21 days, 21 new records set for US average diesel pricePolitically speaking when do shelves empty?
Serves you right for not electrifying.
>>543088942YOU LOST TRANNYNO GAS FOR TRANNIESMAGA FOREVER
Bro, it was worse under Biden. Its not that bad.
66% of diesel usage is trucking on highways. What will happen is shipping will get so expensive that it will be switched to trains, which will drop the diesel usage enough to account for the 10% worldwide loss in productivity.Farms will still be able to plow, construction will still be able to move, but it's the shipping that will change.

>>543089209those are gas prices not diesel you silly billy, it has never been worse for transport logisticsinb4 "ackshually, adjusted for inflation it's only..."
>>543088942Geez how could this have happened??
>>543088942....
>>543088942Two more weeks
>>543088942shelves don't empty because truckers don't buy their own fuel.
>>543089379really makes you think
>>543089262We need to bring back coal steam engines. There are huge deposits of mid grade coal in western North Dakota,
>>543089262Do we even have excess train capacity? Many lines have been left to rot, and repairing infrastructure is basically impossible for the current bureaucracy. They can barely maintain.
>>543090187Nah, EV trucks are already being manufactured en masse. It would take many years to get coal engines manufacturing. By then there will be hundreds of thousands of electric big rigs on the road.
>>543090482>ev trucksEvs suffer from rocket dilemma. >want to pull more>need more battery >more battery more weight less range and less net towing You see this in even new hybrid vehicles. Take for example the new toyota 4 runner, on paper a 2.4l turbo 4 gets better mileage than a 4.0 v6. However the nips didn't factor in the battery pack weight. The new 4runner gets less mgp and has a 14 gallon fuel tank. Trash
>>54309080395% of truck trips in the USA are less than 200 miles. The Tesla Semi standard has a 325 mile range at max load, and the long range has a 500 mile range at max load. If some less efficient semi came out that was 2/3 the efficiency of a Tesla Semi standard range, it could still make 200 mile routes.Hybrids are dead end tech.
>>543091130A "tesla semi truck" wouldn't go 20 miles in a Midwest winter.Actual fucking vaporware
>>543091502Alaska is way colder.
