Wyoming is set to BAN sales of new electric vehicles by 2035

I've driven across Wyoming three times in an EV. About 5 years ago, when I first tried it, I cam to a Tesla charger with minor vandalism to two of the ports. The last visit, I tried to locate a 12V battery replacement for a 2018 Model X. Three tries, at shops in one of their towns, and I cam up with nothing. A short 1 hour drive back to Colorado got it replaced that day.

In winter, the interstates can get completely closed... I don't know, for days? Maybe a local can give some stories. I'm not sure I'd want to own an EV in Wyoming.

This is mostly political posturing. Wyoming is one of the most conservative states in the country, with a tiny population, extremely low population density, very basic infrastructure, and massive oil/gas industry - perhaps one of the worst places for EVs in the lower 48, so it's not like they were going to be common in the first place.

Further, the WY state legislature is sending a copy of the bill to California and NY (either legislatures or governors, I forget which).

The date gives this away as some kind of ridiculous political posturing. By 2035 gasoline cars will be <20% of all auto sales.

Interesting story out of Wyoming, but surely we can do better than Daily Fail GOTCHA reporting, with it's formulaic approach of capitalizing the most emotive word in the headline. Sorry, but I judge people negatively if they habitually submit content from low-quality news outlets.

Wish other states would follow its lead.

The extra weight of electric vehicles is far more dangerous than another degree or two of global warming.
