Metaphorical Fun
It’s nice to know that there are many decent people in our world, including people who have no reason to be decent to people who likely want to destroy their lives.
Having said that I’d be willing to bet that while the tourists whose electric car ran out of juice will see the decency of the men who helped them out, they’ll not see the irony of this moment and they’ll still continue to vote to screw those men into the ground, likely with the rationalisation that they’ll get jobs building solar panels or windmills.
“This just shows you coal miners are good people and will go out of their way to help anyone friend or foe. I’m honestly glad they ended up where they could get some help because they couldn’t get a tow truck to come and this is out in the middle of nowhere. one guy even dropped off a Friend of Coal license plate when he left to go home.“

We carry a 2Kw Honda Generator on the hitch of the mobile home for when the sun don’t shine enuf. perhaps EVs should make similar arrangements?

They’d need a 44 gallon drum of petrol for the little Honda!

You should invest in a bigger one and start selling your power to needy tourists in their EV’s.
Shit – just sit outside some charging station, and remember to charge more because time is money.

Why didn’t they just tow it?

See the link…
They couldn’t pull it because it was all plastic underneath and nothing to hook up to.

Maybe no dedicated toweye. But, it has suspension, plenty of components/arms to tow on for a short distance.
More ‘mileage’ to be had pushing it and why not. Makes good copy.
