Much better when using green power or natural gas. But powered up with coal, it's pretty ugly.

If only a clean, compact, safe, and efficient power source existed... Oh wait it does. It's called nuclear.

More people die every week from coal than from the entirety of every nuclear accident.

Gotta love that clean coal technology. The ash in my drinking water from the Dan River plant really adds a nice zestiness to the taste.

Well, duh. But the only type of car that will get greener over time is an electric one. Now give me my Hellcat while the price of Telsas comes down to Earth.

It's the drive portion of DD that might be a problem if we use this method.
