Texas is a pretty big state. If you live somewhere in the middle, it's gonna be a drive with a friend (to drive car 1 back), a hotel stay, and a drive back, across an area that may not have much charging facilities, across a state that is legislatively hostile to non-oil energy.

Or you could contract with a car carrier to bring your car back.

Ah, a new line of business for hotshot truckers: carry it out of state, wait a decent interval, and carry it back in to where it's going.

Smoove move.
