Another fallacy to your argument is wha constitutes a day of travel. For me, is usually 600-800 miles. I’ve done 1000.

Say 3 tanks of gas at 7 minutes each. Total 21 minutes. M wife makes a sandwich ya I eat while driving.

The data in the article was as much as 35 minutes to charge enough to drive 100 miles. Using that argument one would waste four whole hours sitting and going nowhere.

Those things aren’t for long haul drivers. Full stop. If someone for whatever reason wants an EV and also wants to drive regularly on big road trips, they want a regular ICE instead or in addition.

It’d be interesting to see numbers on people’s real drives and how often they really do the road warrior runs. Last time I drove those 500, 600, etc. daily distances on a trip was 1999. Hated it. Not fun nor “vacation” at all, just tedious and tiring.
