^ Free is nice, but I think accessibility will be the biggest thing. Which they are making huge strides in. But the last time I had looked (about 9 months ago) there wasn't even one shown on their map for the Twin Cities. I see now there is one in Oakdale. For us, the wife couldn't own one because she heads to Fargo every once in awhile, and there are no charging stations in Fargo, nor between here and there. So that wouldn't work at all.

They are building more and more it seems, which I think is great, and I think continuing to building more of them will be key.

Also, I've started to wonder if there is going to be some sort of EV etiquette. Like "Hey I just drove here from Iowa, didn't have to pay a cent for gas! But now that I'm here I'm almost empty. Can I please hook up to your house extension cord and use your electric bill to 'fill me up', k thanks".

There's a destination charger in Fargo at a decent hotel, so it's possible, but obviously not for a day trip. I suppose when you're right down the proverbial street from the Bakken oil fields, the EV is not a popular mode of transport.
