    Liquid gasoline is not flammable. It has to be vaporized first and that vapor has to be with in a specific range of concentration of fuel vapor to oxygen. You can throw a lit match into a bucket filled to the brim and it will put the match out. All those scenes you see on TV and in movies of fuel tanks exploding are faked. It very happens in real life and then only after the tank has been ruptured and the fuel has leaked out on the ground.

    Lithium batteries on the other hand can spontaneous combust. In fact pure lithium will react instantly with water. In fact it is a common high school lab demonstration.

          Ford CEO Jim Farley believes that the electric car market is going to soon enter a price war with upcoming $25,000 models. He added, electric vehicles will be sold 100% online and have nonnegotiable price.

            The majority of copier techs don't know the first thing about connectivity, thats why they have an IT dept. You are talking hardware and software, Apples and oranges. Wow, this is your argument? Get the fuck out of here.
            ... all of the techs that I work with and that have hired in the last couple of years are cross trained on connectivity. Even my older techs from the analog copier days are expected to install print drivers, configure scan to email. If they need help, we Windows 10 Quick Assist in when they are at the customer location.

            This has been the expectation for the last couple of years and you are under representing the capabilities of most copier technicians who work for independent dealers.

At this point the majority of charging stations still take an absurdly long time to charge, but they have a plan huh, and I'm the one missing something? I made legitimate points, you have no idea if I drive electric ,hybrid ,or a hummer, you just pounced. Slow down fella it's not a race to see who can hate each other first. Although you guys make me wonder sometimes with your endless rhetoric. Anyway my question have been raised and answered. Goodnight everyone.
              ... you are still missing the point and nobody pounced.

              If a tractor trailer rig is driving from distribution center to distribution center a few hundred km apart every day back and forth, there is plenty of time to deep recharge the trucks batteries overnight.

              I know because I have personally invested my own money in a Canadian/ USA electric trucking company called Lion Electric. I follow them everyday.

              I do not care what you personally drive.

              If I am so wrong and you are so right, why did Amazon and UPS buy all of the long haul electric trucks from Tesla that they can get their hands on?

                ... and this is how Ford plans to beat Tesla at its own game. If the proposed vehicle gets good reviews, they will not be able to make them fast enough. Of course, this distribution model will upset many auto dealers.

                  Mythbusters proved liquid gas is not flamable. They threw matches into it and could not get it to go up. Gas vapors are dangerous. Your car feeds the vapors from the tank back into the engine to be burned. Gas pumps also have vapor recovery.
