> drive 350 miles every month or so, and don't want to stop at a crowded charging station for an hour 1-2 times on the drive. An hour or 2? A good rule of thumb is needing to stop for about 20 mins every 2 hours of driving (conservative numbers). This might not even be extra time depending on how often you stop anyway. If you can charge at home, count the number of minutes you spend filling up your current vehicle every month. I spend less time waiting on my EV ( 0 minutes/month ) than I did filling up my diesel ( 20 minutes/month ). When you factor in the time that the auto-schedule defrost on my EV saves in the winter, I definitely save a lot of time compared to my old ICE. The fact that it costs about 1/4 of the cost per mile is great too.
