Hamster,

Sadly, I agree with you on the future price of gasoline and other oil derived products (plastics, fertilizers, etc).

We have already seen gasoline at ~ $4+ a gallon here in Oklahoma a few summers ago. Within a short time, I expect the price to blow through that and be in the $6-7/gallon range in the states.

Even higher, if the mid-east has another serious conflict.

Those price levels will make the EV market simply explode. I hope we are both wrong and that more moderate prices will prevail.

But sadly, I don't think we are wrong . . . . history indicates we are spot on.
