No one should get an EV without first doing his homework on both his driving habits (both local driving and road trip driving) and real world results of various EV's in various climates (particularly the climate he drives in most).
An EV works for my wife and me because we need 2 cars anyway (having both an EV and an ICE gives us options), live in a warm climate, charge at home for local driving and the first leg of a trip, drive enough miles for the gas savings to add up (26K miles per year), virtually all of the road trips we make have plenty of fast chargers to use (in other words it's rare a road trip would require driving the ICE instead of the EV), and on trips my wife always asks to stop every 200 miles and walk around for 10-15 minutes anyway (which is conducive to charging needs and speeds in the EV on trips).
If that doesn't sound like someone else's driving habits then he probably shouldn't get an EV.
A buddy of mine goes to his cabin all the time, 250 miles away. Charges at home, drives 150 miles to a rapid charger and stops for 15 minutes and shops. Then goes the other 100 miles to the marina and plugs his car into 110 volt. Gets on his boat to go to his cabin (on a small island) and is there for a minimum of 3 days, enough for his car to fully charge again.
He said over the last year and a half the car has cost him about 3 cents a mile to run.
I travel once a year on a trip that takes about 12 hours one way. Most of the time I stop once for gas which takes about 10 to 15 minutes.
