I’m curious. What does Tesla charge you exactly to recharge at one of those stations? Bet it ain’t free.

Or if it is, it won’t be once 100 million of these things are tooling around.

Good point. Currently the roads are paid for by gas and diesel taxes per gallon. Some kind of tax on electricity used to charge a vehicle will have to happen to maintain the roads or no one is going anywhere unless they figure out a way to make cars hover instead of roll on wheels. I think that one will take a long time to happen; like centuries unless some aliens visit and give us the tech.

We will probably wonder why we didn't think of it since it will probably be something relatively simple like controlling a magnetic field under the vehicle that doesn't even take power to maintain or very little if it does. Look how simple the wheel and fire are and how long it took humans to discover them then use them in all the different ways we do.

Now that I think about it, once we eliminate wheels and the need to overcome the friction it generates to move the vehicle, all kinds of doors open up but also problems to solve like how to move the vehicle and just as important; how to stop it.
