EV Quickie: EVs take the FUN out of EVERYTHING (including the ECLIPSE) | MGUY Australia

You know the media's hitting peak brainwashing when a line for EV charging is not an inconvenience but an opportunity to make friends. Perhaps it's like when you're house burns down but you chat with a friendly firemen afterwards.

Waiting in line and you can’t even use the radio, let alone the heater or air con.
What a bargain.

Range anxiety and a 40 vehicle queue….
What joy for our EVangelist friends.

Hilarious 😂 "it's like a community " that's one community I don't want to have anything to do with 😂

[jebes]

talk about positive spin. I've been shot, but it lowered by blood pressure ✌

Who doesn't want to spend a few hours of their weekend hanging around a convenience store parking lot? Heck, I go to the local gas station and just stand around the pumps talking to people, great way to fill the time.

The only supercharger I'm interested in is the one under the bonnet.

"Community of losers." Nailed it!

[rogerwilcojr]

"I don't even know how to put my car into neutral" speaks volumes.

lets not forget also that 20-30 minutes the solar panels lost their energy source

When I stopped for dinner on my drive to totality I noticed that 7 of 8 superchargers at a gas station next door to the restaurant I was at were in use. People just milling around talking to each other about whatever for who knows how long. I didn't look for a line. I wonder how fast those chargers were re-charging their cars. My car got over 400 miles on a single tank of gas and took 5 minutes to top off.

While waiting to charge, some owners dated, married, had kids and then divorced over range anxiety....it really is a wholesome community!

[JoeBManco]

Could you imagine how bad it would get if you were told to evacuate a coastal city due to a hurricane and an EV was your only option?

[kathym]

"It's great!?" Do these people have a mind of their own?

[Old-nf]

I can’t even count how many lifelong friendships I’ve made at gas stations in my lifetime. 😂

[johnslims]

EV's and their owners are becoming an endless source of amusement!😂

[askmaxim]

...39 EVs waited around 7 pm, 38 waited around 7:30 pm, 37 waited around 8 pm, 36...

In 2018, When Bob Lutz said on CNBC that EVs can work on predictable routes only, they called him an old Dinosaur. But, the old Dinosaur was right, because he was in reality.

I was so excited about the eclipse that I mowed the yard, and it was about the same thing as it was back in the 70s
