Next time you see her, ask her how the electricity is generated to supply her new car. Coal? Fossil fuels?
I hope she's not going far from home or has her routes mapped out to the nearest recharging stations. Hopefully the 2 or 3 stations won't be in use already. She does know it will take several hours to fully charge it, doesn't she?
And the batteries don't last forever. She'll probably need to replace them at some point and they're pretty pricey.
Oh, and does she know you have to dig up 50,000 lbs of dirt just to get enough lithium for one battery? The excavation equipment sure ain't running on batteries. 😂🤣😂
I did bring up some of that, just didn’t want it to get really argumentative. It’s going to be interesting if she ever gets the car. Idk how long it takes once you order one. They aren’t the most happy couple. My friend has been sharing a lot so I’m sure I’ll hear about it. All good points!!! Thanks.
Imagine being on the highway with a bunch of electric cars in the middle of winter and then someone up ahead has an accident that backs up traffic. What are you going to do when all of them run out of juice because they needed to use their heaters? You can't exactly whip out a can of gas to get them going again. You're going to need tow trucks for each one of them. It's going to be a nightmare.

You always know when some dumbass forgot to charge their car…,driving 20 mph when it’s wide open

Oh god I didn’t think about that one. Or in the summer when then use up their AC.
