Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

You and I are on completely opposite sides when it comes to vehicles. Driving is what I do to get to the thing I actually want/need to do. It's the price I pay to do the things I want when they can't be done "here". The only reason I don't have someone drive for me is because I can't afford that. The only reason I don't have a computer do it for me is because we haven't made one good enough to do it, and I hope it happens soon. If I could teleport to my destination and get back the years of my life spent in a car waiting to do something else, I would. If the odds of my turning into a fly were less than 50% over 50 years, I'd still strongly consider it. As for fighting to control my vehicle, that just sounds like a second job, and I don't want to pay to have one of those.

I get that all those things sound like "soul" to you, but they all sound like "work" and "wasted time" to me.
