No, but I can fill my tank up in under 5 minutes, on a cloudy day or at night, and be on my merry way.
I read through some other freedom/off-grid statements below, and I get what you're saying. But as I said in my statement, the people who think they are saving the planet by driving one, are idiots. The mass raping of the earth, just to mine the materials to build these batteries, is horrendous, not to mention the 3rd world child labor shit-show. And I know I don't ever want to be around one, if something ever happens to those batteries - once they're compromised, and that chain reaction starts, it's going to burn until all those chemicals are consumed. They can't be extinguished with anything currently being carried around on fire trucks. I seriously hope none of you are in the thing if that ever happens, and you can't get the doors unlocked.
Ultimately, I don't think lithium ion batteries are the way to get away from burning gasoline. I seriously think HHO (separating hydrogen/oxygen from water) is the way to go, if it can be perfected, or improved upon, to where it's a lot more efficient in terms of energy being put into it vs what being generated. I can't remember the guy's name, but I believe he had it worked out in the '70s before they killed him.
If you and the others here, enjoy driving one, and you don't mind the charging time and risks involved, more power to you. You've spent your money as you saw fit, and that's the way it should be.
