Disclaimer: never owned an EV or even a hybrid and I work in big nasty oil. Will probably buy a prius prime when car market returns to sanity
they actually are fantastic road trip vehicles.

costs 10% what a gas car costs to drive per day, and let elon do the driving.

everyone i know with teslas road trips them all over the place. thats half the point. cheap, easy, relaxing road tripping.
