Thanks for elaborating. They have a VERY limited place, but a place for a select few nonetheless.
1. It's nice to wake up to a full "tank" by charging at home. I basically spent more total time in a year gassing up my ICE pickup back when it was my main transportation vehicle than I do charging my EV for a year at road-side chargers. Of course, that's including the 5-7 minute refuel I did with the ICE pickup once or twice per week even just for local driving, which I don't have to do with an EV for local driving.
2. Same for charging at a hotel (at least the hotels that have a complementary charger, like the ones that have a complementary breakfast).
3. They have zippy acceleration. For all the talk about EV's going through more tires from being heavier than ICE cars, I'd bet it's more from EV drivers stomping on the accelerator. LOL
Some bad things, though about EV's, even from our driving experiences (meaning even for those of us who live in a warm climate and have other reasons to be in favor of EV's).
A) You have to stop every 200 miles or so to charge. That's fine with my wife asking to stop every 200 miles anyway to walk around 10-15 minutes (which is how long it takes to charge the EV at a fast charger). But I'm sure whenever I take a trip without my wife (something I haven't done since we got the EV) I'll take the ICE pickup.
B) Trips in areas new to you since getting the EV have to be planned with chargers in mind, much like planning a trip with maps before GPS. Modern day EV forums and apps like Plugshare make that easy and give good tips by fellow EV owners (i.e. slow charging, or good charging and lighting even at night with a quick bite to eat across the street while charging, etc.). But I'd be lying if I said making a trip in an EV can be done as spontaneously as with an ICE car.
C) Some trips simply can't be done quickly in an EV (charging deserts where only slow chargers are present for hundreds of miles). I wouldn't get an EV as an only vehicle. Nor would I get an EV if areas like that are where you regularly drive to/through. Conversely, much of the east cost from north to south has a dense population of fast EV chargers (easy to do a road trip from Alabama to east Canada in an EV, especially since we don't go to Canada in the winter when it's too cold for our comfort and for EV performance).
