EVs are only really viable if you live in the city or the suburbs and have a consistent schedule. Out in rural communities or your schedule changes weekly? Not so much. Ford offering a free charging station installation with purchase of a new EV helps but only if you can afford a new one.

And I mean rural as in you travel a minimum of 30 minutes one way just to get groceries. Upwards of an hour to work.

I dont know anybody who lives in rural areas who needs more than 200 miles of range, and I know many who daily drive EVs. 1 hour to work would be fine driving an EV. Going to the next town over would be fine driving an EV. A long road trip to the city would require fast charging, but there's plenty of those.

Yeah I live like 45min from work and town and never have to charge outside of home unless I’m on a road trip.
