Have had our P85 for a while now and have done several short trips from Bremerton, WA to Portland, OR without issues. Drive down, goof around, charge up in Woodburn, drive home. Easy-peasy.
We're now getting ready to take off on our first Real Road Trip, from Bremerton, WA to Santa Barbara, CA and back. Looking to zip down I-5 to get there. Our charging plan for going down looks to be straight forward and easy. Plenty of info on this site to help us get over any range anxiety we might have had - thanks all! Coming back, we're hoping to travel up Hwy 1 with our tent, taking a couple extra days and enjoying the ride. We've driven this route several times over the years in prior vehicles, but travel in our MS is a new day Tried mapping with EVTripPlanner, but it keeps routing us up I5 to the Superchargers there. I'm having problems dragging the route over to the 1 and off of the 5. Tesla Supercharger map shows that there are a few chargers on Hwy1, though. Any tips from those of you who have been there/done that??
As a side note.....we have free Supercharging on our vehicle and were hoping to minimize our "fuel" costs on this trip. We will be bringing a heavy-duty orange garage extension cord in case we need it (charge at campsite?).
