[QUOTE="Fat Boss, post: 16623347, member: 122645"] The people who are most up in arms about it are the ones that for some reason or another can't get by on 300+ miles of range. That implies a LOT of driving and a LOT of driving involves going to the gas station a LOT. Let's say one goes to the gas station for ten minutes twice a week. That's 80 minutes a month and 960 minutes or 16 hours a year. That's an awful long time to spend at the gas station waiting to fill. I just find it ironic that the complain that one would have to spend time at a charger doesn't apply to spending time at the pump. A Tesla can fast charge that remaining 100 miles in short order. Much less than 45 minutes. I guess the moral of the story is don't be a broke dick that can only afford one vehicle. I'd never take an EV farther than a single charge would get me. I'd drive one of my other vehicles that day. The Shelby is great for trips to Vegas, even if I do stop for gas five times due to the speed at which it consumes gas on those Mexican highways between the Bay Area and there. [/QUOTE]
