In all seriousness, one of the reasons we got an EV and we usually take it on our long trips is because my wife likes to stop every 200 miles anyway and walk around to stretch her legs. With most of the fast chargers recharging in 15 minutes, that makes our charging stops correlate to our walk around stops.

To: Tell It Right
Heh, driving 500 miles with a van full of younger guys who have no idea what is in store for them in about 30 years is a situation that does its best to bruise my ego, but...it is all good natured, and if they are drinking beer, I know they are going to need to go, so...I can take a hit for the team on this.

They will rarely say (but have said):

"Thank GOD someone made us stop, I had to go so badly that porcelain was going to get chipped...but I didn't want to say anything..."

But the truth is, I don't care any more! No male ego. No shame. That is what advancing age will do for you!
