I've seen some videos recently. I can not believe how much it costs to charge one of these things. It seems to me it is actually more expensive than filling with gas. And it takes hours. No thanks.
These fast charger stations are way more expensive than charging at home. If I weren't charging for free off solar, I'd pay $0.08 per kWh, about $0.03 per mile. The Electrify America stations near me charge around $0.50 per kWh, raising the cost per mile to around $0.17. I only use these stations because my car came with two years of free charging.
On the other hand, though, a 6-7x markup on electricity is really good for business so they are adding new stations all the time.
You can't read apparently. If I weren't charging on solar, it would be $0.08 per kWh and I get 2.5-3 miles per kWh, averaging around $0.03 per mile. There's no way your pickup is even close to that efficient.
Your 630 miles per tank means nothing without a tank size. If you have a 30 gallon tank, that's like 21 mpg, at $3 a gallon, or $0.14 per mile. If the tank is bigger your efficiency is worse than that. Stop making shit up.

Of your car goes 300 miles per charge, that’s $75 per fill up at a fast charger
At .08 cents it’s $24
My truck gets 630 miles per tank so it’s cheaper to use gas, even at the 0.08 cent per mile price.

.17 x 300 miles is $54 Too much money. It should be $10.00 to fully charge.
I pay $80 per fill up on a 36 gallon tank. I get 630 miles out of it.
Wow. Hostile much? Acting quite a libtard.
My tank is 36 gallon.
Instead of acting like a douchebag, perhaps explain it in a nice way. I realize I got the math incorrectly.
