You could drive from New York to la in a model three with about twelve 30 minute stops. Given that it's a multi day drive, you can even fold a charge or two into overnight parking. While that is more than a gas car, it's not horrible.
New York to Miami is about six stops. I would have to stop around the same amount of times in my relatively fuel efficient ice (30 mpg), though (some) of the stops would be significantly shorter.
Tesla cars have a route planner built into it that will send you to the fast chargers along the way.
Some of the other newer non Tesla EVs do the same thing. There's also a free app called a 'better route planner' that does this to for any car.
