A couple years from now, when the oil drilling, and refining industry in the USA is once again operating at 100% instead of 25% which is where we are at now, and when the volume of electric cars on the road are truly taxing the electrical grid, thereby drastically increasing the electrical rates, who knows what the license plates will say.

I don't worry about these things. Money always finds a way to make the impossible possible. The ice car plates should say: lol 30 min wait to pump electrons.
