For hunters they are silent and have no exhaust stink.

what are you hunting? Around here the deer are stupid and don't even care if you drive right up to them. I had to wait about 5 minutes to park in my yard while this 8point was trying to woo a cute doe.

I just sat there in the driveway with my light shining on him and he just ignored me...

I’d trust a 20 year old Polaris over anything they’ve built in the past 5-6 years.

Yeah, I have a forty year old three wheeler... but I do all my hunting on foot.

Had to do a double take on that one. Thought it was some sort of Rube Goldberg beer cooler...

Haha, nope. Diesel genset and some Teslas. Doubt this is what the C.A.R.B. thought people were doing with their "clean air" stickered vehicles, these things certainly don't have emissions controls but you could Rube Goldberg a beer cooler into it...

... but I do all my hunting on foot.

Foot? My dog does all the work for me, except go to DNR & get me my license! Sit back with a shotgun & wait for some ducks. Cooper swims out and gets 'em when they fall.

The phrase "renewable energy" is one intended to confuse. Energy is not a thing, it's a flow - it flows from higher concentrations to lower. Chiefly on earth the energy we have access to is solar energy which flows from the sun to dissipate at the background temperature of the earth. It's a one way trip and can never be renewed. What people are really talking about is stored solar energy (fossil fuel) or the real time flows of solar energy. The latter is what humans have always had access to, while discovering and learning to use the stored energy of fossil fuels is what allowed our industrial society and the present population.

great points...all true to a point...

....not all oil is solar based biomass. some looks to be from whatever/however the geo-moments/events that are active under the surface....

that, to the point we only know one thing for sure..... we have no fuking idea how it is made or what it actually is.....

stored energy from the massive geo events i feel safe to assume... so to your point. its stored already. but not directly bio based.




based on the rock and carbon cycle events i was taught...

oil is dino juice

coal is a newer version closer to surface still under the cycle....dont know how that explains all of the fawking surface oil we mopped up...but just to be easy we wont go there..........

so is it....oil in general... really old coal crushed way way down coal made from plankton.... kelp forests and surface air forests and boggs ect... how it got down there 5 miles away....i dont even want to know anymore.

i just drill the fawking holes to go get it.....but in the 30 years i have been doing this shit...the reality does not line up with the bullshit they taught me in school. especially on formations...


what i do know....is the roof surface on my house is more then enough area to power my needs via the recent delivery via photon that day...combined with capacitor based/battery storage...which pulls it off for the night.

there are people doing this right now..... not tech available in ten years....tech that is 15 years old today.

its not easy...

and its not cheap.

but at 180-200 bux a barrel for oil in todays dollars...it is easier to see it as doable.

and it sure as hell will power up a tesla in just an hour or two.

Crude oil smells bad.

 

[bobbywalter]

that is subjective

 

[bobbywalter]

smells like money to me.....and i like money.

 

[Dirtman]

Most money doesn't smell great either... it's a dirty peice of paper that's been shoved in everyone's pants... I dont recommend sniffing it.

And pennies smell like blood to me.

Yeah, DNR kinda makes a frowny face for hunting deer with dogs...

 

[ExploreNW]

Yeah, don't use dogs for game mammals. Sheriff can shoot your dogs if you do. You'll be a happy bird hunter with the right dog though!

You can also use them to find wild grown organic pot, the stuff is apparently in high demand at Tesla HQ...

 

[Dirtman]

My dog barks at the mailman.
