I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I’m wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

    Every 3 hours?

    New gas engines can drive for up to at least 8 hours depending on ascent and load without feuling up again. Theyve been getting really good at economizing. Just stop to go pee, stretch legs, take a nap.

      they compensate for better economy with smaller tanks in the cars I’ve seen. Though I’ll admit to not knowing all tanks.

      For health and safety reasons you should stop, stretch your legs, and take a nap. Unfortunately I know far too many people who are not doing that. Normally they get by with it, but there are many many road deaths every year because of things people normally get by with.
