My grandfather’s car
There is no excuse. Some people like to live on the edge. I know people with gas cars that don't fill up till is says empty.
Makes no sense to me. In an electric vehicles case it can also damage the battery. Make an extra stop along the way for 10 minutes, stretch your legs, get a coffee hit the restroom and go. The stress is not worth it. It is best to keep the battery between 20 - 80%. When you hit 20% look for a charger.
Obviously you don't drive an EV long distance. You NEVER "start looking" for a charger when your battery is 20%. I always figure out my next charger while I am charging. Can I leave at 75%? Do I need to go to 100%? What are my charging alternatives in case of snow, detours, etc.? Abetterrouteplanner.com is invaluable for this.
"There is no excuse" WTF? There are lots of places when Superchargers are widely spaced, and your destination is not along the Interstate.
