Yes, there is. I'm not familiar with the exact specifics, but this is accurate.

Also, I'm on a contract for consulting with one of the Federal Home Loan Banks, and let me tell you, they are taking these ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) Scores very seriously, and from the Board down. These have the potential to reshape how business operates and credits is extended to individuals and businesses, and not in a good way. If your ESG score does not meet the requirements of some unknown entity, you may not get that loan. It's a really scary scenario potentially.

Finally, someone with a little sense. Maybe we need to hold off for now on going full-bore on EVs when most electrical grids across the nation can barely handle the existing homes on it now. Maybe Hybrids for a while, and a little more experimentation with Hydrogen and other possible alternatives?

It's not 10 years. It's the length of the warranty.

Quote:
vehicle manufacturers must be able to provide parts during the term of a warranty (if any) made at the time of sale. They need not make or stock these parts themselves.

Vehicle makers could choose not to do so, but then they would be required to provide a replacement vehicle or a full refund of the vehicle cost. In practice it is usually more cost effective for makers to procure replacement parts to effect a warranty repair.

A further consequence is therefore that replacement parts are also available to people who do not have a warranty claim.

Exactly. More of a "Global" approach.

Gave someone a thrill ride in my Lucid today. He said "Oh my God" If you ride in or drive one it will change your thinking.

It doesn't go VROOM VROOM. That's a no sale for most of the people here. :hmmm:
