That assumes ALL EVs are Tesla Ys, "However, in extremely cold conditions, the draining rate can increase slightly higher and costs about 14-15% of the total battery percentage for 8 hours", and camp mode quits working once battery level gets down to 15%.
Because it always does...
I was thinking about this thread as I read about that. Also... I was 70 miles from home on Monday and had driven about 120 miles when I stopped for gas... only to find a widespread power outage. No big deal, I try not to let my tank get below 1/2, but it would have been different if I'd needed to plug in. I don't care what I drive as long as it gets me from point "A" to point "B"... yet even at 8$/gallon

20 years ago it was "hybrids", which were grossly overpriced yet believers were willing to support the technology and vote with their dollars. Once supply issues settle down I'm considering a Maverick, so that I can park my Colorado except when I need 4wd.
But it would have to be something besides that hideous orange in the link which G Hawkins posted... I would hate if I needed to take rattle cans to a brand new truck!
