Now with 12 chargers to charge an electric car on a fast charge that takes 30 minutes, as has been mentioned earlier, how many cars can charge up in an hour? Far fewer than with gasoline. To charge the same number of electric cars you would need a whole lot of charging stations and 1/4 acre wouldn't even have enough space. It would take at least 20 acres of charging stations to even come close. How much does an acre of land cost in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles or any of the other large urban cities. Do you realize how much a charge would cost with those land prices? The belief in electric cars falls into the same category as Unicorns and Pixies.

Buccees has over a 100 pumps, wonder if they will add charging stations and if so how many?
