Do you need to fast charge often?
- cmrdporcupine 2y agoI barely drive these days since WFH. But when I do more than go get groceries or school drop off, it's for a 7-10 hour drive for a ski trip to Vermont or Quebec. Which would have to involve fast chargers. Granted, I could probably just drive my wife's Outlander PHEV in that case. But seeing as she just totaled my Volt...
- NewJazz 2y agoHonestly in your situation I'd wait it out and try to work with one car. The new Ioniq 5 models will have NACS, and plenty of other good things to look forward to for other cars.
- cmrdporcupine 2y agoyeah we live rural with two teens, so no car isn't much of an option but I'm thinking I'll just buy a cheap used ICE to tide me over until interest rates drop and I can save some $$ and go buy a new EV :-( had my eye on a used polestar 2 or mustang mach-e, but not sure I can justify debt for that
- NewJazz 2y agoAh yeah kids... With them on the insurance something cheap might be the move indeed.
- cmrdporcupine 2y agoI'm now back to just hunting for a replacement Volt. or, yeah, a well-used Bolt so much "fun"
- jes5199 2y agothe 2021 Bolt that I drive could probably do that trip with a single 45-minute charge stop in the middle. I know that’s slow compared to a Tesla, but it ends up being fine most of the time
