Pulled into an EA charger in Truckee today. Three of four were working, the spacing was tight, and there was a queue. Over the next 30 minutes I witnessed kindness and cordiality between perfect strangers. Pleasant and polite discussion. People sharing where they could, and graciously awaiting their turn.

I wish I wasn't so surprised by simple civility, but it made an impression. I'm sure there's an EV driver out there with a stick up their you-know-what but, at least in Truckee today, they were nowhere to be found.

Thanks to all y'all.

I have no proof - just a feeling - those that buy an EV have different view of the world and their fellow humans; not to mention their fellow earthlings of whatever type.

So glad to hear coming from another Californian. I think up there there is a different class of EV driver...
