    There are about 44 Hydrogen fueling stations in the USA right now. Every home and parking structure damn near has at least a power outlet.

    Today you can do a cross county road trip with an EV. You can not do that with a Fuel Cell. I don’t see that changing. Batteries are just more convenient.

      Same could be said of BEVs not that long ago.

      And no, it will never be more convenient than a chemical fuel. Once there are more hydrogen stations, no one will bother with slow recharging.

          Then why does everyone complain about long recharge times, or long lines at fast charging stations?

          Look, you don’t have to lie to yourself anymore. There’s a technology that can reduce refueling/recharge times to that of a gasoline car. Might as well start talking about the next big idea, not prop up the outdated one.

              Wrong. Again, my goal is to solve climate change. You’re making shit up about why this is happening.

              Like I said, you no longer have to lie to yourself about the limitations of BEV. An FCEV refuels in 5 minutes, solving this problem completely. Unless you think I’m making this up, then you are the one projecting here.

                We all think you are insecure and borderline mentally ill, if that’s what you mean.

                The proof is in the pudding. The market has spoken and nobody is buying your pipe dream.

                You lost. Get over it.

                  Says the man stuck in 2015, totally abandoned by the entirety of the political left.

                  You’re just a brainwash fool at this point. Still chasing the lies of this one Fascist dude as if the rest of world still believes those lies.

                Bro you’re literally not solving climate change with hydrogen vehicles no matter how much you tell people on obscure forums on the interwebs. You’d have much more of an effect on the fossil fuel industry by driving your car into a refinery.

                  Most people won’t have any effect whatsoever, and some will do more harm than good. At least I’m doing something.

                If your goal is to solve climate change then why are you spending all this energy bickering about how you think hydrogen cars are better than EVs? Everyone driving a hydrogen car isn’t going to solve climate change.

                  By itself, no. But you can power basically anything with hydrogen. Pretty much all of industry will switch to hydrogen. Same is true of most of transportation. It’s just the BEV fanatic crowd that suddenly has an issue with passenger cars also being powered by hydrogen. In reality, it is a big revolution across many sectors. That will in fact solve climate change or at least greatly reduce the problem.

                    Guess what, bud, you can power basically anything with electricity too. Electricity even powers hydrogen vehicles!
