    I don't know the range of the EV with that charge so would take the gas as it easier/faster to extend range.
    How to educate customer-
    Depends on customer. No two people alike. Engage in polite conversation to see what they need educating on - maybe the salesman needs to be educated? Again, no two people alike, customer or salesperson.

    I answered your two questions, I'm curious, I have one for you-
    What is the real reason you are asking these two questions?
    Absolutely the best answer here

      Also, am still curious as to why those two questions- thought I was polite?
      See your post below from my other thread. Troll asked for help and you fell for it. For those that didn't know including me, 12345 means essentially that you agree with her/him. Her/him knows several people block her/him hence the cry for your help.

        Oh dear furrow. I was merely pointing out that you're confused between hyperthermia and hypothermia. I'm pretty sure you meant hypothermia. Regardless it's not like you have to stand outside in the cold while your ev charges. Sit in the car with the heater on. Can't do that at a filling station with gas.
        Don't blame me for questioning your arguments and call me an ass when you lose credibility like forage with bad grammar.
        In your post you should have written " conditions our winter "
        not "are".

          It does not have to be a spelling problem. It could be a comma placement that did not enter on the key stroke. Sorry, heart attack!

          Perhaps you should have considered optional equipment physically attached to an ice vehicle, if you are thinking with your head, or ahead. You could save a friend's life with the small cost of a defibrillator, instead of the expense of a Tesla model 3.

            Don’t be a chuck , you have some very good points with soil health. , just don’t be ignorant.
            Western Canada pioneered min till , nearly perfected zero till.
            we have literally showed the world how to farm efficiently. Absolutely there is no doubt . Yet constantly on here, there are side show clowns like yourself and chuck that constantly try to drag us down . It should be embarrassing to a few of you as we have literally set the standard for the world on efficiency of farming ffs ..
            And now you're going off on a min till zero till efficient farming tangent. What's with that?
            The point of this exercise in the original scenario I suggested was to highlight the significant difference in possible distances that could be travelled on an equivalent amount of stored energy.
            Gas ICE car only 20 % efficient at converting 8.9 kwh to travel maybe 12 miles
            Tesla on same amount of energy goes 40 miles, yes less in the cold but the ICE car range is also compromised.

              Statistics Canada reports that the average commuting distance for 93 per cent of car commuters is just 8 km each way ([url]https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/190225/dq190225a-eng.htm[/url]). Even those few drivers with longer commutes travel an average distance of 40 km each way, which is still easily handled by most EVs.​

                You are 40 miles away from the nearest hospital.
                You have access to two cars.
                One is a Honda civic, almost new, runs on the smell of an oil rag but only has 1 litre of gas (contains 8.9 kwh of energy) in it.
                The other is a Tesla model 3 also almost new but only has 8.9 kwh of charge.
                Which car do you take to the hospital and why?
                How would you educate your customer if you sold cars?
                I haven’t read everyone’s post but here is what I would do. Living on the farm the answer is simple. In less than 2 minutes I could put in enough gas to go the 40 miles(64 km) and then some. Charging the Tesla for 2 minutes in a typical level 2 charger would make little difference. Therefore I would take the Honda Civic!!!

                  When the average person goes to work in the morning and his EV has been charging all night how much of that electricity used during the night will have been provided by solar generation?! And what happens if you live in Chucks world where your EV has been providing stored energy into the “smart grid” over night and when you go to work the battery doesn’t have enough charge to get you there?! Sometimes progressives make me feel like the guy in the prison shower who bent over to grab the soap!

                    I think the answer that Austranada and Chuck2 would prefer is "Let your friend die. We have too many people in the world anyway."

                    Can't believe how many greenies use that as part of their mantra.

                        Call an ambulance. They will start treatment and use a defibrillator if your heart stops on the way. If the ambulance is delayed or a long way away you can meet it on road.

                        I know several people who have died in their 60s from heart attacks and there was no time to drive them anywhere.

                        Don't smoke at all or drink much, eat right, exercise, get annual checkups and your risk of heart disease and stroke will go away down. Then you wont likely need a rushed trip to the ER.

                          Well, I will admit, in a weak moment, I did something I shouldn't have.
                          In my defence, there was probably something said in a post that didn't sit right with me- I try to not let the keyboard get the better of me, but it did.
                          Also, I will point out, you have actually replied to two of my posts -but haven't answered my question.
