Cross-country drive Pittsburgh to California?

[KickinLeaf]

Take it from someone with experience, I did an almost 1400 mile trip in a FitEV almost two years ago. It was fun, but I didn't get any sleep for 3 straight days due to range anxiety, it was like a drug that kept me awake. Yes, I could not fall asleep, and drove almost 1400 miles straight, minus time charging. It's definitely doable, but as you see the most recent post at the top of my blog, it got old quickly and I spent all the $$ I saved on fuel renting a truck to trailer the car home. I was proving something to myself that it could be done. Would I ever do it again, hell no.

If you decide to go for it, you will never want to wait more than an hour to charge your car ever again.

Enjoy!

Where did you get those electric scooters? Those look pretty cool. How were they to ride? Will they carry a 220lb dude?

Yes, they are a lot of fun, should handle your weight without issues. They also have a hill climbing kit you can buy for faster speeds up hill at the cost of lower top speed.
