How dare Biden help American people and not just suppress them by restricting voting, abortion, books, etc.!!!!
Also, reserves are rising. He released 1 million barrels back in May (we're at 370 MILLION barrels in the reserves, so 1 million is nothing) to help with prices cause all you republicans do is whine about gas prices as your drive your V8 super lifted trucks and donate all your money to Trump.
We're also producing the most oil ever in the united states:
https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=61545Biden depleted nearly half of the emergency US oil reserves in almost a year. him adding a few million barrels now is negligible. Worse, he has drawn down the reserve for non-emergency reasons. The barrels released in May had little to no impact for consumers at the pump.
There is something to be said about V8 vs modern constrained engine design. For example, Toyota Tundra gen2 known for million mile engine, many still running like they barely broken in at hundreds of thousands of miles. Tundra Gen3 known for blowing engines, huge recall. Old way was natural aspirated, new way is turbo and choke for emissions.
On the other end, there is Tesla model Y. The battery pack is closed cell spray foamed into the chassis... Imagine servicing a battery cell failure when it's foamed together. Google how much it cost to recycle closed cell spray, usually as much or more than cost of foam install.
US auto regulations don't really help consumer and feign to help environment. Love the V8, it will last
