Los Angeles to Nor-Cal Pleasanton Road Trip

did nearly the exact trip, works perfectly (without heater)
old geezer

Do you have an 85? We go back and forth from Orinda to LA, stopping at Harris and Tejon. We typically do around 75 on 5. The leg between Harris and Pleasanton should be fairly easy at around 75, if you fill up well at Harris, since we are a good 20 miles farther than Pleasanton. We find it takes a good part of an hour to eat at Harris Ranch, depending on the time of day. That works fine to get the car well charged, especially if you have a decent charge at Tejon-Lebec. We have frozen yogurt at the Yogurtland near the chargers. However, climbing the Altamont Pass near Livermore, I wouldn't do 75, that would be burning a lot of kwh's. Very few ICE's do that speed up the Pass. With five in the car, you probably won't need the heater, maybe AC in the Valley.

The mother ship is an easy drive over the hill from Pleasanton plus you should sign up for a factory tour if you haven't done it yet.

+1 :biggrin:
