[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"We just took our ID4 for a long weekend in Shenandoah for our first trip. The charging situation was totally fine. We left with a full charge, topped up at the Walmart in Haymarket and then explored stanardsville and the Charlottesville area. There were fast chargers in Charlottesville and slower ones in the area. On the way home, we had plenty of charge left to make it to DC without stopping. Yes it required a bit of planning but the apps will tell you if the station is in use or if it’s offline. I was not totally sold on getting an EV (my husband pushed for it), but this trip was a piece of cake."

That sounds like a dawdling weekend, not a road trip where you're trying to cover ground to get to your destination. When I'm driving to Michigan, I'm not stopping in Haymarket unless I stupidly forgot to fuel up before leaving the my house in DC.[/quote]

NP — Road trip involves stops / exploring things along your route. Otherwise you’re just your personal greyhound bus. (Your never call that a road trip.)[/quote]
