[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone after they bought a tesla: my favorite is that I never have to go to a gas station.

Going to a gas station is like 5 minutes once a week even for heavy usage. 4 hours of your life for a year's usage. Meanwhile a couple of roadtrips and they are spending that much time waiting for it charge. Not to mention plugging in at home...

Until you go home and plug in overnight and it's ready to go in the morning. So awesome!

Great! Try taking it on a long highway trip without stopping several times an hour each time every few hundred miles. No thanks.[/quote]

You can always rent a gas powered car if you want to take a long road trip. EV’s are good for daily commuting. [/quote]

Along same lines but instead of renting bought a traditional gas-powered minivan that's the "haul kids and dog around town" vehicle, plenty of room in the back for fido and kids to change clothes between ECs and haul all the equipment and so on... as well as pack in luggage and have a more comfy ride/environment for long weekend road trips to neighboring states, etc. without to manage the logistical constraint of charging times/locations. Could substitute for a mid+ SUV if minivans rub your ego the wrong way, but we're more practical about function over style/status.

Smaller (non-Tesla) EV is wonderful and cheaper for commuting, running errands, and so on around town. This two-car combo is perfect for our family until/unless AVs are able to fill in some of these needs at some indeterminate point in the future and/or the kids become drivers themselves (still years down the road).[/quote]
