Default If you have a diesel car, look out.

I wish electrics had advanced where they had the same 700 mile range


You'll actually drive 700 miles without a stop? Even at 70 mph, that
is 10
hours solid driving. Most would expect to stop at least once in that time
for a comfort break and likely a meal. So could re-fuel then.

And if not doing a long journey silly to carry around a large amount of
fuel.


Do cars exist that will do 700 miles at 70MPH on one tank of fuel?

Cornwall and back without stopping (other to drop my friend off) is
something I do quite often. That's just over 700 miles round trip at say
80 MPH.


Are you built like a camel or do you have an attachment connected to
your willy?
