I need a new car, and I really want to go full electric. I'm wondering if anyone regrets buying one? What are the downsides?

None of my relatives have a charging station.

If they have electricity, you can charge there. Portable chargers are a thing.

But, I wasn’t talking about a charging station in their house. I’d assume they also don’t have a gas station in their house. I’m talking about a public fast charging station. Something like Electrify America, ChargePoint, or Tesla Supercharger.

I don’t think you’re here to discuss, just to lick your own bum on what works for you explicitly.

Me and the millions of other people who own electric cars. What value have you added to this conversation? Do you even own an electric car? It sounds like you’re not talking from experience.

I can talk from experience as a car owner and as someone who should be interested enough to know if it’s viable enough for me.im allowed an opinion. My feedback for my needs is valid. Deal with it or cry more.
