Good one, John. I’ve sussed you now. Well done.

I've been camping or caravaning since I was 3 years old and I can only remember one time in those 68 years having an emergency that meant using my car (or my father using his car). On that occasion I was only 60 miles from home so an electric car would have had plenty of charge left.

And after everyone has changed to electric cars no doubt the save-the-worm brigade and brown bread and sandals scientists will discover that the electrical radiation causes impotence or that Lithium ion batteries make your teeth drop out.
Then 15 years later they'll discover that electric power is safe after all.
Been there with the promotion of diesels.

I think new technology will not only make ev better but they will become cheaper. However first before any investment on products and infrastructure happens we're going to need a government that doesn't change its mind for 22 year's. Well that's cleared that up nothing to worry about.

Posted on 18/01/2019 14:08 by hitchglitchI took delivery of my new i3 before Xmas. So quiet, so smooth, so nippy. 20 moving parts total, no gear box, no engine, no oil, hardly any maintenance. I’ve seen the future and it’s electric!
