you are the first person i have heard in the wild using the term ICE. Very progressive!How does it sound volume wise? Something neighbors (urban....since it looks like you aren't so urban) might get pissy about? Figure this very well might be my last ICE truck so considering since I have never had a nice exhaust I want this one and been eyeballing the AWE. Not expecting them all to share yours (and my smiles) but don't want to the be all scowly either
Wait wtf is ice
ICE = Internal Combustion Engine... its the new derogatory term the Electric car folk use for a good, old fashioned suck-bang-blow engine.
that is stupidICE = Internal Combustion Engine... its the new derogatory term the Electric car folk use for a good, old fashioned suck-bang-blow engine.
That's a good looking topper and a great looking truck. I looked at that but the lead time was even longer than the LEER which is why I went with the LEER
I thought there was one already…“Prius”?…that is stupid
lets find a derogatory term for the electric car
They're called AEVs, which is stupid enough all on its own.that is stupid

"Those people" have real issue with acronyms. Wonder when they just start compounding them and then put a + at the end to be all encompassing.
Too far??
AEV: All-Electric Vehicle. Run only on electricity, either from a battery (BEV) or a fuel cell (FCEV).
BEV: Battery Electric Vehicle. A PEV that uses only a battery and electric motor to power the EV. Current examples include the Nissan LEAF, the Chevrolet Bolt, or any of the Tesla models.
EV: A generic term for a vehicle that gets some or all of its power from an electric motor. Sometimes used to mean PEV, BEV, AEV, FCEV, and occasionally HEV.
FCEV: Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle. An AEV that is powered by a fuel cell rather than a battery. These are not covered in this resource kit, which addresses only PEVs.
HEV: Hybrid Electric Vehicle. These vehicles do not plug in, but have a large battery on board that is charged by the vehicle’s braking. The energy stored by this battery assists the ICE in moving the car, significantly improving the gas mileage. A current example is the Toyota Prius or Honda Accord Hybrid.
ICE: Internal Combustion Engine. Traditional gasoline and diesel cars and trucks use an internal combustion engine to convert fuel to the motion that moves the vehicle. Propane or compressed natural gas is used in some ICE vehicles as well.
PEV: Plug-in Electric Vehicle. An EV that plugs in to an external source to charge an on-board battery that provides the electricity for the electric motor. Some EVs, such as trolleys, subways, trains, and trolley buses, are powered by electricity from overhead wires or a track. FCEVs are powered by a fuel cell.
PHEV: Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle. PHEVs use both an ICE and an electric motor with a battery that recharges by plugging into an external source. Depending on its exact configuration, the PHEV’s battery can either assist the ICE, or fully power the vehicle until the battery has been discharged, at which time the vehicle continues to operate as an HEV. Current examples include the Toyota Prius Prime and the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid.
You forgot the Squish cycle. Unless you are proposing we create a new 3 cycle engine to compete with the EVs?ICE = Internal Combustion Engine... its the new derogatory term the Electric car folk use for a good, old fashioned suck-bang-blow engine.
