I'm sorry I've read that headline a few times and it doesn't make any sense anymore than the first time.

How are cars like Horses and what does that have to do with EVs? What's this going on about?

Make charging take 10 minutes and make them affordable and many people would switch over. Also start installing charging stations at gas stations so you have both options in the US.

You know what horse can do that no car, electric or not, can do?

You can get on a horse, or horse-drawn carriage, completely wasted drunk out of your mind, or high, or just too tired to drive. Tell horse "home" and he will go to the stable he came from, dragging you with it all the way.

Horses consume no gasoline, no diesel, they just eat literal grass and drink tap water. And their shit is often packaged and sold as fertilizer.

How the fuck in the times of high energy prices, both gas and electricity, people are not just turning back to horses is beyond me. Horses are economically viable and sound, just grab the horses from working type, not sport type. Smarter than AI, calmer than Trump (and more reasonable), grass-to-fertilizer converter, biological motorbike.

Have you ever been near someone who just came out of a stable?
