Or more likely all that will be needed is somebody willing to lend/rent
you a wall socket as you will probably have an emergency low power
battery charger and an extension cord in the car itself :)

Wall outlet charging:
120 VAC x 15 A x safety factor 0.8 = 1.44 kW instantaneous.
@ 15 hp/60 mph => 11.25 kW/60 mph => 0.1875 kw/mph
IOW every .1875/1.44 minutes (7.8 seconds) of charge time will take
you one mile.
Assuming 100% efficiency. I think.
Not bad.
