Hello everyone,
Yesterday (8/29), I made the payment for a 2017 MS 100D (demo), which I plan to lease for 3 years. While I'm super excited, I also spent a sleepless night thinking about so many variables associated to making the switch from ICE to EV; As I often say...as my head hit the pillow..."The circus came to town" and my mind raced all night long. Chief among my concerns;
Yesterday (8/29), I made the payment for a 2017 MS 100D (demo), which I plan to lease for 3 years. While I'm super excited, I also spent a sleepless night thinking about so many variables associated to making the switch from ICE to EV; As I often say...as my head hit the pillow..."The circus came to town" and my mind raced all night long. Chief among my concerns;
- Charging...only 1 SuperCharger around Dayton (32 miles from home)
- Range anxiety; Knowing I can't just hit the nearest gas station has me feeling as if I spent $$$$ with too many limits
- Cost to install NEMA 14-50? (more money!)
- Status Symbol; Wife and I are quite private and shy away from "flashy" purchases; You can see this car from outer-space!!
- Charging strategy; As I understand, desire to keep battery between 20% and 80%; what does one do when they take a long road trip, only to arrive at destination (private home) and needing a charge??? Hey, mind if I plug-in?
