    Anyone who complains about charging time needs to see a doctor to get their bowels checked. Marathoning a road trip with zero time allowed at all to use the bathroom can’t be healthy.

      So what if I never have to stop for gas on my daily commute. The one time a year I need to drive 500 miles will take 45 minutes longer.

        But I like having to go to price buddy to find gas that’s 10 cents a gallon cheaper and drive 15 miles out of my way to save $3

        Hah! The total amount of time saved is rarely factored in.

        I maintain that very little extra time is taken when roadtripping since I’m not some maniac who’s trying to shave 3 mins off of my arrival time on a 12hr drive.

        I leave at 4am, stop around 5-6am for a coffee and snack, again at 8-9am for breakfast, 11a-1pm for a lunch, 3-4pm for a “oh god, my legs needs a fucking break” walk, and 5-7pm for dinner.

        4 of 5 times the car is ready to go well before my food comes out or by time everyone is back in the car ready to go.
