According to the EIA IES stats last I looked global peak oil hit in 2018. So Hubbert and his mid-90's estimate wasn't off by more than a couple of decades. But who cares? Solutions are here, local gasoline is < $2.00/gal.
EVs blowing out the door with huge discounts, a fraction of the fuel costs and near zero maintenance? I say let those devoted to liquid fuels just keep paying through the nose for liquid fuels as punishment.
13k miles on mine and....I've rotated the tires twice (both freebies), and am averaging approximately 1.3 cents/mile for electrons. Peak oil? Well...might need to change the tranny gear lube in another 50,000 miles....couple quarts. If global peak oil currently at the 8 year mark isn't delivering much in the way of results, well, then I doubt prices for the gear oil will be very high even a couple years from now.
