In almost 2 years, I have done nothing different but plug in when I get home (No need to do complex differential equations to figure out my charging needs). My wife's car first, then move the cable over to my car. I drive a LOT more than her, so mine usually need 2.5 hrs to get back to 80% (vs 45 mins to an hour for her car).
My Saturday mornings are much better (I would go gas up both cars), and my Wednesday commute home is much better (I would have to fill up my car). Not to mention my 1-2 month oil changes that I no longer have to either do myself or fight to get an appointment.
So, if I have to add 1-6 additional hours on a trip my net gain is immeasurable (I guess I could calculate it out, but I have no interest, I'm winning).
I was in the same boat as the other nay sayers before I realized that I was holding onto ICE vehicles for the 1-2 trips per year I might do, instead of enjoying the benefits of EV every day.
