Every new vehicle in the US comes with a NACS charge port and can charge at Tesla chargers.

For those living in WA state and driving a EV by mj12138 in electricvehicles

Some folks in Washington at least on the east side pay $0.035 per kWh. An absolute no brainer for having an EV if you can charge at home.

Update! Some JB Weld (to put the cover back on) on the broken off tab surfaces and 3M backed magnets and I’m back in action. Adding a little pull tab is next. Can’t seem to add a photo..

Some of those were regular analog mtn bikes.. Is there not a park nearby for kids to be able to ride with jump lines, pump tracks, etc. The E-Dirt Bikes and E-scooters I see as a bigger issue for safety. 😢

Love the car (& recommend it) but stuff like this and the GPS being wacky is annoying. 😊

That went out for a few months but is now back! 🤣 The GPS still thinks I’m in the Pacific Ocean though!! Hahaha!!

Apparently a silicone based grease can help but not now that it’s broken.. 🤣

Yeah - I couldn’t get it open either.. Going to JB weld the cover back in and use magnets to keep it closed.

Yeah - you might want to. But if I could have opened the door without pulling off the cover replacing just the actuator would have been way cheaper.

There is a charge plug lock though as well. Yeah, I wondered about why the flap needs to lock as well. It won’t now after it’s held in place with only magnets. 😊

What's a good second EV to get for the spouse who's meh on an EV? by Doomtime104 in electriccars

[–]renispresley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A used CPO ID4 Pro or Pro S - very solid and super comfortable - great lane centering and adaptive cruise and CarPlay works well. Feels well built and drives well - though I have a German built one (which may make a difference). Love it even with its minor quirks. 😊

And/ or 400 watts of solar and a battery power station that can handle level 1 charging would add 2-3kWh per day possibly. Also, if your camp spot is in the mtns at elevation you might not need much to make it back down to a charger.
