F--- that! In that weather 5 minutes filling up with gas is too long. I can't imagine 5 hours! Hope they purchase some "carbon offset" credits to make up for the ride home on the diesel powered flatbed.

I just posted in the EV thread - 87% of new car sales in Norway are EVs, it gets pretty cold there too ....... maybe its not the cars?

I'm sure the Sammi's there use snowmobiles with engines. And most EV are with the seaside population getting much milder weather similar to Juneau in Alaska. Let's not mingle actual conditions with any subtle false Norse imagery of being the baddest people on Earth.

Ah, the week the world learned about EV battery pre-conditioning. Put this one in the history books.
