Yes those too!
There is probably some scientific way to do this. Measure the impact on roads, society, other road users and the environment. and tax the vehicles with the worst impact more.
This whole thread started because someone mentioned the idea of taxing vehicles over 5000lbs, which a normal gas f150 is not. So this hypothetical tax probably wouldn’t apply to your work truck.
And yeah, I also was poking fun at the people giving you shit because they are accidentally showing implied support for combustion engines.
And I’m having a giggle in general about how often people don’t read the article or get sidetracked from what is actually even being talked about.
@CableMonster
Thanks.
You can probably see where I am going with this.
There is a big difference between a smaller practice work truck and a giant monster truck.
The aim of any taxes should be to discourage certain trucks and encourage others.
@CableMonster @anothercatgirl
Just out of curiosity, what sort of truck do you drive?
Just a standard 1 ton pickup.
that’s a quarter of the size of the vehicle in the headline though
So not a 7000lb+ EV then?

No, just standard fuel. Are you guys against EVs now?
