California bans new diesel truck sales

[Lionfish]

Yep, doubling down on stupid, California has now banned new diesel truck sales starting in 2035. They want all trucks in and entering California to be zero emissions by then. They set a date of 2030 for ending such truck use in ports and certain other facilities too.

This is in a state that can't even keep the lights on 24/7. If you live in Cali, get ready to not have shit to eat or get anything delivered.

Remember, as of right now, commercial sized EV trucks barely exist, and then almost entirely as prototypes. I doubt in the next 13 years truck manufacturers will have switched to batteries or fuel cells...

Prolly fitting if truckers refuse to enter CA.

Well, that's okay now because they've banned all natural gas appliances like water heaters, furnaces, and stoves and want the state to have zero in use by 2030. This means you will freeze with nothing to eat because you can't cook, heat, or drive your car to get food...

I'm not whining, I'm pointing out the insanity of the Left.

Awesome. Why aren’t you “fair and balanced” about pointing out the insanity of the Right, Chief?

You’re not required to be fair and balanced, Chief, but it sure as shit looks funny when you aren’t. LOL

Good those fuckers are noisy. When you're camping have one of those things drive by your tent at night.

The air will be much cleaner and summer recreation will be much more enjoyable.

Does the ban include banning trucks purchased outside the state? There's no sales tax in Oregon (of course, CA would make you pay the sales tax to license it).

2035? What should I do? Be outraged or what?

Chevrolet just unveiled an entire fleet of electric cars, including pickups and SUV's. We will be all electric sooner rather than later, I imagine.

Also, I saw an all-electric sport vehicle, I think it was a Mustang! Pretty cool!

[LurchAddams]

There has been zero evidence that battery trucks work.

Notice how California does not give a flying fuck.

There's actually plenty of evidence they work. So much so you can buy an electric truck now, if you'd like.

I'd settle for one solid day without your manic posts.

Because when you get to the same level of crazy on the Right NOBODY GIVES A SHIT because their numbers are tiny and they are puerile idiots. Only the radical Left wants to make a big deal out of the radical Right because the radical Left wants to draw attention away from themselves.

Say that when you have no food, heat, electricity, or any other amenities...

The ban includes trucks purchased elsewhere that would be registered in California. It includes, depending on destination within the state, trucks registered elsewhere too.

An attempted coup by one political party is something new.
