    Tell me you live near one of the coasts without telling me you live near one of the coasts.

    FWIW, there are plenty of places in the country where this is true. But once you get, say, a few hundred miles east of the Pacific Ocean, things can get significantly worse.

    I took a trip this morning that didn’t have a single charger above 50kw for a 196 mile stretch. We’ve got another semi-frequent road trip route that’s 260 miles between DCFC locations.

    I’m in favor of this in principle, and things are definitely getting better, but there are still places where charging to 100% is gonna be a requirement, especially in winters when many of those places overlap with “places with quite cold winters.”
