    Is an electric vehicle really the best choice for you if you live in the mountains? I’m pro-electric vehicle but the thing about them is they really shine in denser areas where everything is close by. Unless your remote mountain region also has an adequate amount of superchargers but I feel like I probably wouldn’t.

      Absolutely. You can easily create electricity on a remote mountain. Creating gasoline… that’s not really possible. You have to pay a fortune for someone to deliver it (or worse, go get it yourself). You can’t get gasoline delivered in bulk either - common ethanol blended gasoline can spoil in just two months and wherever you’re buying it from might have already stored it for a month or more.

      Gas prices in back country areas are often double or quadruple what people pay in the city and living there also means driving a lot more per week. Electricity on the other hand is practically free if you produce it yourself (small scale hydro for example can cost a couple thousand dollars for reliable continuous power and if you’re in the mountains then you probably have that option).
