      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.

        The entire article is about an EV truck specifically.

        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.
