So I'm trying to do this trip in my Model S 85 kWh with only one overnight stop. Around Christmas. And I just don't think it's possible to do it reliably at the moment. Sun Country Highway has 90 amp chargers available from Niagara Falls to London, ON -- so I can get as far as London in one day without too much trouble.
But charging speeds west of there are just too low, and seem like I'd be stuck charging for so long that it would take more than a day.
If Sun Country Highway gets something in in Windsor or Sarnia that would help, but there's no guarantee those will be open in time. If Tesla gets its Supercharger open in Jackson/Ann Arbor, that would help, but that seems even less likely to open on time.
Worse, there seem to be approximately zero hotels in Michigan with on-site charging. (OK, I found one in Grand Rapids, but nothing east of there.)
If anyone has any idea how this could be done reliably in mid-winter given *current infrastructure*, I would appreciate thoughts. I may fall back on doing the trip with two overnight stops, but it seems absurd.
