ROTFLMAO!!! Thus be the price of virtue signaling and trying to screw the rest of us out of perfectly functional internal combustion automobiles.

The irony is that most EV owners will not be too inconvenienced as they have other vehicles (that aren't electric) to use in the meantime. Or they could always call for a ride with UBER or LYFT.

Most EV owners in my neighborhood have a BMW or Lexus next to the EV in their garages. These EV owners tend to be rather affluent and so they have options.

Frozen chargers? No problem. There's nothing to charge them with, anyway...

Wow. It is one thing to lose power more quickly, but not taking a charge at all is downright serious. I didn’t realize it was that bad.

Maximum Liberty- All choices for all people.
No mandates. No Tax breaks. Let ‘em compete in the market.

Battery EV’s are NOT for frigid weather.
They are NOT for everybody, in all circumstances.
Just like Diesel Crew Cab Dually Pickups, Prius’, or Minivans.

But, they can play a great role for some (IMHO many). Shorter commutes, all day local errand runs like dedicated delivery routes, or for me, lots of local trips with a great little stretch of highway to get the juices going.

Yes, even in 1974 people realized that batteries suffer in the cold. Some people in Chicago chose to forget.

this is why these idiots want to defeat “climate change” rather than admit their beloved creations are useless
