Or maybe because it’s a car and no one cares. We have a lot of oil wells and we don’t talk about them either.

Texas has the third largest number of EVs of any state yet is 2nd most populated state. FL has more EVs than Texas. See here.
BTW, one of the many reasons I prefer EVs is because of the hills in CA and some areas near here (VA City, Mt. Rose, etc). FL and Tx are rather flat. EV is better in the hills than a stick shift by far, IMO. Especially on an electric motorcycle. It can only compare to being in first and sixth gear at the same time. So where one lives certainly can make a big difference in the number of EVs for all types of little reasons.

Yeah, I forgot to look at the name of who I was replying to.
Yeah, I know you're in AR.
BTW, didn't I hear you're moving to AZ?

So the reason we don’t talk about ev’s in Texas is they’re rarely seen, but Texas has the 3rd most ev’s in the nation. Squaring the circle?

Eventually - this move has turned out to be a tad more involved than I thought it would.
Arkansas is a county in NE Texas, isn’t it?

No, it's a county located in SE Texas. It's also a county located in SE Arkansas.

I was saying for the population of Texas, there is less than FL, but there should be more based on the population.

I suspect that based on the valuation of the typical 3 yr. old ev as compared to a conventional car which originally sold for the same price it may point to more Texans in possession of walking around sense.

I’ll caulk that up to a spam post.

Yeah, the guy joined less than an hour before that post. But I always give the benefit of the doubt. And I cannot say anything in it was inaccurate for the UK.

An obvious copy and paste.

Why would that be?
But something similar did happen as the norm when I worked for the C & C of San Francisco. Countless more projects when the budget was very short and often little going on when the budget was much better.
But this was mainly because a project would get approved when the budget is great and by the time the projects actually start the budget will be poor again. Since that money was already approved and set aside, we were often the busiest when there was a poor budget. Ended up being a weird type of job security.

I thought so too at first, but often things work out that way, such as with my job. So, I wasn't sure.
I also heard of something like that many years ago with United Air Lines. They desperately needed to hire more employees and advertised all over the place. By the time they had it all set up to hire people, they had their biggest lay off in their history. Needless to say, none were hired from a nice long list of already tested, passed and approved applicants.

I wonder if it would help if I changed my username from "DonTom" to "TomDon."
Signing every message with my name is obviously no help.
