“I don’t have time to dally at recharge stations for 30 minutes at a time.”

Given that you can charge at home before you leave and after you return you may actually save time!

The recharge time issue as I stated it would mainly crop up on longer trips, or those effectively so. Camping trips could be particularly problematic, unless campgrounds really upgrade their electric hookups (which users presently often max out as it is) and all campgrounds have such - many my family go to do not. Then what? Drive around exploring in the day and at night, tell the squirrels to get to work?

An inexpensive used mid-size electric vehicle with a fresh battery pack as our 2nd car would make sense for my family: Trips to town, wifey to wifey’s job, lug daughter and her friends around (assuming “normal” ever returns), etc. However, the “inexpensive” part is not happening yet.
