That means for any trip on an interstate, there have to be charging stations every few miles to ensure that people are stuck in the middle of nowhere high and dry.

You ain’t driving interstate.

Basically you would have to stop for lunch and recharge your vehicle, then take extra long bathroom breaks...

I can drive to Los Angeles/WeHo in about 4 hours from Gilroy on one tank of gas.

You would have to stop around Bakersfield and maybe grab a bite to eat at Harris Ranch and by the time you arrive in your electric vehicle I’ve ordered my meal and will be 1/2 way through it.

I know it’s not true everywhere but since the mid-1960s the interstates from the City of Detroit outward to the suburbs and beyond have been a series of canyons in which people have a singleminded goal of getting out of Detroit alive. They risk their lives to the NBA,NFL,MLB,casinos or concert venues, park close and then aim to get back home alive. Straight ahead for 8-12 miles or so. They do not hang around like some cities’ restaurant and club regions. For a large number of years Detroit was #1 or in the top 5 of murders, rapes and carjackings.

The late L. Brooks Patterson of adjoining Oakland County said “I think we should build a wall all along Eight Mile Road (Detroit’s city limits) and Detroit can keep their criminals on their side of the wall.”

The thought of stopping in one of the hollowed out abandoned neighborhoods with no open businesses such as a gas station or fast food place for 2-3 miles is not pleasant. Waiting on the freeway for help is a deadly enterprise.

One famous story was, after dozens of beatings of stranded drivers and the state police saying they were understaffed, two thugs beat and robbed a married couple in their 70s who were both disabled. One young thug said “Be sure to tell them we own Detroit, not their mayor. We own it.”

This admin is like the keystone cops... their priorities are all disconnected

- Shut down Covd ? - no cure cancer. Cure cancer ? no build charging stations.

Wonder what’s in the surprise box tomorrow

I want Butt Boy to actually DRIVE thru the West on I-80 & see what they are talking about.

From the Nevada border to the west side of Salt Lake City is 99 miles alone...NOTHING out there.

I-10 also

I-70 also

EVs are about the environment the same way muzzles and CoupFlu vaxxes are about public health.

Deep State doesn’t want us driving.

Or living outside cities.

Period.

EVs are fun, until the masses start using them, then it will be hell on Earth, which I suppose is the plan, the idea is to eliminate Personal Transportation.

And if you think the constantly changing chargers for your cellphone are a PITA, just wait until it starts happening for EVs.
