Re: More on EVs from a guy trying to sell them

Saw a video today by two guys driving a Tesla around the country. When they got to a motel one night, the instrumentation said they had 28 miles of range left. But the next the morning the number was down to 13. On their way to a charging station just a few miles away, that number rapidly fell into the low single digits. When they got to the station one of them said, based on how fast the number was dropping, they had at least 50 feet of range to spare!
