From a report at the link below:
Everybody knows that electric cars are going to save the planet from climate change ... or something. Unlike regular cars, which run on gasoline and make all the polar bears cry as they sink into the sea, electric cars are powered by... um... magic? Mjölnir, the hammer of Thor? That must be how it works, or else owning an electric car would impose some sort of cost to the environment. And that can't be, or those guys wouldn't be so insufferably smug.
You know those intentional blackouts they're having in California to reduce the risk of wildfires? Well, guess what happens now?
Weeks can be a long wait if you’re looking at a Model 3 in your garage with a drained battery, no electrical power to charge it, and the closest grocery store with power is 80 miles away.
After the power has been out for a few days you look in your refrigerator and pick out some food that is the least spoiled and wonder why you emptied a savings account for that Tesla pitched to you by a smooth talking guy wearing a polka dot bow tie.
As you look around the neighborhood watching the gas powered cars go by you wonder how many polkadot bow ties that Tesla salesman can buy with the commission he made on your electric car purchase.
