But if we quit subsidizing fossil fuel companies and gas hits $6 a gallon it won't make sense to keep driving ICE cars ...we make our own future

ULTRA FAST CHARGING Graphene Aluminum Ion EV Battery Tech
An Australian Graphene manufacturer by the name of the GRAPHENE MANUFACTURING GROUP is partnering with the University of Queensland to develop and commercialize a NEW GRAPHENE ALUMINUM ION battery that according to early tests may be able to charge fully in 5 minutes or less! In this video I talk about this battery tech and whether it is all hype, or the real deal.

Here's Why the Nuclear-Powered 1958 Ford Nucleon Never Entered Production (thedrive.com)
Inside the Impossible Dream of the Nuclear-Powered 1958 Ford Nucleon
Driving more than 5,000 miles without stopping to refuel sounds like a '50s fever dream—because it was.
In 1958, Ford showed the world a car like it had never seen before, one powered by a small nuclear reactor. The Ford Nucleon, as it was christened, was envisioned as a car capable of driving more than 5,000 miles between fueling stops, appealing to a postwar fixation with convenience that has dominated American consumerism since. Like some other midcentury nuclear fantasies, though, the Nucleon never came to fruition, in part due to engineering problems we still struggle with to this day.
Before we examine why the Nucleon could never be, let's get a better grasp of the car itself, starting with its utterly comical dimensions. Ford's press materials envisaged the Nucleon stretching 200.3 inches long and 77.4 wide, making it as long as the new Ford Maverick compact pickup, but slightly wider. Its roof was said to measure just 41.4 inches high, making it less than an inch taller than the legendarily low-slung Ford GT40.
