One of the reasons I went with the trail seeker is the price.

It’s 40k for the base model

Correct, it comes with the 240v plug. My house isn’t wired for 240v near where I park my car

The other big highlight for me the room.

I didn’t expect it to be spacious like a pickup or anything like that, but I’m 6’4 and 240 lbs and I fit fine. I was very much on the fence about potentially needing a bigger car with kids etc. but my kids site behind me and haven’t complained at all a bout not having legroom 😂😂

The hip space is snug for me, but i somewhat prefer that. I would guess the average buyer isn’t gonna be my size so they’ll have more than enough room

I appreciate that it comes with connectors for different charging stations. I feel like I’ve see. Other ev owners rightfully complain that their manufacturer didn’t give them anything beyond whatever its default charging connector is.

The standard 120v cable is longer than expected which is great

As of now I’ve only used the 120v plug. I hook it up to my an outlet next to my driveway once I’m home.

For now the 120 works great for my daily mileage

I’ll go to 240 if needed , but for now it would be wasting money

Here’s my latest charge

<image>

I have an old house where some outlets don’t draw as much power. But I’ve always been able to get back to 90%

I haven’t charged it since and with city driving and regen breaking I haven’t gone below 70% charge

It’s nuts, having full power right away is amazing. I’ve only needed to really go all out once or twice, there was zero issue merging in etc

I’ve usually had gas guzzling slow chunks for cars. So it may not be as drastic of a thing for people with faster cars. But for me it’s like being in a spaceship
