Serious question: for those of you that have an electric car, what are the best and worst things about it?

@austinkocher Good: never having to go to a gas station, no guilt about running the A/C while waiting to pick up my kids in the school parking lot, and less guilt about driving my kids around everywhere.

Bad: long distance trips are still a pain. Even when planning for stops, chargers can be dodgy.

@jlfischer @austinkocher How much does running the A/C while waiting affect your mileage?

@CivilityFan @austinkocher Not too much. If the meter in the car is right the A/C uses somewhere between 1-2 kW per hour.
