In western rural areas of the US, which use trucks heavily, there is no such thing as a reliable 150 mile typical day. And at the common 80-90 miles per hour, 150 miles is not a particularly onerous commute so that kind of routine travel is pretty common. Unfortunately, you have to allow for road closures that incur 100 mile detours in your plans — accidents, weather, etc. That has happened to me many times in places where there is no charging station for a very long distance.

Sure, for a city commute EV works great. If you routinely travel around the mountain west or similar, you’ll want an ICE if you value your safety. The variance in distance, travel time, and road conditions is quite high.

I have no frame of reference for miles and how far they are, however it sounds like you're saying that for most people - who live in suburbia and other high density areas - it's suitable. I'd agree.
