How long does the battery last on your cell phone? Oh, the horrors! Sign me up for a POTS landline phone ASAP!

An EV is just like your phone. It takes a few seconds to plug it in every evening, and is fully charged when you're leaving in the morning. No need to stand out in the blitzenfreezin cold for 5 minutes breathing gasoline vapors once a week, touching slimy pump nozzles and watching/listening lame POS sales pitches from the fuel dispenser trying to lure you inside to buy more stuff.

I park my i3 outdoors, and come home from work after dark in the winter. Our EV charger is hanging on the side of the garage, and it doesn't take me more than 15-20 extra seconds every other evening to pop the charger door, remove the dust cap, and plug the charging plug into the car...even in the snow and pitch black.....
