not bad for 23-1/2 hours. Should be there by 9 AM. Left yesterday at 5:45. 1270 down, 230 to go. My brother is an awesome copilot!!!! And the Volt has performed admirably! Glad my wife kept the kids at home so we could punch this out with quickness. Last minute airfare sucks balls btw.

Is it easy to find places to charge? How many charges and how long each?

we stopped for gas every 300 miles or so. It's only a 9 gallon tank. Been doing 75-80 most of the way.

yup in today's market a full BEV would not work for me. I would have had to switch cars with my wife for this trip (last minute family emergency trip). Every other week or so I have a 200 mile day. I might be able to live with a Tesla but would have to find a way to plug in at work which I currently can't do...
