How the infrastructure prepares us for the future.
This may comes as a surprise to some but so far my experience with mostly public charging, given my very long distance commute, has been positive.
Most EV drivers seem to follow proper etiquette as is common of most self respecting minorities aware of their trailblazing importance and given some common sense I am able to find chargers and adjust to some constraints,
One thing EVs do is make you walk a bit and certainly contribute to your health in this sense too.
Another is the serenity that accompanies the drive. No more vibrations and none of the smells associated with the black goop from the ground.
The human mind can always adjust to a new reality, and sustainability as well as reliance on alternative energies that will only provide us a meager fraction of the extravagance oil did is embodied in cars like the i3.
Oil is like a treasure in the basement humanity has found and that stored millions of years of accumulated sunshine. Once gone we will need to make due with a very low energy per capita, so cars will have to last 50-100 years at least and be able to only use electricity provided in a very sporadic way.
This is the end goal. Even if thermonuclear fusion, always 50 years away, becomes somewhat operational.

Really enjoying your blog! Looking forward to reading more,,,,
ReplyDeleteThanks! I will update whenever time permits and spread the link... my goal is to show that having a BEV with decent range as a primary and sole vehicle is not only feasible but also way more satisfying than some preposterous black goomp from the ground burning contraption.
