While I am not anti EV, people (greenies & govt.) need to understand they are not for everyone and work in every situation. I read a similar story where the writer traveled from New Orleans to Chicago. They spent more time charging than they did sleeping.
I watched the news of the packed highways by people fleeing Hurricane Ian.
I wondered what would (will) happen if Just 50% of the vehicles were electric.
Will there be enough chargers to get people out of harms way?
I'm not opposed to electric vehicles. Like many, I don't like how they're being shoved down our throats. Hopefully they will have longer ranges in the near future.
At that point you leave it there to flood, short out and explode, call the insurance company ahead of time to get your place in line for the claim that will happen tomorrow and hop in your redneck neighbor’s F250 truck bed with a couple cases of Natty lite and a cooler full of ice and gtfo of town!
Our kid is in school in St Pete.
His 2 options were leave town, or stay. Since the storm changed paths we had him stay and had him go park his car in the 3rd floor of a downtown Tampa parking garage. Car didn’t even get rained on!
