It takes me about 5 minutes to visit the restroom and buy a giant Dr. Pepper and a beef stick. That’s the length of time I will give a charging device to charge up from 5% to full. And I want to go 500 miles pulling a stock trailer before I need to recharge. Oh, and a battery needs to have a 10 year/100k useful life. And cost <5k to replace. Until then, they can keepI am a patient person - my friends and family always comment on it. But I just don't see waiting that long to be able to drive again. Just a few minutes at the gas pump is what I expect and want. And, bluntly, it's going to be a long time (IMHO) before charging stations and their vehicles make it to places like rural Alaska.
