Don't plan on hauling anything heavy in 25 years.

California can fall into the ocean any time. EVs aren’t not the green solution everyone thinks. EVs are about one thing. CONTROL. Easier to tax, easier to control the movement of, easier to remotely turn off, etc. EVs have nothing to do with the environment.

and last time I checked the earth had wind currents. If you fart in Mexico it ends up in Texas. So while people in Texas must comply with emissions regulations the Mexicans drive our old vehicles. Same with India, China, Africa, you name it. A lot of our old diesels we can’t legally run any more go overseas. It gives these countries an unfair competitive advantage and it needs to stop.

And if you think as an O/O you can afford a fancy New EV truck good luck. So unless you like driving for a company and being a slave the rest of your life I suggest you fight all this nonsense from speed limiters to EVs to masks to covid passports to gun control. And be willing to die if necessary.

Your future depends on it. And sorry about Cali. It can fall into the ocean or be sold to Mexico. I don’t care which.
