There are a lot more electric vehicle owners in Alabama these days lining up to charge up.
Joshua Purdue has only been a Tesla owner for a year.
"Since I got my Tesla, I know five people that have a Tesla and always stop and ask me questions," Purdue said.
When asked why he switched from driving a Land Rover to a Tesla, his answer was simple.
"I got tired of paying for gas,” Purdue said.
