I currently have a 130 mile range EV and my partner has an ICE vehicle. Long term we want both to be EV, but we're waiting due to road trips.

I wish the US had better passenger rail infrastructure so people traveling long distance didn't need to road trip.

I’d rather drive 10 hours than fly 2-3, and that would be the same for the train. Having something to keep me engaged during the travel is the only thing that keeps me from going insane. I can’t stand airplanes cause I’m bored within 20 minutes and can’t even stand up to stretch
