Baloney. Worse, if a when an internal combustion vehicle catches fire it does not take 2+ hours and thousands of gallons of water to put it out.
Hard to argue with statistics, but the dems do it everyday so I guess why not do it here. Also, my dad (fire chief) said it’s more like 30-45min to put out an EV fire…but can be in excess of 50k gallons.

Also, when an ICE vehicle catches fire it can spew fuel across multiple levels burning hundreds of cars or even explode with occupants inside Here there’s always positives and negatives

Well, I did it…
I BOUGHT AN EV RAPTOR!
Range seems ok at this point. It will make it out to the mailbox and down to the end of the street without topping off the Flux Capacitor.
It Handles the Curbs and ice without breaking stride…

A shocking video shows a row of electric F-150s bursting into flames after EV batteries overheated and caught on fire.

Typical fake news clickbait. The video actually shows one Lightning burning in a row of Lightnings. Even with the clever misleading camera angle, it looks like only one on fire.

Additional picture to the story. Pretty sure only one started it. The other two probably started by being in the vicinity.
