I think it'll become cost prohibitive before it's gone, we'll see. It took them 20 years I believe to get rid of leaded gasoline completely and I know it wasn't on every street corner in the end. I don't ever remember seeing it local when I was a kid.

The big problem with electric is there needs to be massive improvements in the power grid and electricity will no doubt go through the roof due to infrastructure costs and way higher demand. Plus the current range needs to be doubled to work here. Major cities are hundreds of miles apart. My Wife is basically getting her treatment 140 to 350 km away. It is a good start and hopefully it is a better 4 spd auto than a 4L60E. It will probably be comparable in price to a mid level gas crate option in time.
Hard. Pass.
Kids don't give thumb ups when you are cruising around on only electrons.

When your new build is done we'll go cruising, and I'll bring the wagon. We will let the people decide.
But, yeah the LS thing is a bit played out. I want a 7.3L Godzilla Ferd now!
It will only be fair if the new Edelbrock heads go on it. 265/195 vs 210/165 that the current #6 iron probably flow. The 7.3 is pretty cool.
I think it would be cool in a chevy LUV or something. Battery under the bed floor. Solar panel on a topper.
Of course, you set the terms.
It's the equivalent of a pumped up LS.
You need lots of electricity to make your own hydrogen, so, make your own electricity.
