Another solution might be just to tow the car to the destination, assuming it wasn't home. Remember the town hall meeting where they had fun with the idea that the regenerative braking would recharge the Roadster if you towed it rather than haul it on a flat bed truck?
So here's the scenario; You and the spouse are on your way to a the Academy Awards, or some such. But you forgot to plug in last night and run out of juice half way there. You call a tow truck operator and have it towed to about three blocks from the shindig. Now you should have just enough juice to make a grand arrival and make a great presentation out of plugging it in.
Meanwhile, the tow truck operator is stranded and baffled why towing such a little car burned so much gas.
Not exactly Carbon Neutral, but great fun.
