While I have taken road trips in the past I still had to stop for gas every so often as the Javelin only had a 312 mile range. I did run out of gas at night (stuck gauge or sender) at one point, fortunately I had just passed a rural motel about a half mile back to phone for a truck to bring out a gallon. This past decade, although I can drive all day with the TR7, I stop every 100 to 200 miles for a stretch break and to refresh the mind. I don't drive interstates (unless I have to) because on a road trip I don't want to see the road, I want to see the interesting stops on the way and interstates are just boring drives. With car club drives (which can be up to 3,000 miles) there are older people which usually means every hour or two (depending on how much coffee they had at breakfast) for pit stops. I would imagine with small kids would be about the same. Most EVs would be just fine. If you have to do some planning, that only makes for a more interesting drive. If it's the destination rather than the journey, well, that's what air lines are for.
