[–] DeprecatedCompatV2@programming.dev 4 points 3 years ago (2 children) Do you have any range issues? Forget to charge it? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] aseth@lemmy.world 9 points 3 years ago When I still had a car, it was never an issue except on long road trips. You plug the car in every evening, and wake up with a "full tank". On long road trips, I charged during bathroom and lunch breaks, and did a little preplanning on the route. Still not a major issue. Ironically, I almost ran out of gas the next time I rented an ICE car, because I totally forgot that refueling was a thing you had to do. permalink fedilink source parent [–] mechoman444@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago I have to be very proactive about where super chargers are. I live in Georgia USA and there's a bunch of dead zones without chargers still. But there hasn't been any single time where I was unable to charge and I drive A LOT! I haven't forgotten to charge, at least not yet! What I have had an issue with is installing a home charger. Electricians have given me estimates estimates ranging from 2500 to 10,000. Like wtf! permalink fedilink source parent
