The problem is people who think there is a normal. There is no normal. Nature is random and people are born out of the randomness of nature. If you want to define something as normal than let it be embracing people as they were born instead of forcing them into an ideal.
But that's the thing. I don't want to have to plan all that. I just want to drive where I want to and have charging there without it eating into what I want to do.
I feel if I went somewhere on a long weekend that required more than five hours of driving to get there, I would be able to get more done with an ICE than with an EV.
It doesn't sound like either of you have to fit all your travel into weekends like I do. Yes if you have all the time in the world to travel I'm in sure it is fine. My wife only gets two weeks of vacation so we use that for the summer trip and everything else I have to fit into weekends.
And when you can go away from home without planning/stress about where you are going to charge next and for how long it will be. But right now people are more concerned about their immediate needs and getting through day to day life than where the fuel comes from. Also 60% of your gas comes from Canada, believe it or not.
