We don't need as many charging stations today as gas stations. The number will ramp up with time as the number of EVs increase.

when it takes the same amount of time to charge an EV as it does to fill up a car with gas;

Is that really any issue? For most people, the majority of their charging will be over night at home.

When your neighborhood mechanic will work on the EV;

Reliability has ceased to be an issue for both ICE and EVs. EVs have lower maintenance than ICE vehicles.

When the battery system can last as long as a gas engine, which can be decades;

Same for EVs. There are many EVs with 300K miles.

When disposing an EV battery isn’t a hazardous waste issue;

Recycling of EV batteries is ramping up, the same as it did for gas engines. This isn't an issue, as much as you would like to make it so without any evidence.

When the EV is priced similar to a gas car;

Check out prices of current EVs.

When the countries electrical infrastructure can handle the hundreds of millions of EVs charging on a daily basis;

If all autos were replaced by EVs tomorrow, the amount of electric would need to increase by about 25%. We have about 30 years before this will happen.

When you drive an EV across country, you are not nervous as heck that you will get to the next charging station with chargers in working order and you don’t have to wait hours in line to charge your car;

Please provide evidence that this is a real issue.

Maybe my great great grand kids will be able to enjoy an EV.

Whatever.

If you don't want to buy an EV then fine, don't buy one. Nobody is forcing you, but stop making up nonsense.
