In 2035, the plan is 100% of us to only be able to choose from the following new vehicle options:

A: EV
B: EV
C: EV
D: nothing

^ That is being pushed. It's already law in my state, not just an idea.

Visions of 30 years from now... USA people driving 50 year old ICE cars with white-wired ECU modules running on black-market ethanol (no more Cornflakes in the morning). Hello Havana, USA

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

Although I am an EV owner, on my second Tesla(it is the family beater). I do own other ICE vehicles. In this EV utopia everyone speaks about, I plan to be the a$$hole at the stoplight ruining everyone's quiet EV day. Revving my V8 S65 running on synthetic fuel I bought online for $20/gallon.
