Yup. I'd actually look at a plug-in hybrid. The repairs/maintenance would be worth it IMO.
Without *massive* advances, full electric and quick road trips basically become a thing of the past. At the very least getting from Calgary to Vancouver or Seattle in a single day sure dues. A layover in Coeur d'Alene just to charge sounds super fun. Lineups at the Petro west of Calgary already take 30 minutes on the weekends, and that's with a 5 minute fill-up...
