I wanted to leave the cones these people moved to the top of their hood but didn't want to get in trouble..
I have done exactly that before lol.Place it on the roof like a dunce hat.
Have you seen those Russian videos where they slap giant stickers on cars which drive on bike paths and sidewalks? Someone could some up with a giant sticker for ICE vehicle windshields. It wouldn't cause any permanent damage but could cause some embarrassment and would take some time to remove. They should be self-destructing, of course, to prolong the pain of removing them.Place it on the roof like a dunce hat.
Tough to do, due to the big elevation changes in the area. This isn't CA where there are Superchargers every 10 mileseventually Tesla owners will ignore this location,
Because it's not a handicap spot. No laws in CO to protect EV charging locations.also, why can't the police issue tickets? if that was a handicap...
Yes to both of these. While not impossible, pretty much no one is going to drive Grand Junction to Silverthorne without a top of in Glenwood Springs. It would require a 100 battery, charging to near full and careful driving and it would be particularly hard in the colder months (which is most of the year here).Tough to do, due to the big elevation changes in the area.

I can't find the pictures but several years ago, someone else pulled up in the snow and did just that.In my MX 75D, I can't skip Glenwood. At my last visit, the Plan B I have thought of, if every spot was ICE'd, would be to pull up on the sidewalk behind the chargers.

This drives me nuts. We pay $50 extra to register EV's in Colorado, and have to put the EV sticker on our windshield, but the state won't do anything to protect EV charging spots.
Hopefully our new Governor will make some changes.

And while I understand the frustration, no hotel is going to want to tow their paying guests. It just isn't realistic to expect any hotel to do that for such a minor infraction. Whether or not the cops can write tickets depends on local laws. Ticketing is a much better option from an enforcement standpoint as it gets the message across without completely ruining someone's vacation.
I'm catching up on some older threads, and it was amazing to come across this. That is a very descriptive account, and it is exactly what I did in February 2018 below freezing temperatures on my 5,332 mile road trip, but I don't have a 100 kWh. It certainly wasn't my intention to try to skip Glenwood Springs. The piece of $#it "Beta Trip Planner" gave me terrible advice, and yes, it had me charge to 100% and showed an arrival at 7%. I looked on the map to see if there was anything in between Grand Junction and Silverthorne, and it appeared not. (I had not discovered yet that it hides the Superchargers it doesn't want you to use.) So yeah, I had to go about 15 mph under the speed limit with pretty low heat to barely make it to Silverthorne in my S85.While not impossible, pretty much no one is going to drive Grand Junction to Silverthorne without a top of in Glenwood Springs.

Yeah--right on! The Few...The Proud...The Deceived by the Trip PlannerI have driven the Grand Junction to Silverthorne cannonball run in my P85D.
I actually am surprised how accurate the trip planner (beta!) seems to be, but the one thing it does not account for at all is weather, so if it's below freezing, there is precip on the roadway, and/or you are facing a head wind, look out!I'm catching up on some older threads, and it was amazing to come across this.

When is it not below freezing there? Pretty much afternoons in July/August and that's about itso if it's below freezing,
Even in good weather, though, they should have that parameter coded into the algorithm that it should never recommend a charging plan that has a single digit arrival %. That's way too little margin for the unexpected.I actually am surprised how accurate the trip planner (beta!) seems to be, but the one thing it does not account for at all is weather, so if it's below freezing, there is precip on the roadway, and/or you are facing a head wind, look out!
