Sign up for daily news updates from CleanTechnica on email. Or follow us on Google News!. There is a popular belief that people who live in rural areas of America are not good candidates for electric cars. They drive too far, there aren’t enough EV chargers available to charge them when away from home, and they can’t tow a 6-stall horse trailer up and over the mountains on the way to the next rodeo. There is some truth to all three of those beliefs, but according to a recent report from Coltura, an organization that works to reduce the amount of gasoline American use every year, there are perfectly good reasons why rural drivers should consider an electric car. The most prominent reason is money — electric cars can save people a lot of it.

Chairman Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-PA) painted a depressing picture in his opening remarks. “Declining prices and cash receipts, escalating natural disasters, and increasing input costs have created a perfect storm that will compromise the foundation of our agricultural economy. We are living through the largest two-year decline in farm income in history,” said Thompson. “At the end of 2024, total farm sector debt will be the highest the U.S. has seen since at least 1970. Most farmers and ranchers, including those here with us today, are likely to be worse off financially by years’ end.”
