Three Years Of Daily Driving My 2022 Lucid Air Through The Rockies Taught Me An EV Secret
14 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
Wayne Schell "drove his Lucid Air 71,000 miles through the Rockies and discovered an EV secret: climbing mountains drains the battery, but descending can recover over 100 miles of range."The difference between understanding EV range and mastering it is the same as knowing how to swim and being thrown into the deep end. Range anxiety isn't a bug of EVs; it's a stage in the learning curve."
The Amount of Electricity Generated From Solar Is Suddenly Unbelievable

Gas Cars Will Start to Disappear Sooner Than You Think
12 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"It turns out that when a state approaches 30% new EV sales, that's the tipping point for the number of gas cars on the road falling...Each year, there are 15-16M new cars sold in the US, while 12M exit the road permanently"...we actually only have to get to 4M new EV sales per year nationally before the number of gas cars begins its inexorable decline. That's because 16M - 12M cars = 4M. Once EVs surpass that number, there will be fewer gas cars."
Sporty, Enclosed, Tilting Three-Wheeled EV May Be Your Next Not-A-Car
12 Jul 2025 | Synopsis
"...an 'intelligent balance system' lets the two rear wheels tilt along with the vehicle's main body when taking corners, boosting performance and stability.Scholten has already built three functional proof-of-concept prototypes, two of which utilized ZF75/7 electric drivetrains made by Zero Motorcycles...One charge of the 10- to 12-kWh lithium battery pack should be good for a range of 100 to 140 miles (161 to 225 km)..."

Can 24M's Battery Deliver 1,000 Miles?
14 Oct 2025 | 
24M Technologies claims its SemiSolid battery design could enable 1,000-mile EV range. The architecture promises higher energy density, lower costs, and improved safety, but remains in development. Real-world deployment depends on materials, manufacturing scalability, and market demand. If successful, it could redefine electric mobility.
The Twilight of Strongmen: Who Falls First - Xi, Putin, or Trump?
14 Oct 2025 | 
Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, and Donald Trump each face rising strain despite their dominance. Xi’s grip on China remains firm but brittle, dependent on personal control and secrecy. Putin's regime, weakened by war and elite fatigue, is most likely to collapse first. Trump's fate rests with U.S. institutions and elections. Among the three, Putin risks falling first, Trump next, while Xi remains the most insulated - for now.
California's Q3 ZEV Surge: The EV Endgame?
13 Oct 2025 | 
California broke its ZEV sales record in Q3 2025, hitting 124,755 units and 29.1% market share. The surge was fueled by expiring federal incentives, but sustained by state infrastructure, rebates, and growing model diversity. Tesla's dominance is waning as non-Tesla brands gain ground. With 200,000+ public chargers and a 35% ZEV target by 2026, California's EV market shows lasting momentum and offers a blueprint for national adoption.
The Real Cost of Clinging to Fossil Fuels
13 Oct 2025 | 
The Las Vegas Review-Journal editorial warns of rising costs from clean energy, but critics argue renewables are now cheaper than fossil fuels. Infrastructure upgrades and legacy fuel contracts - not solar or wind - drive higher bills. Fossil fuels carry hidden costs like pollution and health impacts. Clean energy investments are transitional and necessary. The real challenge is managing the shift, not avoiding it. Clinging to fossil fuels is costlier long-term.
