Overall, it really was a great trip. Driving a Tesla long distance is a piece of cake, at least for the route we took. One other observation I didn't mention:
Not all Nissan dealerships are created equal. On the way up I called Coggin Nissan in Jax. I didn't HAVE to charge there, but since it's 174 miles from the St Augustine SC to Savannah SC, I wanted to pick up just a few miles on their CHAdeMO. They said I could, yet when we got there and started to plug in, they came out and said their policy was to allow only Nissans to charge there. That's fine, but I had called ahead for that very reason, so I didn't exactly drive the speed limit on the way there. Very disappointing, maybe I wouldn't recommend a Leaf to someone wanting an entry level BEV now...
On the way home, for the same leg in reverse I found another Nissan dealership in Brunswick, GA. I called Jenkins Nissan, who couldn't have been nicer. They were kind of excited, as they said no one had ever used their CHAdeMO before. We got there, plugged in with no problem, and went inside to say thanks. They insisted on giving us ice cold bottled water and showing us to the customer lounge. We got what we needed in about 15 minutes and were on our way. Take a lesson, Coggin Nissan!
