I never said they don’t happen. I said it isn’t average to take one, and the average person is concerned about their ability to do something they’ll never do.

The average person doesn’t need hundreds of miles of range on a single charge assuming the charging infrastructure is there, and it’s getting there.

I’m not sure what your point is. You are in favour of wasting limited non-renewable resources because you personally take road trips?

"Never" is a strong word. People do need it every once in a while. You are taking the idea that people don't drive that much too far.

The point is that the convention BEV is not that desirable, and that people will never accept its limitations. The solution is simply producing another kind of zero emissions vehicle without this problem. That is something we can easily do now. The only opposition at this point seems to be BEV fanatics who have basically closed their minds to this fact in the same way ICE car fanatics closed their minds to EVs a decade ago.
