      Not in my town, but they’re not hard to find literally anywhere in the US

      I just want to emphasize how loud these can be for the unfamiliar as well. Like blaring into your ear while you pump. Also, some of the really loud ones are not synced pump to pump so you’ll get this shouting weird echo while at the pump. I think Tesla probably gave the gas stations a grant to put these things in. It seriously has contributed toward my motivation to go go electric for next car.

        Someone think of those poor speakers out there in the cold and spray some expanding foam into the speaker grills.
