Texas Continues Its Attack On Electric Cars & Trucks — To Implement $200 Annual Fee On EVs
PublishedOy, Texas. … First, Texas decided to not allow people to buy Teslas in the state. It’s a long and complicated story, but the funny thing is that you still can’t go into a Tesla store and buy a Tesla in Texas, yet Tesla’s global headquarters is now located there and “Giga Texas” is set to become one of the largest EV factories in the world. Now, apparently to pay Tesla back a bit, Texas is going to slap a $200 annual fee on EV owners. There’s humor in there somewhere.
The Texas legislation isn’t fully in force yet, so there’s still time for a miracle — but let’s not count on one. The Texas state legislature passed the bill this week and it’s now on Governor Greg Abbott’s desk. Governor Abbott hasn’t exactly been a champion of progressive causes, or anything good ever. He’s been one of the most anti-democratic and anti-progress governors in recent memory.

Why is Texas barbecue the best in the nation? - Texas Wants to KnowWhile barbecue in other parts of the country focuses on pulled pork, ribs, or even sides, in Texas one menu item takes center stage -- brisket. Owner and pitmaster at Austin's Interstellar BBQ, John Bates explains how important brisket is to Texas culture. 'Texas barbecue is definitely built around a few key concepts,' he said. 'It's very much driven by offset smokers. Our style is typically very low and slow with a lot of smoke and clean flavors going through the pits. It's also built on mostly brisket. It's definitely the most important item in all Texas barbecue.' Pitmaster at Corkscrew BBQ in Spring, Will Buckman, discusses why he left his career in communications to open the restaurant, and Texas Monthly BBQ Editor Daniel Vaughn tells host Baylee Friday what to order if you want to get a feel for a barbecue restaurant.
