Hi. You are most welcome to my first ever blog. The purpose of this blog is very simple - to describe to you, the reader, my experience with my first ever electric car for exactly 365 days. Well actually, it will probably be 366 days given that next year is a leap year! (Go Feb 29!) I want to do this for two reasons. Firstly, I want people to know exactly what they are getting into if they consider going electric for their personal mode of transport. I, unfortunately am not entirely sure what is going to happen. But I am willing to take a leap of faith. Most people, however, are not. So this blog is for you.
The second reason I want to do this is to hopefully, promote and encourage the adoption of electric vehicles in Ireland, with a view to BEVs (Battery Electric Vehicles) becoming the dominant mode of personal private transport within my lifetime. This happens best when people are armed with the facts. There's no point in throwing out half truths or even ideal world scenarios. People want to know the facts. After that, they can make up their own minds. So that is what I promise to you here - No Half Truths, just the facts.
Of course, the problem with facts is they tend to be interpreted differently by different people. So no doubt my understanding of the facts will not agree with others. But I will try to be as impartial as I can, or at least as clear as I can about my own personal bias, so that you can be aware from where I am coming.
