the generator(using diesel) to recharge, what's the point?

    The point is it was an emergency charge.  Just like if you ran out of gas and they come bring you gas.  They aren't using generators to charge these buses except in emergencies, like this one.

    He's retired so he's a little more free to tell the truth. Dont you get it, remember pre war when if an israeli soldier or settler was killed it was a big deal? They're losing dozens a day dead and wounded. Killing hundreds of people/day in gaza doesn't stop that.

    Israel is not losing.  They may be battling an unwinnable war but they certainly are not losing.  Pictures tell the story.

    Like MM said it needs to be armed, artillery shell need 500 spins in the barrel before it gets armed you can hammer it and it will not go off, similar for the torpedos. 

    so how does it get armed from the air?  For the story to be true, the bomb would have had to be armed, no?

    I just post what i see, the main question is did a uke soldier shoot 4 of his comrades? if so that's bad. here's an interesting video, russian war industry dwarfs anything we have.

     

    just pointing out that your news reports are just as ridiculous as main stream

    While israel  and the media lie and say iran missed everything, and brag that no one was hurt or killed, the reality is that Israel is losing men every day in large numbers.

     

    was that a drone?  Looked like a jet.  Didn't seem to do much damage either way.
