That will be a good test of degradation. Even if you could find a 110V outlet there will help a little. It will add hardly nothing during the winter but help keep range from falling and will add maybe 25 miles during the day in warmer weather. If you tell them you are willing to pay for the install, they might go for it. Maybe you could donate a J1772 station that is reserved for your use for the year and tell them you'll leave it there when project is done.
80mph in winter will be cutting it close even with max charge I'm guessing. Slowing down to 70mph might make that trip more possible in a few years. Hopefully a Supercharger is built along that route at some point.
The pack isn't warranted against normal degradation so you may find yourself needing to buy a new pack sooner than 8 years if you continue that long commute. Might just be worth buying a new Model S in 5 years and hopefully a 110kWh pack or something is out.
Have you thought of the lease that you can write off as a business expense if that is possible?
