problem is draw a 200 mile circle around where you are located. Is there a charging station there? anywhere? on a road you likely travel? probably but I guarantee there is a gas station with 20 miles anywhere along that circle.
Probably a bad example. I have hundreds of DCFC locations in that 200 mile circle…..
I’m in Cali b. They are everywhere. There is literally 12 EV go next to a Starbucks by my house. maybe 1 min drive. 
Many of us don't. until Ford struck a deal with Tesla I couldn't make a 400 mile drive to Houston without driving an extra 180 miles to get to a charger.
That was 2023. Much has changed since then….. Looks like over 150 DCFC’s in Houston alone.
problem isn't in Houston it''s the charging desert north of Houston on US 59.
If your state has bad charging move out of Montana or other state that has an extremely low population it’s not worth putting the infrastructure in for the few people that drive EV in those states. I’m not knocking it’s a beautiful place, but it has like 1 million people in the entire state.
That's less of a desert than a few places I've been to. Granted, most of those stations listed are small stations.
if you driven it or examined each one on ABRP you'd understand. if you haven't, well, trust me. if it were not for Telsa I'd be taking my wife's ICE car. by design, I still have that option. my overall point is that the LightHardly a desert IMO. Pretty good options over 120 miles of 59.
You gotta help me understand this one as I don’t get it. I’ve mapped two trips on 59 with my Lightning and I’m struggling to see what the issue is…..
The biggest issue is essentially all of the stations along 59 are small (less than 4 chargers), so good possibility of being busy or broken.
I mean starting at or before Houston doesn’t seem to make a difference. Still plenty of good options on this route. I mean, it’s not SoCal but it’s far from a charging desert.
