I am going to NASA's Kennedy Space Center for the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch. Anyone headed that way? Want to car pool?
My plans now, are to leave DC early on Mar 13th, returning Mar 16th or Mar 17th. The Launch is about 5am on Sunday the 16th.
I have a Ford Fusion Energi. I figure if I wanted to drive that all EV it would be: 900 miles / 22 EV miles per charge = 41 stops and 102 hrs charging time (13 hrs driving + 102 hrs charging = 115 hrs or 4 days 19 hrs).
So I am not going to do that. Driving normal: I should get about 45 mpg, but if I figure it at 40 mpg it would be 22.5 gals at $ 3.45 = $ 77.62. One way (or $ 155) - 13 hrs.
If going by Tesla: it would be about 900 miles in 18 hrs and $0. I want a Tesla :smile:
