Hey there! So first you can find the supercharger map here, that area is heavily populated and you would easily find superchargers along the way and at the destination. You would only need to charge once on the way and probably top off close to your destination (depending on the Tesla model). Your daily would be no problem assuming you're always plugged in at home.

I don't have a non-ev and found I don't need it. My insurance was basically no different from my wrx from years ago. Tesla has the top rated safety of any vehicle on the market which helps.

Did that cover it?

Mostly. I appreciate your perspective as a Tesla owner. Our Accord will hit 200k trouble free miles this year's, but we know those days are numbered. We are more of a "use it until it no longer can be reasonably repaired in my driveway" sort of green household. My newest cars are 10yo and my oldest is 33yo. We wouldn't personally pick a Tesla so the charging infrastructure isn't as important as it would be largely a commuting appliance. There isn't presently an EV that can replace our CR-V. But I understand that I am the exception and I am excited for the future of EVs. Especially if solid state batteries can be made a practical option.
