I don’t think you need to play ignorant, here. Refueling is significantly faster than recharging and you’re well aware of that fact.

  It is faster. But that doesn't mean you can't drive thousands of miles in an EV. That statement is just as ignorant. My average road trip charging stop is 10-15 minutes.

    Fair enough, though my understanding after watching at least (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BfxUiF58Co https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BfxUiF58Co - 8-Bit Guy warning), planning your route becomes important whereas with ICE, it's an after-thought as long as you get to where you want to go. And I get charging stations are becoming more common/convenient. It just doesn't work for me and where I live (there is one non-Tesla charger in town), though my next car will be an HEV.

      It does require a bit of planning. The better EVs have this all built into their nav systems, Tesla is the gold standard there. Tesla opening their charging network to other brands is going to improve the charging situation a lot in the US. EVs definitely aren’t for everyone yet, but people calling them junk or thinking they have to charge for hours to go 100 miles are pretty far off the mark.
