Totally, that's great
But I'm discussing the situation where you have 8h of pure movement to complete. Every stop is a burden. Currently fueling a gas car takes easily less than 10 minutes, and with 2 people both can use the restroom and prepare the car in 15, generously.
I'm not saying thats an every day thing. I'm just discussing the differences between ev and ice cars right now, regarding the pace of a long journey.
In my opinion, currently, the "perfect" garage would have an EV for local travel which is used regularly, and an ice car for long journeys.
The "perfect" choices, if available, would be ev in the garage, rent an ice car for long trips.
The "middle ground" I'm interested in personally is a hybrid, but I'm in no need of replacing my vehicles currently.
