You don't have to convince me; we agree on all the same points.I guess... but I'd at least be stopping for a drink or to use a restroom on a 4-5 hour drive--- and I'd be able to add significantly more charge than I needed to finish the trip in the short time that takes without adding any time whatsoever to the trip.
For marathoners who pee in Gatorade bottles or just hold it, sure, that's 5 wasted minutes I guess.... but they're still doing bad math.
It's 5-10 minutes a handful of times a year.
Versus the 5-10 minutes every week the Lexus GX wastes stopping at local gas stations all year the EV never has to do because you just plug it in at home in 5 seconds and it's "full" every morning.
But there are a lot of people in this world who objectively don't agree with us and their points are still valid, despite whatever logical reasoning we may have in retort.
(I should point out my wife's phone is literally always dead or under 20% battery, despite there being an abundance of charging cords in the house and cars. This behavior translates very poorly to EV's for her and I have plenty of friends who do the same. "Just plug it in" doesn't work for them )
