The US can produce all the oil it needs. It cannot mine all the battery materials it needs.
Ok, good luck producing gasoline. You won't have it when you need it most.
Quit being a NiggerFaggot. Energy is energy dude. If you can't see the value of producing your electricity on-site, you are a fool who will be waiting for a gasoline shipment during a zombie apocolypse.
WTF are you talking about, I'm speaking of a national level not an individual level.
Also you don't need gasoline nor electricity to power a vehicle.

What are you? Some kind of communist? The nation is made up of individuals. It's YOUR responsibility to be self sufficient.

Yeah, you are right. Fred Flintstone's vehicle didn't run on gasoline or electricity.
That's true only for lithium based batteries. The entire industry is working to significantly move away from lithium batteries, if not completely.
Turns out OP disagrees with all technology which uses copper or aluminum too.
They are forcing us into EVs as a form of control. They simply won't do these thing if it didn't give them the upper hand. It would be dumb to kill gasoline and only rely on EVs and vice versa.
I'd rather be in a turbo diesel that OP has vs a quiet EV. I used to be into EVs until I drove one, now I like gas and diesel more than ever.
EV has nothing to do with control. Technically it means much more freedom. An EV can be charged indefinitely off grid. Which isn't true for gas cars. A possibility with biodisel. But you'd still need a large oil supply. Possible but harder.
The control part is the self driving, monitoring, and automation. This is pushing into every vehicle segment, gas, diesel, and EV.
Buy a new car today and it reports some 5,000,000-11,000,000 samples per day to the manufacturer. Did you know that? Services like on star are commonly used to monitor private conversations in cars. The capability is there and commonly used by "agencies."
Electric vehicles are not the issue. Current battery technology and the technocrats are the issue.
As for performance, EV is generally superior to gas.
