No wake up call. People (lots) fear change. They cling to what they know until there’s nothing left to cling to and they are forced to let go. They’ll complain, rant and rave, lie, cheat and steal, then grudgingly accept because there is no choice.I wonder about how it all collapses, like what comes first, second...? Anyone for a thought experiment?
- Parts not available
- Nobody want's your used ICE
- Nobody want's your Hybrid
- Price of a barrel of oil drops from low demand
- Gas prices rise as refineries exit
- Gas stations close or convert to EV, no customers
Like what's the actual wakeup call that sets it in motion to where it's so obvious and the scramble happens in every home? When can I say to the people in our cul de sac... "I warned you."
How it goes down is simple; the old goes out of business. Slowly at first, but then picks up speed. The market for after after market parts actually grows and thrives and morphs as a long, long time passes, most everything else old implodes. One or two manage to pull their heads out of their bundt cakes just in the nick of time.
How did vinyl records, film camera, VHS/Beta/cassette/CD, tube TV, Atari, push button phones etc… businesses go. Like that, just louder.
@HG Wells nailed it with his dream ad. Look closely around you, that’s already happening.
