I've spent less time charging my EV than I used to spend pumping gas. Well, almost

I’ve put 50,000 miles on my electric car, around half of them on long distance road trips. But when people ask, “Don’t those take a long time to charge?” my response is that I’ve spent less time waiting to charge than I used to spend filling up with gasoline.
