    ADVICE for long trip

    I will practice with leafspy and study my car's consumption under varying parameters. My job is 28 miles (about 19 of that is hwy where i do 70 with reg cruise). 26 deg morning can burn 30-35%. Go home same route at 55 deg and i can make it home using 23% So temp will be in my favor late March.

    ADVICE for long trip

    QUICK update before anyone chimes in. I looked over Dala's channel and saw how complex the can-bridge mod would be. Let's just say that's not gonna happen. I am going to review all the L2 options in and around the Florence stop to see if I can build up some charge before topping off at L3. Is...

    ADVICE for long trip

    As to other points brought up. I'm hoping to do my best to keep it around 60mph in effort to keep the temp down. Shouldn't need HVAC, open vent should be fine. Will look into getting the gear reduction oil swapped out. Found that L2 at end of the 106 mile stretch. Going from Holly Springs...

    ADVICE for long trip

    Thank you rogersleaf, looking back on PLUGSHARE, i found in filters the J1772 turned off. Come to discover there's a Starbuck's on other side of highway with 4 chargepoint plugs. It's close to the front door, so probably not the quietest place, but to reduce use of QC, it could be very helpful...

    ADVICE for long trip

    I understand the window buffer thing and effects on aero. Wondering about the benefits and details of the gear oil switch? Had a 2015 Nissan Sentra with CVT and my mechanic recommended BG brand who had a variant with additives that gave better friction performance to help with CVT function. I...

    ADVICE for long trip

    to Sagebrush's point, South carolina is pretty limited (at least on i-95) so the 106 mile stretch is only option. and as for the trip being "an adventure", i guess in some way I'm almost looking at it as a way to "see what happens". probably eat crow and hating life in the middle of the...

    ADVICE for long trip

    Sagebrush, the distances between stops are my only choice. (the 106 miles is the worst and no options around it). I do have the pro version of leafspy. I'm assuming (haven't done it yet) that you can leave the dongle in place while driving? what about when car is shut off, okay to just "leave...

    ADVICE for long trip

    Night could be chilly in late march. I"m wondering how warm battery will be after 148 miles and a QC to 70%. Then have to do a QC to 98% for the 106. Actually thought of taking a dinner break after 64 miles into long leg, then finish 42 mile remaining distance, wait another 2 hours before...

    ADVICE for long trip

    I've read plenty of posts regarding long distance and the 40kWh battery. I have a 467 mile trip down i-95 I'd like to take (NC to Jax). and I am fully prepared to split the trip with an overnight hotel stay. My question related to will the battery not over heat under the following condtions...
