Journalists Tow Camper Behind Electric Truck, End in Stunning Failure When They Only Make it 85 Miles

According to Tesla’s website, the fastest charging option for Tesla vehicles is a Tesla supercharger. This appeared to be the type of chargers seen in Fix’s video.

These chargers can charge the vehicles up to 200 miles of range in 15 minutes. While that seems reasonably fast, it is much longer than it takes to fill up a car with gas.

Assuming there were about 20 vehicles waiting in line in the above video, the last car in line would have to wait five hours for each car in front of it to be charged. And that is just the fastest option.

Would you buy an electric car?
Yes: 2% (60 V**es)
No: 98% (3913 V**es)
There are only 35,000 superchargers currently available globally at this time, Tesla said on its website. Meanwhile, the American Petroleum Institute reported there are over 145,000 gas stations in the United States alone.

The relatively low number of superchargers is a main reason for the long lines electric car owners are forced to endure. If they are on the road away from home, they have no choice but to wait in these lines, no matter how long it takes.

In March, a Texas woman named Candace London Metz filmed a similar video of electric vehicles waiting to be charged, KTAL-TV reported.

Metz said she spoke to one woman in line who said it usually takes about 30 minutes to charge her vehicle. However, she said the chargers were taking about an hour to charge vehicles because they were overworked.

These are just two examples of a massive problem with electric vehicles in the United States, and it is not the only issue plaguing the EV industry.

In addition to charging woes, electric vehicle fires have proven to be extremely dangerous. An example of this fact happened in June, a Tesla that had been sitting at a wrecking yard in Sacramento, California, for three weeks burst into flames.

Firefighters attempted to put out the fire, but it continued reigniting in the battery compartment. Eventually, firefighters were forced to dig a pit for the car and fill it with water to extinguish the flame.

There is nothing inherently wrong with electric vehicles, and there may come a time when the United States is ready to t***sition to them full-time. With that said, the infrastructure to support this shift needs to be put in place first.

By pushing a shift to electric vehicles before taking the necessary steps to prepare for it, Biden is just causing more problems for the country.

The Model T Ford wasn’t popular…in the beginning. It was a novelty; a rich man’s “toy”. No roads, no gasoline, and nobody to repair them. But, progress wasn’t to be thwarted. After all, cities couldn’t bear the volume of horse sh!t much longer.

It has taken only one hundred years to advance to the next new thing…EVs. If there’s a lesson in history; the evolution to the “new thing” should take about half as long. I.e., the real practicality of EVs will take about fifty years.

Call me in 2072. I’ll be “in the market” for a brand new EV!

Don't wait for my call....in 2072 I'll have been my grave for several years and v****g Democrat....several times each e******n.

Yeh…..it’ll be some kind of record if I live that long, and if inflation stays at the current rate, that new EV cost over $2 million in fifty years (maybe more)!

Actually, pretty sure I v**ed Democrat twice in the last e******n because the two b****ts, we ordered (for absentee use), never arrived. I intentionally came home to v**e in person. Pretty sure that b****t went in the trash.

Me too but until then, I keep my gas powered vehicle.

Problem for you and me is: the l*****ts will “cut off” the gasoline supply….probably the “domestic use” supply. Of course, Biden is already attempting to cut off the use of gasoline, by making it cost prohibitive.

If Venezuela and the Saudis won’t supply oil, we don’t drill, and we sell the reserves to China….there’s going to have a serious oil shortage!

Biden doesn't know what is like to "WANT" for anything like the basics.
