I can do that WHILE DRIVING, so I don't need to spend extra planning time. Once my charge drops to a level where I will need to charge soon, I just tap on the charger icon and it shows me all chargers nearby and when I tap on the chargers, I can tap on the food icon in the charger details and it will show all food options at that location. No long planning needed. Just a few taps on the screen and after checking with the family, we choose the charger we want to charge based on the food options we like. Yes, as I said, food options are much less than with a gas car. No doubt. I don't see that as a major issue as I'm not a difficult eater.

We go to the NASCAR race in Bristol, TN every year. It's ~8 hours of driving. We don't plan ANYTHING. As an example, last year we were in the middle of TN on I-26 and saw a sign advertising a local BBQ place in a small town several miles off the interstate at the next exit. We decided to try it and it was excellent. No planning. No clicking on a screen. I seriously doubt there were any chargers near the restaurant as it was a very tiny town. I don't remember if we filled up while there or not since we don't plan gas stops either. Our only rule for meals on a road trip is no fast food, no chain restaurants and no gas station food. YMMV.

If I'm going to a Restaurant or chain that I don't know, I always do my research. I check reviews as I don't want to end up at a place that sucks.
Most restaurants along the highway are usually major chains and you know what you get without doing any research.

And this is the best part of road trips. Admittedly I do less of it when I'm with the whole family, but many of my trips are just myself and a friend heading to race tracks around the country.

0 planning. Because we don't have to, nor do we want to. Usually it's in the truck which goes almost 600 miles on a tank. Fuel doesn't dictate stops. It happens all the time that we will decide to pick some local place to eat, like you, usually BBQ or something similar. The decision making process is about 10 seconds. "Hey, want to try it?" "Sure." Done.

I can't even begin to imagine being the type of person that would sit on my phone scouring the internet to look at reviews before going in. :rofl:



You don't want to potentially end up at a place "that sucks"... so you go to McDonalds, Taco Bell, and gas stations and remove all doubt. :rofl:

Everyone has different taste. McDonalds Bacon Egg and cheese sandwiches are great as are their hash browns. Wawa has the best coffee and their breakfast sizzlies are great too as are their burgers, paninis and hoagies. I eat at Wawa every morning and I'm not charging when eating there.
I eat there because I enjoy their food.

^^ Absolute bullshit.

Let EVs make it on their own or fail (we know which would actually happen).

THIS is the problem. The .gov absolutely manipulating the market with their $7,500 handout is already garbage. Anybody who thinks it's not a larger agenda is an absolute f**king moron.

Hey GSC3... Mr. "libertarian"... do you really not have a problem with this?
