DEPENDS ON THE CHARGING METHOD. LEVEL 2 AC CHARGERS PROVIDE 40-60M MILES PER HOUR OF CHARGING.

DC CHARGING IS MUCH FASTER. DC CHARGING IS ALSO NOT GOOD FOR THE BATTERY OVER EXTENDED PERIODS.

ON A ROAD TRIP, YOU WILL BE DC CHARGING. YOU WILL GET ABOUT 270ISH MILES OR SO OF CHARGING IN 45-50 MINS IIRC. SO EVERY 3.5-4 HRS YOU WILL CHARGE FOR AN HOUR. IT ADDS AN HOUR TO A 8.5 HOUR ROAD TRIP.

Accurate. Do this currently with my Tesla.

The Supercharging stations are usually located in spots where you can grab some grub and shyt. I have a home level 2 AC wall charger getting like 36 miles as well.

Gas stations will grow and expand to cater to electric road trippers. Instead of having 40 miles between gas stations that are basically just pumps and convenice items. it will be more like the full truck stops, with restaurants and shopping. I seen some with mini casino's in them outside of new orleans

no, the battery technology will be amazing by then.
hope so. stopping at a gas station takes 10 minutes and that's including going in to buy food and use the restroom. Adding an extra hour to roadtrip or even if you're just out and about in the city and have to recharge somewhere is going to be like a whole new part of life. :shaq2:

How do you like the Mach E?
Love it
Ford did a great job for it to be their first offering
I got the Premium AWD Extended Range, about 270 miles full charge
I get looks and compliments every time I go out because of that Mustang logo, genius move by Ford calling it a Mustang

i'd rather pay for 6 bucks of electricity vs 50 in gas. :yeshrug:

I watch Netflix on my screen in my car whiile it charges. :ld:

Time is literally money in this case.

If a niqqa offered me $40 cash to stop my trip and spend an hour I might turn that down.

The way I be feeling on trips I know I would rather keep it moving

Depends on what ya'll doing in that hour.

no homo, i'm serious. :dame::whoa:

for example, i could factor in an hour at dave and busters into a road no problem. Since charging stations don't need giant fuel tanks installed underground, Any business with a large enough parking lot can offer free charging if they want people to chill there for an hour while they wait,
