I would much rather it be full when I leave home or work every day. That much more convenient than having to go someplace specific to fill up.

You must not have a job or need to do much more than commute a couple miles. I might think an EV is OK for short trips around town, but it doesn't work for real work that requires long distance and hauling.

I have had various EVs since 2013 and have put hundreds of thousands of miles on them since then. It’s not 2010 where charging takes half a day and is impossible to find for road trips.

I don't argue for short trips. Do you tow a trailer or carry equipment / tools? Do you travel for more than 5 hours in a time critical manner?

I travel back and forth from Boston to Toronto in an EV taking about ten hours and as many dollars in fuel.
