But if you can't charge where you park, then things require a lot more thought. And even if you can charge where you park, you still need to make sure that you actually do that on a regular basis - which requires attention to fueling on a near-daily basis that ICE owners don't have to deal.

I understand, even agree with your logic in not thinking EVs are appropriate for you. But I have to say you are very, very over concerned about some of the issues, and Syke’s most recent upthread post is spot on. (Maybe read it again?)

For instance: I can charge in my garage. I rarely charge more than once a week, and while I still glance at the “fuel gauge” (there has to be a better term) it’s probably about the same as I did with a gas car. However, it is a huge convenience to be able to plug-in in my garage rather than drive to a filling station (while there are many, we frequented just two 99% of the time.)

Story time: I bought the EV because I loved the styling and was finally tired of my 1994 Infiniti, so I bit the bullet. Yes, I had *severe* range anxiety, which in the first six months decreased by 90%, and has continued to abate since. Which is not to say it is gone entirely; I am aware of the *inconvenience* of having to charge on the road compared to a gas nozzle, but it has mostly receded almost to the point of “air pressure in tires” or “windshield washer fluid” kind of thing.

I would just note that you keep saying “on a near daily basis” and “requires a lot more thought” and it isn’t like that. (OK, it’s a tiny bit like that - and in your case without the ability to charge at home it would be different.) But several EV owners have tried to disabuse you of the idea of “how hard it is to monitor” and haven’t convinced you yet. Trust me, we’ll keep trying, because we know - and you don’t.

[Note: the “range” issue, while overstated, is still real. We made sure we still had an ICE car when I got my EV. (2 actually, counting my beater van. Mrs. Goofy has a hybrid.) And I’m looking at a Christmas present gift of a “Sloth Encouter” that’s about 90 minutes away - which (round trip) is just at the range limit and it's rural, so there’s little opportunity to recharge. So there’s that.]
