It's ok if u can't relate, different people and places have different needs. Where I live there are areas where if you don't fill your tank, you won't make it to the next fuel stop. And no, the trees don't have charging cables hanging off them. If you can do it that's awesome, but they don't work for people in rural cold climates quite yet! I'd love to have an "EV" hybrid thing with a smaller battery and a diesel on board generator, zero range anxiety and bonus points if the generator is an old mechanical diesel that can run veggie oil or used oil from my other shit boxes or various biofuels. Sure it won't be as clean as a true EV but I bet it would be more efficient than a gas car.
