West Texas down IH20 is not an issue with a Tesla or any NACS compatible EV. Tesla has Superchargers every 50 to 100 miles all down IH20 from Ft. Worth, Cisco, Abilene,Sweetwater,Big Spring,Midland, Pecos, Van Horn, then El Paso none is further than 100 miles from the other. I took my Model 3 to Midland only needed 15 min at the SC just east of Abilene to make Midland with SOC to spare once in Midland I L2 charge to 100% the first night in town for a meeting about SWD drilling. I never charged again I took it after four days back to Abilene SC and then right home to North Texas easy peasy I wanted to use the FSD and not a pay 3.89 for diesel didn’t need the truck this trip as it was a in town Midland trip not a rig trip.
For those wanting to look this shows all the Tesla SC as red pins and any 50kw or higher if you filter it.

I can find CCS chargers like that just about anywhere. But 50kW won’t charge in 15 minutes unless you’re stopping every 30 miles.
The states in question have already said they will not register cars bought out of state.
These states have already said they will not register cars bought in another state. I believe Ca already gets away with this with their special exemption carve out.
Really. So anyone moving there with an ICE must buy an EV? Or can they continue to keep the car with an out of state registration?
How do they handle tourists and interstate commerce?
Do you have a source for your assertion? There must be some exceptions or nuance.
New purchases . Existing cars can be registered until they no longer run, think Cuba.
You didn’t answer my questions.
I love it, with their short range cars they’ll be less likely to come to Texas. Not to mention maybe some states will outlaw electric vehicles to keep Californians out.
Good idea!
More gas for me.
“25 refrigerators.
That’s how much the additional electricity consumption per household would be if the average US home adopted electric vehicles (EVs).
Congressman Thomas Massie—an electrical engineer—revealed this information while discussing with Pete Buttigieg, the Secretary of Transportation, President Biden’s plan to have 50% of cars sold in the US be electric by 2030.
The current and future grid in most places will not be able to support each home running 25 refrigerators—not even close. Just look at California, where the grid is already buckling under the existing load.”

If you doubt it do your own research
LOL. You are making groundless assertions if you can’t cite a source. No credibility. The burden of proof is on you.
It would be if you mattered but you don’t
An empty drum makes the most noise.
