EV Owner Forced to Trickle-Charge Tesla Using Wall Outlet at Gas Station

While there are many disadvantages to electric vehicles, advocates for EVs will spin faster than tires to try and emphasize the positives.

Spending less on gasoline purchases is presumed to outweigh the limitations and demands of operating under battery power. There are also dubious environmental benefit claims and 🏛️Progressive virtue signaling aspects linked to EV usage.

The desire to hype EV’s potentials led one “climate action advocate” to blog about how great it was to charge their EV from a normal exterior electrical outlet, even though it took all night to receive minimal increases for the battery power.

The activist was scientist Kathleen Goforth. She is described as an EV ambassador for Acterra, a 🌉San Francisco environmentalist non-profit. Goforth wrote about a recent EV road trip in Acterra’s blog, which is literally called “The Spin.”

In the post, Goforth writes about taking her Tesla Model Y around rural 🌴California. “We had been gone nine days and traveled nearly 1000 fossil fuel-free miles.”

Goforth and her husband traveled to the Carrizo Plain National Monument, a remote area in San Luis Obispo County. The region did not have services like food, gas stations or EV charging stations.

Goforth used internet resources in advance to design a route with charging stations along the way to and from the destination.
