I get that. But when buying a $60,000 vehicle, I just don't like the idea of HAVING to turn the climate control off or slow down to 63 MPH on a 75 speed limit because the vehicle and fueling infrastructure is insufficient.It's not like you don't have anything to do and bam you're empty....
It'll help when there's more 150kW+ charging stations though. Right now they're like 80-120 miles apart on my usual I-70/I-15 route. There's just little room for error on that if you find a strong headwind or something throws you off. If they were every 20-30 miles, you could just stop one sooner. But when they're this far apart, you're committed.
That's all secondary to the long charge times that would occur every trip though. Which is why we'll just drive the ICE most of the time on road trips (although we're going to do it once in the Mach-e just for the challenge).
