My EV gave me freedom from the pumps, but took away my freedom to roam
I have always loved road trips. It started in my childhood when every so often my dad would arrive home from work early on a Friday afternoon and holler up the stairs to my mom, “Pack up the car, Marsha! Let’s get out of town!”
My sister and I would be thrilled for the unexpected adventure, heading out from our home in Victoria to wherever was appealing — Washington state, the British Columbia Interior, the Rockies.
In the spring, I purchased a new electric Volkswagen ID.4, which has a range of more than 400 kilometres on a full charge, and thought this was the perfect opportunity for a road trip back to B.C. to move the rest of my belongings to Ontario.
EV’s work fine as city cars but even that won’t last if everyone buys one. There simply isn’t the infrastructure to support mass usage on the scale of ICE vehicles so bear in mind that seperating you from your vehicle is the end-game of the Totalitarian Green Scam.
I am hopeful even docile Canadians will revolt if that twit Trudeau attempts to ban their cars.
The “status symbol” value is sure to drop as the virtue signalers clue in to the fact that they have been lied to and ICE vehicles are much more “green” than EV’s.
I am grateful that my condo does not have the capacity to handle EV charging. I would not want one of these potential fire-bombs parked next to my car.
