My diesel is rated by the EPA at 45mpg (Highway).In fact it can get 53mpg at a steady 66mph.With a tank just under 15 gallons it has a range of 700+ miles.And I can "recharge" it in about 4 minutes at any one or 30,000 "recharging stations" coast-to-coast.

Until Teslas at least come close to those characteristics I'm not interested.Not even slightly.Not at *any* price!

A couple of months ago, I drove by the downtown of my old home town just for nostalgia. Near the abandoned Piggly Wiggly I noticed several posts. Upon closer examination they were Tesla charging stations.

I was more than a little bit surprised as DeFuniak Springs is only around 5000 population.

Probably is about the right distance from other stations.
