funny number

621 miles is 999.4 km, so 1000 km is probably what they're shooting for, but 621.3 miles doesn't sound good in an article.

I think you are giving the average yank too much credit

I qualified the statement to narrow it down to just American who would buy an EV. That eliminates a lot of ignorant folks.

True. I want to say I stand corrected, but I also want to throw shade still

Anyone want a little monosodium glutamate?
