Also, EV fueling stations will likely be more travel route oriented rather than fueling stations which are everywhere. On my current 40 mile one-way commute there are are over 50 different places I could by gas. and less than a dozen of them are along a major travel route. (I cross one Interstate, and one major state road where most these stations are).

Circle K is already testing EV stations at their stores. RaceTrac and QT are both in the planning stations. Buc-ees also already has some charging stations. I noticed the Georgia Welcome Center on I65 coming from Alabama also has a DCFC charger.
When I was in the research business, I found inflection points and transitions of particular interest. Shifting equilibria and the associated instability are fascinating. This one has my attention.

Interesting thing about the GA border welcome center. I don’t expect to see a charging station on public property in Texas - Ever. I’m waiting for the state legislature to pass a bill prohibiting EVs.
