Owning an electric car means that you also need to own a gas-powered vehicle as a backup.

we had electric school buses that wouldn’t start. now we have a HUGE heated garage and they go in 2 hours early to get everything warmed up. nothing like having tax money up the kazoo wasted.

A Tesla driving friend was making plans to meet up with a mutual friend for lunch. He admitted setting up the meeting place based on proximity to a charger.

What a way to live.

"Some fellow Tesla owners have even messaged me to see if I have found a solution. Unfortunately my answer is no." Domenick Nati told Fox Business.

I have the obvious solution for Domenick, but he won't like it.

If everything goes “green” then there will be no place to go to avoid freezing to death if it gets really cold.

The solution?

Buy a petroleum powered car.

But a downtown department store manager donated his reindeer from his Christmas petting zoo and they pulled the car with amazing stamina and speed.

I am amazed this one got past the propaganda machine. A lot of liberals are going be ticked. Now imagine it is zero or below zero. It is only a matter of time before people are found frozen to death on the side of the road in their EV’s.

To paraphrase Ettore Bugatti, who responded to a customer’s complaint that his Bugatti was difficult to start on cold days:

Surely sir, if you can afford my car, you can afford to heat your garage.

A Virginia radio personality said he had to cancel Christmas plans because his Tesla S electric car would not charge
Now you know what the "S" stands for.

Why didn’t he bring a portable heater to warm up the battery while he was charging?

..... In July I was stuck at the Canadian border for over 2hrs .... I almost felt bad for the EV owners waiting in line as they had to pull out of the line after waiting for 45 mins to an hour and drive back to a charging station to charge up ...

I have this lithium powered electronic lighter and I was initially confused when it wouldn’t light today. Took it inside out of the 40 degrees weather for a few minutes and it worked. Left it outside for a few minutes and same thing it wouldn’t light.
