Now the question remains,,,,,why does the Mods of an extra Battery and Charger makes it illegal? Keep in mind, 100 MPG.
Take care.

Most likely the modifications voids the car's epa compliance, the law was passed against cars that were modified the opposite way, or if state it could one of many different reasons.
I'll see if I can dig something up.
Easy enough, a MA law will prevent modifications if it makes the car nosier. So in this case it is sound abatement and not oil companies that is restricting the modifications.

My sole concern is,,,100 MPG. That and an added battery and Charger...Other than that, Screw any "Bought and Paid For" Politicians... 
This is a good start. We should look seriously into it.
Take care, T/S. Peace.

It will not happen until every oil field is dry. The oil companies will see to that and nobody's pockets are as deep as theirs.

That doesn't make any sense Carson...We have available vast quantities of Oil we've not been allowed to access....Off our Eastern and Western shores. Plus the entire Gulf, and Alaska...
That, and not one new Refinery being built in the last 20+ years... 
No more Bullshit Carson...Our Central States have more oil in Shale than the entire Middle East...Fact.
Yet, We've not been allowed to access it. Tell me why? Make it good Carson...

simple because it is profitable not to. We pretend to have a shortage today so that we can insure that there will be some to sell tomorrow at an even higher price. Money talks baby. You act like oil companies give a fuck about the American people. They don't. It doesn't matter what we have if the oil companies are not willing to process it.

Y ou're talking like a Liberal that won't allow a new Refinery being built over the last 20 years...Or, a new Nuclear Power Plant the same time.
China derives 80% of their power from Coal. France has Nuclear Reactors doing the same...80%
Yet Liberal asswipes won't allow America to build either.
And we have the most of both forms of Energy available. Carson,,, pull your head out of your ass.
Peace.

China derives 80% of their power from Coal. France has Reactors doing the same...80% thats because the oil companies home base is America. Doesn't everybody already know that?
Yet Liberal asswipes won't allow America to build either. like I said its not the liberals oil companies are happy to not build for their own reasons, like I said mainly profit
And we have the most of both forms of Energy available. Carson,,, pull your head out of your ass.
Peace. |
You are the one who needs to pull your head outta of your ass. Its not about availability, it's about profit. We don't have shit. You want oil companies to decrease their profits and having other forms of energy doesn't do that. Therefore it will not happen until all oil is gone. The oil companies can take that to the bank.

Not at all Carson,,,Liberal Whackos control Democrats,,,they vote against any and all "exploration" of known Oil sites. Liberal Whackos hound any new Nuclear Power Sites being built,,,as you well know.
Pay attention now Carson,,, It's not about a single "Business". It about our Survival as a Nation. We are as Free as the some of worlds people have ever been.... You don't really think that you'd have the same chance to "express" your views under the watchful eye of Leftist Communists, or Islamic Assholes....Do you?
I still have hope you're not that dense.

No matter who votes on what that won't change.
Pay attention now Carson,,, It's not about a single "Business". It about our Survival as a Nation. pay attention now realist, the oil companies could give a million fucks about a nation, they look at profits We are as Free as the some of worlds people have ever been.... smiling while you make no sense great You don't really think that you'd have the same chance to "express" your views under the watchful eye of Leftist Communists, or Islamic Assholes....Do you? No but that has nothing to do with what we are talking about, I'm ok expressing myself with a gun or a bomb if that what I'm driven to but it's not the case so who fucking cares.

If your not dense than understand that oil companies could give a fuck about America or any other nation for that matter.

As long as you're "Ok" doing this Carson... (Carson Quote) I'm ok expressing myself with a gun or a bomb if that what I'm driven to but it's not the case so who fucking cares.
Hopefully, you won't be offended if we put a bullet in what passes for your brain.
Rational People are having a hard enough time dealing with Islamic Assholes... Let alone Liberals having hissy fits with guns and bombs.
