Yeah, same for me. Buying groceries or going to see a doctor is a 100+mile round trip for me. At a 240 mile range, it was doable for me. At around 205 miles, that's cutting it really close considering winters here can be very cold trimming the range. And while I know I can charge at home, chargers in the wild are still far and few between.
I still want one though. I'm very jealous of those can find them useful. The whole concept of being able to absolutely repair and change your base vehicle at home and when you want to is going to be a big selling point to many.
Yeah. I'm hoping it's a big success and after a couple model years all our supply issues with Trump's dumbass and AI and lack of tax incentives for EV will be different and they release one with a longer range. I want a 20 year vehicle (my Prius is about 20 and it's still going like a boss at nearly 300k miles) so ideally, with battery ware and such, I'd like one that would start with a 300 mile range. I'd expect that to get me 200 miles in the winter after 10 years of battery ware.
