The stories I could tell. My gas has taken out legions. Just a smattering:

- the First Class section on a Delta flight to Atlanta

- an entire subway car (in the dark) coming out of Boston that had people gagging

- 5 rows x about 12 seats wide of the upper deck (so outside and in the wind) of fans at a Patriots game at Foxboro

- about 10 people that were trapped with me inside one of the "Back to The Future" ride pods at Universal Studios on the day the ride opened

- an entire Executive Board meeting for the local I used to be a member of (one of the old timers there considered pulling the fire alarm because it was so bad)

The list is endless. For about a decade, I was a king. Now, I got nothin'.

lol Googled EV average weight vs gas powered vehicle average weight.

Came up with EVs typically 30% heavier.

Now Google effects of weight on road surface damage and wear.

Found a few different calculations but the extra 30% isn’t 30% more road wear.

Try like 1200% more.

we have to pay more in registration bc of the weight of our trucks and the extra wear on the roadways, they should have to do the same

i wonder if you're somehow related to my dad. We were on a road trip once and my cousin, who was small enough to be in a car seat, asked if my dad need his diaper changed
