I made this trip last week without problems. I got a range charge in Ritzville and didn't exceed the speed limit. The wind was not blowing hard that day and I got to The Dalles with 44 miles of range left.
My back-up plan, if I was consuming too much juice, was to top off the battery in Arlington (level 2 and CHAdeMO) or at a level 2 in Kennewick (perfection tire). On the return trip I decided to go north from The Dalles to the Ellensburg SC and then east to Ritzville because I was worried about going uphill to get to Ritzville.
I will be glad when the Tri-Cities SC goes in.

Thanks for relating your actual experience. Your options for charging if range becomes a problem are quite helpful also. I will borrow a CHAdeMO adapter before I take the trip.
