To each his own but I think it was a bad decision. A true gear head loves power but it's just a much about the sound a big cam with high compression, the smell of race gas and feel of the car.

I agree.I fell in love with that car when it was in the movie Hollywood Nights.

I don't know why evs and "real" cars and trucks can't co-exist. For the vast majority of drivers, a car is little more than an appliance, to be used for a purpose and discarded and replaced when necessary. Many of those people would be well-served by a ev, assuming we come up with enough electricity to power them (which we do NOT have now--see California, Texas last winter, etc.) Those who really need the power, range, versatility, capabilities, etc of fueled cars and trucks can continue to use and enjoy those. Everybody happy!
