Does anyone seeing this spout own or have experience with a BEV (battery electric vehicle)?

I've been planning to buy one (which one? who knows) and am interested in people's experiences, e.g., charging, road trips, etc. Thanks

A couple years ago we rewired the garage to 100 amp service and installed a dryer outlet (60 amp) near the garage door to allow for EV charging. I've never used the outlet so I hope it works. It seems that public charging may still be problematic, which is not good for road trips.

On my 2nd (bought them both used) 2015 Model S. The first one was in Chicago, and I was going that way for a conference so picked it up rather than pay to have it shipped to SoCal. Then drove it to Toronto and Montreal and road-tripped home. Great way to get to know a whole different way of driving!

This was 2018 and there were appropriately spaced chargers the whole way home, but none yet on 94 or trans-Canada. They are everywhere now but I only use on road-trips or days that I end up doing extra driving. Lost free supercharging with 2nd but charge at home every night.

No, and having lots of opinions about EV's don't qualify me to give you an answer either. 😁

We don’t, unfortunately, but wish we could get one.
