I live in Wyoming, having been to Maine, yall have an amazing and beautiful state but your definition of bumfuck no where is lacking. I checked the EV map again the ENTIRE QUATER of the state I live in that doesn't have a single charger is where my family lives. I down south near Colorado for reasons I don't want to get into right now but I want to be able to actually visit my family without having to take a plane between the two airports in Wyoming.

yea looking at wyoming I can see there is defo a lack of EV stations, it looks like for southern wyoming the longest stretch is between rock springs and Lareme, but that's mostly if you lack the ability to use super chargers. I can see how it would be a pain to use an EV in that case, doable but it would stretch it a little further than i would be comfortable with as well. That being said you would never catch me driving 3 hours one way to visit someone anyway lmao

Plus, it's Wyoming. Famously the least densely populated state. That comes with some associated costs.

The benefits are great though, people leave you alone and living here is cheap

Couldn't pay me to live that far from an ocean. Or good internet.

My internet is pretty solid actually.
