F--- that! In that weather 5 minutes filling up with gas is too long. I can't imagine 5 hours! Hope they purchase some "carbon offset" credits to make up for the ride home on the diesel powered flatbed.

It don’t come easy.

5 hours…just a small inconvenience to save the world….right?
It’s not like this is a surprise.

I just posted in the EV thread - 87% of new car sales in Norway are EVs, it gets pretty cold there too ....... maybe its not the cars?

I'm sure the Sammi's there use snowmobiles with engines. And most EV are with the seaside population getting much milder weather similar to Juneau in Alaska. Let's not mingle actual conditions with any subtle false Norse imagery of being the baddest people on Earth.

Ah, the week the world learned about EV battery pre-conditioning. Put this one in the history books.

Wonder how many of those people are back at the dealership in the coming weeks to go back to a good old gas car? 😂😆🤣
