Unless I'm missing something, this is not a great value proposition on the EV charging stations...$20 gets you more than five gallons of gas, which gets most new cars 160-200+ miles, for a stop that takes a lot less than 20 minutes. With that math, they're not drawing me in to their business. I'll continue charging at home, and taking my ICE for rare longer trips.

I think the draw for the fast food franchisees is the ROI - $20 for a 20 minute charge certainly would go a long way toward paying for the cost of installation, yes? Not so great for customers, but they're banking on the "I just need a quick boost" crowd to not do the math.
