They fail to mention how much “Fossil Fuels “ it takes to produce these biofuels. I hauled a load(6200 gallons) of used cooking oil from Ocala to Houston to a refinery. I happened to burn diesel fuel in my truck. 😉 Turning seed to cooking oil .. growing seed ... errything in-between. True cost fight only counts towards the negative when it's something Cyclist doesn't like. Way less carbon use and emissions, cradle to grave, with biofuels versus fossil fuels. Do your research, talking out of your ass isn't doing anyone any good.

Biofuels are far more harmful than Dino diesel. Yet another reason your should be in prison.

Unfortunately for you there is no way biofuels can replace diesel. The numbers don’t lie.

See guys, I can be civil sometime, even when a magaa moron lies.

No such thing as fossil fuels unless you can show that plants and animals lived on Titan... which has more hydrocarbons than Earth.

See guys, I can be civil sometime, even when a magaa moron lies. Veggie oils are sourced from seed to the processor. Pretty simple. It gets delivered to a distributor, then used, then picked back up, brought to a holding area, then it gets processed. There's a lot of hands, fuel, and chemicals involved. If it was so great it would go from farm to fuel tank. That won't happen

Dodge just announced their 2025 Ram 1500 that will have an engine to generate a charge for their electric drive motors. 600 mile range on a 97 kwh battery and 28 gal gas tank to run the gen set (actually a v6 engine). Interesting. Should satisfy those with mileage issues.

Interesting. Should satisfy those with mileage issues. 690 mile range, 663 horsepower, 625 lbs torque, 2600 lb payload, and 14,000 lb towing capacity. Zero to 60 in 4 seconds. They call it the Ramcharger. Sounds like one bad ass truck and can be yours for about $70,000. I saw a video on one model and it had some pretty cool features. If I win the lottery, I will add it to the list of vehicles I will buy.

It's not an EV. 48% of EV owners won't buy EV again.

He's wrong about the U.S. too, but don't let that surprise you, he is wrong about everything. The problem with the surveys is some don't ask if you are selling your EV to buy an ICE. Many are two car households and have an EV for around town and an ICE for trips and towing and such. Most Tesla and luxury EV owners are very loyal and will replace the EV with another EV. 70% of those owners say they will get another EV. Also, the EV owners have not said they won't buy an EV again. There is a reason luapnor never sources any of his claims he posts. The surveys, depending on the questions asked, is all over the place, from 30% to 48% that say their next purchase would be an ICE vehicle, but even at 48%, that means the majority of EV owners would get a second EV. Hybrids like the Ramcharger above are becoming more popular and may be the vehicle of the future for many.

I will replace my ICE vehicles with EV's when they solve the tow issue. I need an 8000# capacity tow vehicle. The RamCharger is an option, but I think they're going to introduce more extended range vehicles in the near future. Prices will drop.
