Hi Folks. We own a 2016 SV. Love the car. Bought it for local commuting and the occasional 450 Km trip. We now find ourselves in a situation where we will be making a single (return) trip from the BC interior to Palm Springs via i5. This will be a leisurely trip of about 6 days as we have a few places to visit along the way although we will be travelling every day. We currently have cards and active accounts for Chargepoint, FlO and greenlots so The Canada portion is well covered. Here are the questions.
1. What networks do you recommend that we enroll in to make the recharging easier along the way.
2. Any suggestions on the level 3 gap in the siskyoos between Northern California and southern Oregon. There is level 2 there.
We will also be using overnight L2 charging at hotels and have a Tesla to J1772 adapter for destination charger use.
Our plan in 2020 is to get a new long range Leaf SL and then we will be making that trip more often but until then this will have to happen at least once if not twice with the 2016 SV.
Thanks in advance. Would love to hear of others experiences on the i5 corridor, favourite charge stops etc. We are very familiar with the route but have always done it in a motorhome.
