My thought exactly. But I won't get mine for a couple more days, so I'll have to wait to gloat.

Don't worry, when the power grid gets hacked you will be in the same boat........

We’ll just run generators. Oh wait….

Schadenfreude is not always a good thing.

I feel glad I have an ev when I switch it on in the garage and it does not pump out gas that would literally kill me if you do not exit the garage.

True, but the gas pumps will be down as well. A few years back after on of the hurricane we had same issue, between refineries and pipeline we were hunting fr gas and paid $5 for regular and just put in a few gallons to get me through the next day or so. The entire infrastructure is very weak, pipeline, electric, so on...

Yes, I'm glad, but not because of gas pipeline problems. Apart from the altruistic reasons (e.g. environment), selfishly I just love not having to ever go to a gas station or take the car in for oil changes and brake jobs. With my Leaf I took it in for a software update once in 10 years. The only other service was new tires and wiper blades. 99% of my charging was done at home.

Alas we will probably have to take ours in for updates at least once more …

I do not understand why Europe has ota and we do not at least have ota from our home networks ( or phone tether ).
