If you were about to say "the gas station has a fossil-fueled backup generator" then guess what? The EV owner can have one of those too and "sustain" just fine.  |
Many, including myself keep 55gal drums of various fuels to support vehicles, equipment, performance vehicles, marine engines etc.
Some "round here" even have, gasp, in-ground fuel tanks with pumps that can be manually operated if need be.
I have a couple decent electric bikes (ones a Sur ron) we ride on the trails. Fairly decent range if cruizing. But I also own a couple dual sports ie enduro's with desert tanks for extended range. Which do you think I prefer on an excursion further than 15mi off the property or under any extreme conditions?
For heavy snow I'd seriously avoid an electric snowmobile or electric tractor lol for pulling someone out of the ditch. YMMV
