What's the local pattern for EV calls in La Mesa?

Summer afternoons run about ten degrees hotter than the coast, and the grades home through Grossmont Hills chew range faster than the dash predicts. Central out-of-charge calls cluster around parking garages, a car parked a week at the airport or a hospital structure comes back to single digits.
Will my EV be damaged from running it to 0%?
Generally no, but it's hard on the battery. Modern EVs have a buffer below the displayed 0% to protect the cells from full discharge. Occasionally running to 0 won't kill the battery; making a habit of it will shorten its life. After we charge you, the car should behave normally.
Why not just tow me to a Supercharger?
Towing an EV is more complicated than a gas car. You usually need a flatbed, you can't tow most EVs with the drive wheels on the ground. Flatbed dispatch to a Supercharger can take 1 to 3 hours in San Diego. Our mobile charge usually gets you back on the road in under an hour.
