You must have gas stations conveniently placed on your route. I can't even imagine going to Vegas from LA without a horse and buggy currently

The last part felt a little mean-spirited in retrospect. But my intention was to point out that you're just describing a lack of infrastructure yet

Once we build this stuff it's *there for use* and just has the usual burdens of maintenance. Arguably less since we don't need to transport big trucks full of oil to it regularly

Sure, but complaining that someone is noticing the real infrastructure issues doesn’t mean they don’t exist right now?

Not everyone wants to bleed so they can be on the bleeding edge.

There is no lack of charging infrastructure between LA and LV.

If you were talking about LA to La Paz then there is a real concern about making it, but LA to LV is no problem at all.
