However, to invoke your position to debate wheelcovers is so extreme that I'm sure the rest of us seem heathens to you.
The point is, that the aero wheel covers will increase range and therefore you will use less electricity for a given number of miles. IF that electricity you use is produced by fossil fuels, then less reliance on fossil fuels. There are other means to increase your range - driving at slower speeds (less than 75/80), using the most efficient LRR tires, 18" rims rather than 19", judicious use of accelerator and brakes, etc. If you use all of these strategies plus the aero wheel covers, you should be able to increase your range by 10 to 20%. Multiply that times >500K EV cars and you are looking at a SIGNIFICANT impact on reducing dependence on fossil fuels for electric generation. If promoting less reliance on fossil fuel is considered extreme, then I will proudly wear the label of extremist. TESLA is experimenting with utilizing solar panels at their SuperCharger stations which is a step in the right direction. And PV installation at private residences and public buildings is catching on like wildfire, especially here in the Southwest. Las Vegas is the perfect venue for mass PV adoption.
No, I don't consider you a heathen. We are just having a friendly discussion about some of the real issues confronting the world population. I applaud you for being an early adopter of the EV concept. You can't be a heathen if you drive an EV!
Rome was conquered one Roman at a time.
The more T3s you see with the aero wheel covers, the more accepting you will become of them, and I expect one day you will say, "they are growing on me and I plan to use them on my next long distance trip."
Hey, I'll make a deal with you
@Sportstick. Although I live about 3 miles from a SC, the next time you are in the Palm Springs area, I will give you free charging at my house produced by my Solar City panels, IF you have your aero wheel covers on! Deal?
