Looking to drive from California to Baltimore and back in my MS 85 with a side trip to Chicago in June. Concerned about some of the choices without running out of charge. Most concerned about the segment between the Las Vegas and Beaver Utah Superchargers. How likely is it that I will be able to make that segment on a full charge without running out? Has anyone made that segment successfully? Also I plan to go from Angola Indiana to Macedonia Ohio which is a long segment. Will this work without running a risk?
Here is my proposed plan (numbers in parenthesis are mileage between segments):
Day 1: Home to Barstow (165), Barstow to Las Vegas (161), Las Vegas to Beaver (221) sleep
Day 2: Beaver to Green River, (187) Green River to Glenwood Springs (185), Glenwood Springs to Lone Tree (172), Lone Tree to Cheyenne (120), sleep overnight.
Day 3: Cheyenne to Lusk (147), Lusk to Rapid City (151), Rapid City to Murdo (134), Murdo to Mitchell (139) sleep.overnight
Day 4: Mitchell to Worthington (127), Worthington to Albert Lea (114), Albert Lea to Mauston (187), Mauston to Rockford (137), side trip to Arlington Heights (72) stay overnight in Chicago with relatives
Day 5: Arlington Heights to Angola (187), Angola to Macedonia (201), Macedonia to Cranberry (95), sleep overnght
Day 6: Cranberry to Hagerstown (191) to Baltimore (destination). Perhaps lodge at the Doubletree at the Colonnade (73 from Hagerstown) which is listed in Plugshare as having a NEMA 14-50 for guests..
Under the above plan, I am bypassing some Superchargers such as Richfield, Silverthorne, Maumee and Sommerset. Should I not bypass any of these? Also I may not need to go to both Cranberry and Hagerstown.
I would appreciate your advice on the above proposal.
