You didn’t by chance ask if they were going to Beckley next did you? I’m going to Florida down I-77 next week. I probably won’t have any trouble making the Charleston to Wytheville leg but would feel more comfortable knowing Beckley is online because I’ve always had to take the I-75 route in the past before Charleston was open.

You'll definitely not have any issue making it from Charleston to Wytheville. Here was a trip I made down and back in my 90D in case it helps (stats are from Teslafi.com). Cooler temps will impact your range a little more than my trip.

Charleston -> Beckley = 57 miles; used 75 miles or 19.8 kWh; 68 mph avg; 348 Wh/mi @ 80 F; +1,800 ft elevation
Beckley -> Wytheville = 75 miles; used 83 miles or 22.1 kWh; 72 mph avg; 296 Wh/mi @ 80 F; -165 ft elevation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Charleston -> Wytheville = 132 miles; used 158 miles or 41.9 kWh; 70 mpg speed; 319 Wh/mi @ 80 F; +1,635 ft elevation
= Left Charleston w/192 miles (70% SOC) and arrived at Wytheville w/36 miles (13% SOC)​


Wytheville -> Charleston = 130 miles; 281 Wh/mi @ 65 F; used 137 miles or 36.7 kWh; 70 mph avg; -1,630 ft elevation
= Left Wytheville w/192 miles (70% SOC) and arrived at Charleston w/55 miles (20% SOC)​

Thanks Darren--that's good to know. I've never gone through the mountains in winter before, and even though the evtripplanner site said it wouldn't be an issue, it's nice to hear confirmation from someone who has made the trip.

I’m at the Supercharger station right now. The speed of charging is not sanctified; maybe because I have more than 70% power. I randomly pick two charger. And the speed is not as good as I think. I will comeback when I reached a lower battery level.

Besides, Marshall will release two charging stations tomorrow. I would like to try it if the charging station is compatible.

Good news for Huntington. To add to the new Huntington Supercharger, tomorrow Marshall University is dedicating the first two L2 EVSE connections on the Huntington campus at a lot in front of Corbly Hall. Switch throw will be at 11 AM.
Great news.
I taught at Marshall for 5 years.
Lived on Hamill Road, and Neel Street, and 1st Avenue.
Good news for Huntington West Virginia!
