I'm surprised no one has mentioned the pick-ups as generators feature. I haven't gone so far as getting quotes, but standard pick-up plus installed gas generator may well be more expensive of an initial investment than just getting an EV. I'm not quite ready to jump in just yet, but it's a pretty good value if your looking at a truck anyway.
The potential for large scale adoption to alter the peak draw times for electricity is pretty real, but I would think one could solve a lot of that with some pretty simple software in the at home chargers to just automatically wait to start charging so I don't really see that is any kind of major obstacle. I do know from the monthly electrical co-op magazine that the WI electrical co-ops have already installed charging stations in very rural locations so it wouldn't be an issue for me going to my cabin in the middle of Mennonite country, so it seems like access is being addressed. I will say I was surprised that more of the travel plaza's along I94 haven't already gotten farther ahead on getting chargers installed or even the sit down restaurants it seemed pretty clear to me a few years ago that getting those installed would be good money makers to draw people in for that somewhat longer wait time.
