Mark my words.
Gas cars you drive yourself=too much freedom.
You will see more and more campaign against them.
Gas prices will continue to skyrocket.
Lots more taxes and penalties coming also.
Will you give yours up?

You will own nothing and be happy.

Changing to electric cars is good. They're just better.

The campaign to not own anything is capitalism incarnate

I think I'm safe. Gas will be in the Canadian North for most of my lifetime.

No as in it will remain the main vehicle here. It's negative 56C today here. Electric does not work up here. Not yet anyways and it's likley a long way off.

It would radically disrubt aboriginal life and the Canadian gov't isn't going to do that again. We travel hundreds of miles at a time and go out for weeks straight. Battery would not be viable. Gas will remain an option until it is.

If I was American that's where I would live. No contest.

Eventually I'll move further south and live in the Yukon right next door but High Arctic has so much to offer right now.

Right below the tree line seams like the sweet spot to me.
I could go further if forced.
But man, I will really miss campfires.

Trees would be nice. Ultimately why I see us moving to the Yukon.

Dodge is about to stop making the hemi in place of a turbo6 as the most powerful motor.

This kind of shit cuts deep. I will never give up any of my vehicles.

One of my hemis can eat a gallon of gasoline in less than a minute.
Live for that shit.
