Lol I just drove 14 hours one way for thxgiving. Waiting 30+ min every 250 miles is a deal breaker.. I can gas and piss in less than ten min once every 400 miles. You'd add like 5 hours to that drive at least. Just waiting for charges.

People don’t want to hear stuff like that but it is a real disadvantage.

And I own an EV.

I mean, you just drove what, 800 miles in one day? Youre an extreme outlier, seeing as most people drive around 40.

Assuming 3 stops, you already waited around 30 min on that trip, but youre saying 90 makes it impossible for you?

The extra 1hr for charging vs gas makes your 14hr one way trip into a 15hr one way trip, and that's the unbearable part? 14hr is totally workable, 15hr is a deal breaker?

"Mom, I would love to do my normal 14hr drive, but now that i have an EV and its 15hrs, I just can't bear to do it?"
