A

uh I too, attended tesla. I was really impressed that this company is investing so much not only.

A

In our county, but throughout the country- and they put up eight of these supercharged stations,.

A

At harris teeter- and I thought maybe it was standard, but they talking to the people who.

A

Owned them or that people that were owned, the cars there, they said they supercharged, they can plug.

A

Their car in and within 20 minutes supercharge their battery full charge where at home it might.

A

Take them three to four hours, with the normal charge that you that you have at your home.

A

So I'm impressed that this company is investing throughout the country, but then the same thing.

A

It's a marketing thing for them to sell more vehicles. There's no doubt about it. That's not.

A

The reason why they're doing that, but I'm sure that cost them quite a bit of money to do that.

A

And our local uh smeco is investing with us to put in, I think, we're putting eight total in.

A

Throughout the county, and so uh there's no doubt in my mind that we're heading for that kind of.

A

Electric vehicles everywhere the way it's going and uh I don't own one yet, but I'd be interested.

A

Buying one, but of course the one I looked at this one guy had a, I think, the xl, which was.

A

The biggest most expensive vehicle there was 92 000, but I was impressed when he at the end. He.

A

Pulled out his phone pressed the button and the car started up and pulled out of his parking.

A

Spot towards him, he stopped it opened all. The windows opened the top up the two doors spung open.

A

The two gold doors at the rear sprung up, and I said you got to became all with this phone.

A

Just absolutely amazing: the technology that's already there in these cars.

A

And he that particular vehicle has a range of with one charge 420 miles. That's unbelievable,.

A

That the kind of stories now exist and it's only getting better so I I would say that that kind.

A

Of thing is not it's not long. Of course, some of them have been out. We, my family's, been a.

A

User of toyotas and we've had a prius for some time now and I think the third generation now and.

A

They're a hybrid, but they still get about 60 to 65 miles to the gallon and and they do get up to.

A

Speed them slow sometimes, but you know, we've we've gotten the pretty high speed for those those.

A

Things kind of, but anyway it's the time. It's going to happen. There's no doubt that uh we're in that.

A

Framework now and eventually we're going to be getting more and more into electric vehicles.

A

My heart out to the manikins and sub district, I say this man was a stepping stone for all the.

A

Developments down there as far as the uh our our various uh nonprofits in seventh district and I'm.

A

Sorry for the great loss last week was a very hot week. We were in the 90s and this week it's going.

A

To be high, 80s 90s so be careful with your self, with your pets and everything else, and definitely.

A

The the stands are wide open with all the different vegetables and everything and locally.

A

With me, it's just unbelievable all the things that are available now and so do shop, local and.

A

Do the best you can to help our local farmers as we continue to expand our markets? uh It's great to.

A

Eat some fresh corn and especially the tomatoes. I love, I love tomatoes, so the fresh tomatoes are on.
