I wouldn't go as far as to say that, it depends on what trips and where you live.Agreed with everything @DeaneG wrote.
If charging, especially on road trips, is one of your concern, go with a Tesla.
Trust me, if you saw the line of cars and the pain people went through at CCS charging station during last Thanksgiving traveling, you'll will get pain.I wouldn't go as far as to say that, it depends on what trips and where you live.
Thanksgiving travel charging had long wait times. 1 hour wait on Sunday before Thanksgiving with 2/9 chargers down. 2 hour wait on Sunday after Thanksgiving with 3/6 chargers down.Trust me, if you saw the line of cars and the pain people went through at CCS charging station during last Thanksgiving traveling, you'll will get pain.
I waited 1hr in Redding last Sunday. It was the first time I had to wait so long but on the bright side Lucid Air charged much faster than the other car that was at the same charging station and offered more range than others' cars.Trust me, if you saw the line of cars and the pain people went through at CCS charging station during last Thanksgiving traveling, you'll will get pain.

After 13 months and 15000 miles with a 2000 mile cross country trip and zero charging problems I encourage prospective owners to focus on the multiple amazing attributes of the AGT. I agree with everything that @DeaneG related.Agreed with everything @DeaneG wrote.

Agree with you - especially in the Midwest. Just an example, one place I was at today had 4 EA Chargers and there was a wait. Across the street there were 12 Tesla Chargers and only one Tesla. At least in our area, EA is very sporadic and not reliable. If time is a premium and you travel, you definitely have to consider the charging network. If mostly charge at home, then no biggie.Agreed with everything @DeaneG wrote.

I was just about to type this.We've taken our Lucid and our other CCS EV on several ~1000-mile road trips and had a great time. IMO the possibility of occasional CCS hassle is worth the tradeoff to be able to drive a better car every day. And this will be completely moot within 12-18 months as more than $5 billion is deployed into CCS infrastructure, and as Tesla opens up to other automakers.
Funny that we use the word tradeoff when talking about EV cars. What decision in life is not?. IMO the possibility of occasional CCS hassle is worth the tradeoff to be able to drive a better car every day.
