.....you mean you've heard of my method of moving disabled vehicles around too?

Of course, any EV owner paying attention to the battery levels would nearly never be in this predicament. Especially on a well traveled route.

Something must be said about how nice it'd be to have a tiny ICE engine under the hood to assist for those times when the battery goes out.
