RetiredArmy :" More to push us into electric cars. I don’t have an extension cord that is any longer than 100 feet,
so I cannot drive one of those damned electric cars even to the store at the end of the road and that is .6 of a mile."

What to do if you are in a rented property and can't get an extension cord to reach your car ?
The next thing you know, the Bite-me administration will have us all using scooter and skateboards to get to work.

Rental properties?

Just pass more legislation making each unit be provided a suitable charging station. Costs the government nothing and the renter doesn’t pay more - only the greedy property owner (aka slum lord).

Problem solved simply by our all-knowing all wise leaders!!

At an apartment complex I would think that would be a code violation. At a minimum there would be tripping and fire hazards. If you live in a rented house with a garage or an outdoor outlet near the driveway, it is not a big deal. 120V/15A outlets only provide 4-5 miles of range per hour of charging at best.

Oh thank God I am retired, I cannot stay up on a skate board, so I won’t need one. Oh wait, I have to go to the stores and doctors. Dang. I guess I am going to have to ride my bicycle after all.
