Given the navigation on Teslas it's hard to imagine that anyone would be stuck out like that.

My current average speed is around 35mph for most of my driving, let's say on a day when I'm heading somewhere on vacation and driving a lot it's more like 50? So, 5 hours of driving to use up all the range. It's be pretty difficult for me to drive 250 miles in five hours in any direction from home and not pass a supercharger or two, so another 30 minutes somewhere and I can get another 100-150 miles.

I'm sure there's lots of people who think that 400 miles of driving a day with almost no breaks is nothing, but I'm not one of them. Even on my worst case driving day 250 miles and one supercharger stop is going to be more than enough.

And what do I get in return? Nearly free fill-ups at home the rest of the year meaning I never have to stop at a gas station? Even if that's only 5 minutes a week, that seems pretty convenient.

I think people are just bad at noticing lots of small benefits and tend to focus on the potential for one big downside.
