We sort of understand the 500 mile range IF we are factoring in ONLY charging to 80% i.e 400 miles. When you factor in how long it can take to simply register for a charger + charge time/outages/in use we get it. Not to mention cost. Versus 400 miles and then L2 charge at destination cheaply.

Having said all that... We also travel via car a lot. Older and wiser us stop whenever we want. It doesn't add that much time depending on what your stop purpose is. Zero shame stops to literally get fresh air, walking around to rehydrate, get a meal/snack and cut down on hangry driving.

here's the rub, cheap airline fares killed the American road trip for most people. remember car enthusiasts are edge cases. If I'm with a normie on a long road trip, oh they get hella antsy after about 300 miles. even those that do road trip, most of the time, they drive about 40 miles a day
