In my humble opinion it is bad. Even if folks do the right thing for the
wrong reasons, they will eventually discover the truth. Evidence tends to
point to the truth. We don't want our truth sullied with lies. At the
end all that will be remembered is the lie.
The reason most folks are driving ICE vehicles today is largely because of
a similar scam perpetrated back at the turn of the last century.
Back then there were steam cars, gas cars and electric cars. The best
were the electrics, they were the simplest, cleanest, easiest to operate,
and with proper maintainance out-performed all the others. But there was
a company that perpetrated an investment scam and practically cornered the
market on EV companies. The biggest voice for car advocates back then was
the Horseless Carriage magazines, all of which tarred the EV with the
broad brush of the wicked scam artists. This did a lot to sway the
earliest car builders away from the electrics and into the gasoline
engines.
Tell the truth, the whole truth, and only the truth. Never allow a lie to
serve you, or you risk becomming dependant on that lie.

and all that. If sombody buys one and is told he must blead off the
electrons every 50 miles into his house , and the guy drives it everyday
,and keeps Mr. tilley busy . Is this so bad . If you could start a Lie

right place would this be so bad ?
