[QUOTE="Brownsocks, post: 5132185, member: 68379"] Electric charge times limit travel to the extreme, and charger wait times will only increase with each electric vehicle that hits the road. 100% charge is bad for the batteries, so you immediately lose 20% of your range on the daily, and level 3 chargers cannot be used daily. The truck with its tow charge loss will be even worse for anyone who uses them for work, or toy hauling, and don't get me started on charge degradation in cold weather. Bottom line: middle class America is too instant gratification for current electric tech, and few can afford to buy vehicles simply for road trips, or hauling. Who has time to stop for at least a 1/2 hour every 200 miles (or less depending on charger locations) of a road trip? [/QUOTE]
