Want to charge an EV? How much will it cost?

[1971demon]

Good idea! It's better to fill up, when you want to vs have to. I always get the bigger tank in my trucks.

Never had a hard time findin a gas station

I like to fill-up in states with cheaper fuel. Also, when towing, at 12 mpg, it will sneak up on you, the bladder tapping or the truck has hunger pains...

That doesn't surprise me, but out here the gas stations can be farther apart than your states back there in the east are wide.

Also, it's nice not to have to pull into the few there are any more often than necessary when pulling up to 38-foot trailers. Plus, being more able to pick where I get fuel has paid for that auxiliary tank - much nicer to fill all three tanks up where it costs maybe $0.80 per gallon less.

More Hellcat related, my gripe with the Challenger is its minuscule tank size. With another 10 or so gallons on board I wouldn't have to put gas in it every time I drive it. And did I mention that I hate having to stop?

Also will any of these EVs be usable in 50, 75, 100 years????

Great. Another 700lbs of fuel would be grand to cart around on a road course.

AND, Not stopping for 4-6 hours? BULLSHIT, unless you are monitoring your fluid intake & release scientifically, can empty that bladder 100% every time and have a on/off switch on those kidneys. Some of us know a lot about that.

I pick up mostly snacks. But it depends on what all I need. Sometimes they have some nice one-use tools!

50? The expected (per the marketing people, so take with a grain of salt) is 10 years. We've all heard of EVs that have already needed battery slab replacement so 50 years? No way. Not to mention, is your charger inside your attached garage? The manufacturers are telling you not to park an EV in an enclosed garage, so now it's outside and you know what effect cold has on batteries. And if it's outside, is your charging station on a post in your driveway? Or do you have an extension cord running out to it.

I'm limited by e85 stations and it gives me anxiety, couldn't imagine the charge anxiety with an EV. And there's far more e85 pumps than there are charging stations. Also, you fill in under 5 minutes and go on your way.... not wait hours to charge

Some of us have been “measured”, and/or know more than we need to. Dudes that piss twice during dinner, for the most gross example? Not right at all. More than six hours without? Not hydrated correct at all. Fix that too.

Quantity of fluid expelled and/or remaining after you think your done.

Smart. Piss b4 dinner and there is no way within the next 90-120 min you should again. Unless you got a problem.
