[QUOTE="Hirschkopf, post: 3989870, member: 50724"] After my first road-trip in an EV, I agree with Jestik. The family and I picked up a 2023 Tesla Model Y two weeks ago and just finished a 1000+ mile drive to San Antonio, including exploring El Paso. If we drove straight back to Phoenix, we’d have to charge about 8 times for 25 to 40 minutes. Fewer stops might be possible, but better safe than sorry. On this trip, each charge was an opportunity to get in a quick walk. +1 on having to plan the trip, but the car knows before-hand where to stop. Added a 48 Amp 240V charger to the garage for use around home. Supposedly, we’ve saved $147 by using electrons vs gasoline so far. Changing at home is about 5X cheaper than using a Supercharger using a super off-peak TOU plan. I’m still planning on keeping my V8 SUV to pull toys through the OK boonies! [/QUOTE]
