I live in very rural America and have most of my life. I recently was fortunate enough to purchase a lightly used 2021 ev for under 14k after rebates. The car charges easily at home without added infrastructure. My only bad experience thus far was trying to use the public network of charging stations on a recent road trip. A majority of the city based ones didn't work or required multiple attempts to get hem to work And after the fact I've had stipend hours in phone calls getting incorrect charges addressed. The one without a hitch charge occurred in a tiny rural whear farming community with the charger being located at the local museum. Rural folks are indeed able to adapt. The thing is they are also practical.

We’ve passed the threshold for normalizing climate; we’ve already pumped too much energy into our atmosphere once contained in our Earth. Many species of flora and fauna are going to die. Most of our species will die. And that’s alright and we may recognize The American Dream caused this at some point. “Thanks for all the fish!”

Ahh...Hi Joel. Yes, I think you're right and I appreciate you pointing this out to me. I'm living in the city so I hadn't been getting this needed perspective.
