So I started a new job and unfortunately have to commute nearly 100 Miles everyday. Does anybody own an electric car or have any experience with it? Looking to find out some information I can't get at the dealership.

Buy a very good fire extinguisher and know how to use it.@payneed.
 
Hydrogen fuel cells still seem like the better option if they develop that more. Since it still allows for refueling in a few minutes as you would with gas vs charging for much longer even on a quick charge station.
 
This definitely sounds like something I won't hear at the dealership.

That's because your common fire extinguisher won't do much good if the batteries are on fire. But there's not really any more risk of fire than driving around with 30 gallons of gasoline in the fuel tank. Electric cars are not just spontaneously combusting like that.
