The general consensus, as I understand it, ("I" meaning me in exclusivity with the exemption of all other known humans, and "understand" being exclusively my interpretation of data) for years has been the best way to maintain a fleet of vehicles is not miles driven but miles per dollar.

 The advent and reduced cost of GPS has proven that miles of usage is an inefficient and less accurate way to decide wear and tear on vehicles, and infrastructure.

 So electric cars in my opinion should be taxed by dollars per mile, which would require mileage reporting.  GPS would not be necessary as a vehicle could self-report its mileage when it is plugged into a reportable system.  

 Also there is the issue of the different methods of charging, for instance I charge all my electric vehicles by isolated solar.  Should I pay taxes on that and how should they be calculated?  The local electric company has zero cost to charge my vehicles.  

 But any that hit public roads, should have some charge for the wear and tear.  

 I bet this device wont be any better at knowing where you are than your phone or watch.

A phone I use has a little dot, which moves, showing exactly where one is.
And if I want, it even tells me to turn left or right.

Never failed yet.

Or are you saying the EV drivers uses do not want to be, 'tracked'.
Or is it they don't want to pay TAXES.

 I'm saying that humans already voluntarily carry devices that track everywhere those specific humans go.  

 So the EV car mileage recorder tracks where the vehicle goes, big deal, this is being done already.

Interesting you say:

MOST people know, anyone can buy a car/truck/MC/EV, and use it on your own property.
With NO Lic or Lic fees !
And the gas/etc you put in it to run, (ON personal property, not public roads), when you prove you paid 'Road Tax' on that fuel, you get that money back.

So the EV's, charged by your own solar panels, or plugged into your house.
A Odometer alone will not say, 'WHERE' those miles were.

One would need a, 'phone like' tracker.
To determine if those miles were on Private property, or on public road.

So when you say, a 'phone' tracker,
(STRONGLY Implying phone tracker's do NOT work well)
' this device wont be any better at knowing where you are than your phone '

(And it is well known that the system/programing that identifies where one is, works well)

Then say:
' humans already voluntarily carry devices that track everywhere  '
' big deal, this is being done already '


Which is it?
Can you pick one ?

Or will their be another dialog on why, AOC can not be talked about in a certain way,
And absolutely anything can be said about Palin ?

Nothing to do with 'degrading' political opposite women.

"...as usual you are  implying my words to mean what you want them to ..."

It has Everything to do with a, 'moderator', who 'says' is fair/equal, and has proven time after time is NOT.

And before the Spin comes.
Don't CARE, if a Moderator SAYS, Not this or that, depending on political view.
It is when a Moderator says, they are fair and equal, and are NOT.
