Not having chargers was his fault. The wreck and the body shop wasn't the trucks fault. The lack of chargers and chargers not working wasn't the trucks fault. You don't buy an EV for road trips to anywhere, you have to plan things out. It's still frontier days. For driving back and forth short to moderate distances they should be great.

They are not the best road trip car but they do have their advantages. I've plugged up my ev at camp sites and slept in the car. It's great.
