We've also got a pint-size powerhouse in the form of Waev's new Tiger Li-Ion airport tug that can tow more than 60,000 lbs., all day, every day, for nearly $20,000 per year less than the diesel competition.

    On today's time-sensitive episode of Quick Charge , we revisit the idea that even a broken clock is right twice a day as we examine US President Donald Trump's takes on electric vehicles, range anxiety, highway road signs, and why he's absolutely right . The Donald and I don't see eye-to-eye too often, but when he called range anxiety a disease at a Las Vegas political rally last week, he hit on something wasn't just true – but which was at the very root of the range anxiety phenomenon : visibil

For what is nearly the tenth year in a row. GM is offering two new technologies that promise to make life easier for electric Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC drivers.
