Oh sweet. Apparently the nearest hydrogen fueling station near me is 2.8 miles away 😃 I remember around 2004 I was reading about & very much looking forward to hydrogen cars but they didn't exist yet, and I hadn't heard a thing about them since then until now. Why are these not publicized & more popular??? Or have I been living under a rock 😭

    They really became a lot less of a desirable option as EVs started to get better. EVs have a couple of downsides (weight, charge time) but pretty much everything else about EVs is easier. Hydrogen is a pain in the ass to store in a compressed state, the engines are for more complex than an electric motor, EV charging is easy and obviously far more available at this point, etc.
