I wanted to take this trip in my MS (P85D) but looking at EV Trip Planner it seems it will turn a ~6 hour trip into a ~12 hour trip which will just be too long with two young children. The supercharger options seem rather limited and the big issue is there isn't any close to my destination. So I'd need a way to recharge for the return trip.
I wanted to check with distance travel veterans to see if I'm missing any obvious solutions here. One idea I had is: could I do Chatanooga -> Nashville and then drive (a bit slowly) directly from the Nashville Supercharger to Carbondale IL and then find a destination charging option? I don't see any official Tesla destination chargers in Carbondale, IL, but is there another option that could get me fully charged overnight?
My apologies if this is a dumb question; so far I have only charged at home and at superchargers.
