You could rent a gas-powered car for the trip. But how often are you ever going to do that? Most of us make a trip like that rarely, or never; I have driven coast-to-coast exactly once in my life.

Greater demand will provide an economic incentive to invest in greater supply.

Also … it’s not like they are targeting 100% EV. So you just don’t buy an EV. It’s pretty simple.

You hear the same nonsense when it comes to riding bikes. There’s always some reason someone can’t ride bikes / drive an EV / walk more / whatever, and that means we shouldn’t make any changes ever. So dumb.
