He’s driving a fricking Nissan Leaf. That thing has the range of your average golf cart.
Seems perfect for high school kids, at least when the prices come down to earth.
But at least polar bears come up and hug him.
As the idiot who owns an EV.
So this winter in the Northeast EVs wil become plug and pray.
I wonder how long it would take him in January with battery capacity reduced by cold and electric heat needed to prevent the windows from icing over on the inside.
EVs are such a wonderful idea. I wonder what sort of pink smoke the FR EV fanboys will blow up peoples’ backsides about this if they even show up. “I get a thousand miles out of a charge in my magic EV”. Etc.
EV’s are useful for “around town” trips. Basically the wife gets the EV so she can get to the grocery store, the beauty parlor and the local mall. She can plug it in when she gets home so it’s fully charged for the morning, or the husband can plug it in once he gets home in his SUV and unplug it for her in the morning and store the cable in a safe place.
EVs have vastly different capabilities, just like regular cars. Comparing a Leaf to a Tesla is like comparing a Chevette to a Ferrari.
Heck yeah. Problem solved, just order the heat pump package. Why nobody thinks of these simple solutions I just can’t imagine.

Well, that’s it then. No more cars in Wyoming.
We’re going back to the horse or wagon!
Just silly that civilization is so far apart in the least populated state. Of all things!

You mean sort of like a golf cart?
We’ll just get everybody living in big apartment like block cells, er.. house type thingys and we’ll be fine.
And everybody breaks out in a Disney like song and and dance routine.
I want one of those shiny Cybertrucks. I have a reservation but it’s in the 900,000 range so I have time to save up for it.
I remember when my 1964 VW Bug was not operating correctly. Could not get above 40 miles per hour… not great on major Cali freeway…. Even in the slow lane.
“ You mean sort of like a golf cart?”
Absolutely.
My glorified golf cart is great for commuter driving, which is 80% of what I drive.
It will keep my gasoline vehicles in service longer, as short drives are hardest on them.
It’s very comfortable and has torque out the Ying Yang and cheap to drive.
But just as with hammers and screwdrivers, no tool is good for all jobs.
