Make your own opinion of electric vehicles.
The secretary of energy blocked the charging station and probably others because they didn’t want to spend more time charging than driving . What does that tell you ?
It tells ME that we are in a period of rapid development just like about 1900 when the world was going from horse and buggies to InFernal Combustion Engine vehicles.
