Seems like it could get annoying if one wants a full charge but has to plan up to 4 days in advance, compared to a 10 minute gas station run.

It sounds like you might not own an EV.

The #1 thing (in my opinion) that makes a difference in how easy it is to own an EV is whether you have a driveway or predictable parking spot overnight. Then you just stop thinking about this sort of stuff, ever.

In fact, since I got an EV (I have a two-car garage), I have forgotten to even check my gas car's fuel levels and have driven it near empty a handful of times, I simply forget to even check.

And as others have said, unless you're driving 250mi a day, a regular commute, you can recharge your car on a wall outlet. It does about 12 miles of range per hour, you can easily get about 100 miles of range every night.

What do you need to "plan"? Plug it in when you get home, and it'll be charged by the morning.

That's when you drive to the nearest fast-charging station, where you can charge from nearly empty to full in <10 minutes.

It really doesn’t. Public chargers can take care of the oddball issues.

Once you have one of these things, the problems that sound insurmountable turn out to be not much.
