It's growing rapidly, so people with electric cars do not feel constrained.
On the side note, some gas stations are closed at night, but you really dont need anyone by electric plug. Just stop and plugin

I hope it didnt come out as charging is more convenient on the trip (though it is in some cases), and it does require a bit of planning
I'm just saying it became manageable now, and quickly improving
The point about gas stations closing is true but you can still get gas at many of them by just using a credit card.

Don't get me wrong I love the tech behind electric cars but the infrastructure isn't there yet for widespread consumption.

I can't go a day without seeing at least one Model S around here but when I visit my family 2 hours south, nada.
