[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4064994, member: 26737"] No, we're not, because you're arguing against an argument I'm not making, despite an inartful comment above. I'm not in favor of tracking, nor do I think it's warranted for assessing a use tax on electric vehicles. Gasoline- and diesel-powered vehicles are already paying those taxes at the pump, so there's no reason to tax them again (although the tax and spend Republicans in OKC would probably love to double-dip like that). Maybe that's a tax that's charged annually when you renew the tag on your electric car based on stated mileage or maybe it's collected via a system that works through car chargers, but there's no need to do tracking to get the job done.
