Where to Plug in On The New York State Thruway
If you don't know someone who owns an electric car or what is also known as an EV, you will at some point. Even if it is not fully electric you may know someone who has a hybrid.
I am pretty sure I will always be a girl driving a car that consumes gas but hey you never know. My main reason for not switching is the fear of not being able to plug in. And don't even get me started about the idea of a plug at my house.
