Comment on Fear Mongering About Range Anxiety Has To Stop — CT Governor Calls Out EV Opponents

This is only accurate if you are being as stubborn as possible

I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean.

With the right adapter, literally any EV can charge at a Tesla station.

That’s incorrect. Currently there are only a handful of stations that support this and most of them are located on the opposite side of the country from me.

The only way it makes sense is if you’re intentionally constraining things to the most unfavorable. You’re ignoring charge stations, ignoring that EV adapters exist, ignoring portable chargers.

Currently there are only a handful of stations that support this and most of them are located on the opposite side of the country from me.

The adapters I’m talking about are something you just throw in your trunk and pull out when you need them. They are “universal” and don’t require support on the charger side. You just buy one for your specific car.

    What you’re hallucinating is that those do anything today:
