I'm picking up my new baby tomorrow (S90D) and being a huge Disney fan I've got a trip planned to Orange County in November. I've been reading the forums (in maybe too much detail) about the SuperChargers along the route, the trip reports, and the wait times. I think getting down there won't be too challenging as I expect Harris Ranch and ButtonWillow will be somewhat manageable with minimal if any waits. It's the LA area I'm more worried about as it sounds like the waits are lengthy. I think I'm more worried about the return trip. Since I'm staying in Newport Beach, I assume my first stop would need to be Fountain Valley to get charged up (my destination resort only has 110v available so it won't help much), or I am hoping the new one in Buena Park will be open by then. I'm hoping I can then make it to Tejon or ButtonWilllow without a charge again (again trying to avoid Burbank).
Any suggestions? Are the waits really that bad? Should I skip SC and just go with a chargepoint somewhere in Burbank? Should I just drive my ICE car down. I guess I'm wondering if the pain of charging will make the trip overly painful with a wife and 3 kids in the car. Anyone have advice/suggestions?
