          Surprised there is no talk of standard form-factor battery for #EV. People would pay premium for instant swap to full "tank". Convenience.

          About equal shares of abandonment, repurposing as random retail, and conversion to charging station, I suspect.

          Cleaning+charging stations. Ridesharing cars with no drivers will get as dirty as rental cars and require cleaning between rides.

          7-11s. Because SLURPEES!! Seriously though, they will always be a road/car based hub or EV stations. It's the snacks that make the money.

          Gas is just a draw for retail sales. Don't expect charge stations-most commutes are local and charged at home. Expect return of the drive-in

          Easy to want transport stops that act as charging stations but also great to utilize the roof area for future VTOL takeoff/landing pads

          Theyre typically corner spots. Make them vr-cades. Or vertical farms.

          They close all the time now due to changing traffic patterns. We'll just quit building new ones.

          We would actually need to expand 'gas' stations. Electrics take much longer to charge, more 'pumps' needed. Home charging can't replace.
