any know why the actress in the top pic, (Elizabeth Shue) replaced the original Marty Mc Fly's girlfriend. (Claudia Wells), in the lower picture... ???
sad fact....
Sadly, Claudia Wells had to turn down the offer to return as Jennifer because her mother (who was also her manager) was dying of breast cancer. This tragedy led to Elisabeth Shue being cast as Wells' replacement in the subsequent films.
many people never really saw the difference.
Did you tell him/her, “Well, the cold will do that to batteries.”?

Looks like ev batteries are not the only thing that shortens in cold weather 
No, the Lightning was a surprise for everyone. We are all roaring every day because it's been sub-zero for 4 days and he's now driving his (gas) jeep. Until it gets warmer. Everyone reading? Do we get what we've been fed?

Every time they gripe. I’d say , “Sucks to be you.”

I history lesson about electric cars from back in 1895-
"When November 28 arrived, it was greeted by two inches of snow and brisk wind, which whittled an already small field. That morning only six cars took off on an out-and back course from Chicago to Evanston, a race of 52.4 miles: the Duryea; three Benz cars (one sponsored by R.H. Macy’s department store in New York), and two electrics.
The tires of all six cars were wrapped in twine to improve traction. That didn’t do much for the electrics, whose batteries died almost immediately after the race began."

The first-ever U.S. car race was held 125 years ago on a cold and windy day in Chicago. Only six cars started and two finished ... barely, as it turns out.

i can "see" electric vehicles being viable but well into the future, not right now, or by 2035 when gasoline vehicles cannot be sold anymore.I history lesson about electric cars from back in 1895-

the tech is here, but it is not 100% yet, and pushing for that 2035 year deadline, mistakes and miscalculations are happening.
in the meantime, if enough dummies would STOP buying them and force our elected officials to push back the 2035 deadline, maybe this nonsense will end.
another thing too, there are more countries that pollute the air, water, land, more than advanced countries like us, and others ever do...what's being done there..???
will they ever go all electric, being as poor as they are..???
no...so there will still be pollution, that in time, circles around the globe, to us.

Pollution of air, ground and water is why american companies do business on foreign lands! Our small country will never be able to do enough, but get stuck with tougher restrictions by both parties!
