Most chargers are at home. You can buy level 2 fast chargers now at Lowes or Home Depot for $699 that plug right into your stove or dryer wiring.

We lost power for 6 hours last night in the middle of the night, after everyone had gone to bed.

I checked my ICE automobile.

It still had a full charge of gasoline.

My neighbor's Tesla?

Not so much...

I live in hurricane land. Electricity out for a week is common with hurricanes.

Control of the means of production (energy) is the goal of the leftist Green Energy movement that is based on the global warming hoax. Control over the freedom to travel is a part of their goal. EV is easier to control than petroleum-based energy. Control over every aspect of life is the goal of the left.

Your comment about your neighbor’s Tesla is idiotic, sorry. How would losing power at home cause his Tesla to suddenly have a drained battery?

Exactly.

Thinking of all those New Englanders. After the blizzard, hundreds of thousands are without electricity.

The one with EV’s are going nowhere.
