I see this coming and have seen it for a while now...............
Just wait till we're dependant on all electric and the power companies are going to wallop us with extremely high electric bills.
They'll say it's necessary because the power grid can't handle it. We'll be paying through the nose. And it will cost wayyyyyyyy more to run electric vehicles in the long run that any gas car. Anddddd, you won't even have a choice of competition. You won't be able to drive a bit and seek out another gas station like now. The electric company is usually spread out far and wide, so you won't be able to go anywhere else for a more competitive cost.
Ah, yes,,,,,,,,,,, they'll have this very well panned out. Oh and if the power goes out (like it does during high usage times; summer, etc), you'll be screwed as far as getting 'fueled up' in the electric cars.
Don't get me wrong, I really have a lot of affection for 'some' electric cars being on the road. But once it's mandated and we head toward 'most or all' cars being electric,,,,,,,, we'll all be slaves to the power company and their ever increasing costs. And that will affect ALL of our power costs (electric refridge, air condioning at home, basically every friggin' thing we use....) Then it's going to be expensive to just charge our phones.
