Still touchy tonight?

[Roccus]

Yup!

There’s an image of that in the story. Extension cord going from shack to EV.

[Elsie]

That’s less than one fill-up these days.

True, but I can go about 500 miles on a fillup

[Chode]

don’t need to put it on a dyno to do that...

Sprint cars vs Lemans

“Sprint cars vs Lemans”

Family sedan versus muscle car.

You don’t sit in the car. You go shopping or to a restaurant and/or movie.

How about those unexpected drives, like trying to avoid the giant 50+ mile long slinky out of town and you have to get some place? Oh wait, I must take in a movie and go shopping while my electric appliance charges!

Nice plan. Well thought out!

[TexasGator]

“How about those unexpected drives, like trying to avoid the giant 50+ mile long slinky out of town and you have to get some place?”

No problem. Just charge a couple of more hours while sleeping.

[dragnet2]

I’m talking after work.

[TexasGator]

“I’m talking after work.”

No problem. Just charge a couple of more hours while sleeping.

[dragnet2]

I said unexpected trips out of town...Get it right.

Btw, this is how I see you responding while trying to deal with all the issues and inconveniences these electrical appliance vehicles will cause. They will likely create very negative consequences in every direction, while clearly restricting/limiting our freedom of movement.

[TexasGator]

“I said unexpected trips out of town...Get it right.”

I did. No problem. Just charge a couple of more hours while sleeping.

[Bob434]

LOL-

[Bob434]

you know- charge while sleeping, except of course when the grid fails to keep up with demand- for hours, maybe days-

[dragnet2]

I can see the restrictions now.

“”You can only charge on even or odd days, and your smart meters will signal if you fail to comply”. Or you’ll be allotted only so much electrical power in a 24 hour period. Do not exceed it!

[Bob434]

and to make matters worse- California just banned gas and fossil fuel heaters- so everyone must transition to electric- increasing the demand for electricity in a state that is already woefully behind the curve in supplying it- just wait till they demand electric vehicles only- Gee, won’t that be a barrel of fun?

Typical liberal insensitive nonsense.

I do very little of those activities. Doing so would simply drive up the cost of fueling my electric car.

I won't want to shop. I won't want to nap. I would want to perform the necessary activity in minimal time and then move on with my life.

You can't seem to understand that a wasted 45 minutes-1 hour or worse, 2 or 3 hours matters to people. It matters a lot.

[Ex gun maker.]

You missed People hate Musk/Tesla for their lobbying efforts to ban ICE cars.
That would be me.

[HeadOn]

Love it.

[HeadOn]

I know these things. But THOSE cars were standing still...

My GT has 400+ mile range. Call me back when they can fully recharge in 5 minutes. They’ll probably get there, but as of now, I’ll revv my engine at them...
