For road trips, you will spend more time charging than it would take to fill the tank of a gas car. How often are you on road trips that are longer than the range of the car so it would need charging?
Also if you plan it right, with around 300 miles or so you can stop for a bathroom break / eat something…. I have never had an issue with the extra 30 minutes and don’t forget you also get all the other benefits of an electric car - better performance and less maintenance cost like oil changes
