Hi everyone!
I am planning to go camping soon in VA. The place is probably a worst possible location; the nearest supercharger is 100 mile away. Note, I will be camping out for 2 days. I might be car camping one night (so need to consider energy for climate controller as well). So back and forth 100+100 miles and climate controller for a night and who knows I might take some wrong turns and get lost for while using more juice.
In my short (2 weeks) experience with the M3SR+, my driving knocks out lot more range than actual miles (eg. 10 mile drive reduces 14 mile estimated range).
So here is the "riddle" for you:
What do I do if I get in a situation when the battery is about to die and there is no charging stations nearby.

- Should I try to go to nearest charging station even if the estimated range is not close to actual miles required to make it?
- Should I stop driving at some level (say 3%) to avoid draining the battery fully? And call roadside assistance? (and how much do they charge and how long do they take come down)
