Charging stops are just rest stops now

First stop out of Kansas City was the Buc-ee’s outside Springfield. Here’s the thing about charging on a road trip that I don’t think gets said enough: you were going to stop anyway. You need a bathroom. You want to stand up. You’re probably going to buy something you don’t need, and at a Buc-ee’s you definitely are. The car wants about twenty minutes. Those are the same twenty minutes. I plugged in, went inside, came back out, and it was ready before I was. I think that’s the whole argument, honestly. People picture themselves stranded somewhere watching a battery crawl up a percent at a time. What actually happens is you take the break you were already going to take and the car quietly fills up while you do it. Three free months of FSD if you order through my referral link, for whatever that is worth to you.
