Without doxing myself, from my hometown the nearest charging station is 30 miles away, that's not end of the world far its definitely feasible but its not good enough. Especially when there's gas stations everywhere. Charging stations need to be in way more places outside cities before they become appealing to folks living outside built up areas.
Nearest one to my hometown is about 3-4 hours out. I would have to take a plane and have a cousin come get me in her truck whenever I visited my family if I used an EV the tech has come a long way but the infrastructure just isn't always there as much as I hate that
