So we should see a resurgence of those "I did that" Biden stickers at the pumps right? Lmao

They blame him when prices are up. It's only fair if he gets credit when they're down.

The fact that gas prices are somehow representative of how well the President is doing makes no sense at all.

In fact, if they were doing well they'd start weaning the US off the enormous oil subsidies and those prices would skyrocket and people would think harder about other forms of transportation.

There are no alternatives to cars in a lot of places.

You know there are cars that don't use gasoline?

Yes but electric vehicles don't meet my usage needs. Yet

They suddenly would if gas prices were $6/gallon.

No, it would just be more expensive. I do tons of remote travel and the range and lack of charging infrastructure are prohibitive until that improves.

Doubt it.

Dude I take people on wilderness adventures all over the US, but that's only a side gig. I've definitely never seen an EV on rough mountain 4x4 trails though. I'm sure they've gone many of those places but out there they bring generators to recharge. How many superchargers per square mile are there in Wyoming, Montana, South/North Dakota? Hell even Kansas which isn't so remote? Even on major highways where charging is easier to find, I sometimes drive 1200 miles/day. It just isn't ready yet.
