Well I certainly do hope we can keep enough juice flowing to the country.
Energy is only part of our fossil fuel addictions sadly. The amount of fossil fuels used to produce even electric automobiles will in our life time become impractical. The times are a-changing.
The parts are manufactured in different countries (a lot of parts made of plastics) and then they have to be shipped overseas, usually, to manufacturing plants where they assemble the cars, and then they are again shipped over seas to various countries, then they are shipped over land by truck to car dealerships.
Of course we could make our own American made electric cars, but right now that's just not how the industry is set-up.
I don't know what the future holds, but I believe that having your own personal vehicle will someday be a luxury for the rich, while the middle class is stuck with more economical/environmental ways of travel.
