I see the same reasons re-hashed. reasons that the EV cheerleaders always fail to have an answer for. Such as? Range, catching fire, carbon footprint, cost, towing, charging. All addressed and answered a dozen times. Do you mean they aren't exactly the same as petrol cars and you don't like it?

Look it up yourself zany...Its like you stated a while ago that I had et slip what I drove...I have mentioned i enough times on here. I stated what I had part exchanged my mitsubishi shogun for along with the thread on parking tickets where I had cut off the clamp....Unlike you I don't have to sell the vehicle that I own as they sale themselves... I can't look it up because it doesn't exist. There is no 5 ton upgrade to the "boot" of a Navara. Plenty on Utube zany and motoring sites that are NOT nut zero idiots.

EV's will only become popular when people buy them through choice rather than through legislation. And that wont happen until EV's are as cheap, reliable and last as long as a diesel which is decades away. And that's just this country, or western Europe but in some parts of the world EV's will never happen. Agreed. Smokeless coal only became popular when they banned smoky coal. HFC's only became popular when they banned CFC's Sometimes the greater good has to come before personal choice. Paid workers only became popular when we banned slavery. ;-)
I think those who work in cobalt mines wouldn't share your view zany....But there are a great many who wouldn't share your views on electric lemons as they think for themselves rather than being influenced by the snotty nosed little doom goblin.

Well you put up a you tube link with every other post, so put one up showing the 5 ton boot upgrade for the Navara. Put up or shut up.

More generic nothing words bought to you from Pacifico. Fantasy predictions such as range will increase. Lol. Every time the range increases a you tube twat claims he has to drive further. And apparently every ICE owner knows someone who drives from Lands end to John of Groats every day without a break. Its so petty its laughable.

The difference is if you ban the internal combustion engine, you are likely to have society start to fall apart around your ears unless you have a proper replacement.
The trouble is you have been hypnotized and have a poor grasp of the world at large - either that or you are gas-lighting in order to keep a share portfolio valuable.

Put up or shut up. There are numorous videos on yotube zany...Isn't it about time you put up or shut up about any merits there are to onwning and using an EV...

It wasn't because it was a battery car.

Try again. That's towing. Not in your boot. You claimed a spring upgrade meant you could put 5 tons in your boot.

The world is not the same as the UK - this bizarre fetish of yours to believe that a comfortable western lifestyle is shared by everyone around the globe is madness. The technological limitations to widespread EV use in most of the world mean that they simply will not be the answer.

I never refuse to answer. I've tried to explain how systems work but you don't understand because you have obviously never studied science at any level. You're a bit like these people who belatedly discover music - usually after hearing some piece that they'd love to play. So they buy an instrument and start trying to play the piece, but they find it completely impossible - the reason being that they don't know the basics. There's a whole lot of really boring stuff that you have to get into your head before you can even attempt to play the piece you want. Your question "Despite all the other factors does Co2 cause the planet to be warmer or not?" is meaningless. If the "other factors" were not there then CO2 would cause the planet to warm. But then you're just repeating Tyndall's experiment with a box and a UV light. But the "other factors" ARE there - and the experiments have failed to show CO2 warming in this environment. And the reason is plainly obvious. CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but it's also a gas that causes plants to grow - and when plants grow they absorb large amounts of the Sun's energy to drive the chemical reactions that create the higher organic compounds. And this causes cooling. Whether the overall effect of CO2 is warming or cooling is not known. The experiments would indicate there's no overall effect. And I've asked you to provide evidence of its overall warming effect and you've never provided it. You answer questions that were not asked. I didn't ask how the system works, I know that in as much detail as do you. Anyway much as you to try to bury it, you agree above that Co2 is a greenhouse gas. After that the sums are pretty simple. The amount of Co2 in the atmosphere is tightly linked to the earths temperature, despite vegetations increased absorption due to this increased Co2 it is clear that vegetation is not keeping up and maintaining the balance. The earth is warming and its due to manmade Co2. All your 'science' above is just an explanation of net zero. The point at which the earths systems can balance and keep Co2 at a stable non growing point. As I keep saying for the benefit of those who think net zero means zero, it means the above. That's simply not true. Any attempt to show a correlation between CO2 and average global temperature has failed - except when the data has been filtered through the climate change model that assumes CO2 causes warming. That's a fact. And another fact is that CO2 causes cooling of the planet - which is conveniently ignored by the models (basically because it's to hard to model).

LOL why would anyone want to put 5 tons in a one ton pickup bed? without bending the chassis which I doubt could take 5 tons, me thinks you are being a little over the top Jonsky. They are probably rated to tow 3.5 tons so maybe towable weight which is based on kerbweight, if you have ever towed with something above its kerbweight it can get a bit hairy especially passing lorries.
