There are a lot of Tesla superchargers and there is a whole infrastructure of electric chargers growing by the day.
If you google roadside charging, you will see it if is worth having an electric car where you live. If you charge at home, it feels kinda free. But no more Mr. Lube, Transmission, Muffler, Brakes etc. You save a shit pot in maintenance and down time.
My other car is a Fiat 500e for grocery getter and going downtown etc.
It is a good time to go electric.
BTW, as an example, you can drive from from Seattle to Los Angeles stopping 7 times to charge. Mostly twenty to thirty minute stops

That is interesting, thank you!
One more question... you mention brakes above, the car does not have brakes? How does it stop?
I cannot believe how quiet they are, that has to be hard to get use to driving... is there any change in sound when accelerating? I think the one thing I would miss is the rumble of the muffler.... the roar of the engine... it's the teenage gear head in me
