I rented a Mustang Mach-E a few months ago knowing full well that I would be driving from Houston, to Austin, to Dallas, and back to Houston over the course of a week and a half.

Each of those legs is greater than the range of a Mach-E, and I had no range anxiety. None of my hotels had EV charging.

I did, however, learn how needlessly complicated EV driving on travel is. There's plenty of charging stations but you really need to be aware of what type and speed and how many are available, what's nearby to do, etc.

However, it's also worth considering that road-trips are wildly different and usually much less frequent than your daily routine or errands about town. Being able to charge at home and knowing that you can charge at work or at the supermarket, or where the EV street parking is downtown, makes a big difference, I'm sure.

What was also weird was that in Texas it seemed like the EV spots at rest stations or stores were intentionally in terrible places far away from entrances. Here in SE MA & RI, EV drivers get some of the best spaces. Like a special incentive for driving an EV.

All in all I really enjoyed driving it. Our next car will be an EV, I'm sure, but I'm in no rush to replace either of our cars right now.
