Our last raod trip was 3400 miles and we stipped at several national parks and historic sites along the way. Many did not have fast chargers. Our van can pump 300 miles per minute at a gas station. Since it is a van we carry healthy snacks and drinks with us. It gets 540 to 580 miles per tank so we can stop when convenient. Another point is there are no ev minivans and a minivan is an awesome people mover for efficiency (30mpg average on the trip) and volume. We had 4 people and luggage for two weeks plus snacks and 2 coolers in the vehicle. Our prior trip was to my late brother in law's funeral and had to haul stuff in the van plus tow a uhaul trailer with 2 motorcycles and tools. Would have been a long trip in an ev truck stopping every 100 miles for 45 minutes or so on the way home.
