Yet another reason that people don't want to buy EV's. It takes 5 minutes to fill up a gas tank and there are gas stations all over the place.

>Given that a lack of public charging is turning many consumers off to EVs, according to multiple surveys, this is a major issue. Both Electrify America and EVgo said they are rapidly expanding their networks to, as EVgo's Rafalson put it, "skate ahead of the puck," trying to make sure there are enough chargers to meet future demand... "I think what you're seeing is demand for public fast charging is really skyrocketing," said Sara Rafalson, executive vice president for policy at EV charging company EVgo, "and I would say we've been really at an inflection point in the last year, year and a half, with demand...."

If I could buy one cheap that has at least a 150 mile range and I could charge it at home I would consider having one as the "errand runner". Otherwise, I have no need or want for one. I don't live in the extremely concentrated east or west and things like this are just not useful for someone like me, or most of the general population that "drives" as a whole.

Maybe that could work, and they should be super cheap used because repairs are so fucking expensive.

Other than that, could maybe use one on private land, if any of them could do what would be needed.

That's about all I think.

My other major problem with all of the EV shit are all of the government handouts for it. That $7k "rebate" on the EV is coming out of MY taxes. I do not agree with that one bit at all. Fuck all of those "rebates". That is just on the national level, some states also do it at the state level funded by state taxes. I DONT WANT TO PAY FOR YOUR SHITTY EV.

I am so tired of this shit. Maybe ill go be one of those crazy people that sues the government over having to pay taxes (spoiler, you don't have to and a lot of people have succeeded in court on those matters).
