my record for 1 day is 52 miles but my car is smaller and has a larger battery pack. the garage space I rent also has EV upgrade option for an extra $100 monthly. At some point i would like to find a cheaper reliable daily charging protocol.

At some point i would like to find a cheaper reliable daily charging protocol.Yesterday I took my dog to the vet, there and back, all on EV (and picked up coffee for my wife). 15.6 miles
Got home about 10:15am plugged it in (110V)
Got notified it was full at 4:17pm and left at 4:26pm (HEMI TIME!) to pick up the dog.
Another 14.5 miles on full EV, back home and plugged in again.
SO, 30.1 miles on full EV, in one day AND it was finished charging the 2nd time just before midnight!

Times were long for 30 miles, because I sat in the car the whole time while my wife went in, so HVAC/Radio was on the whole time
Tomorrow I have to do a 100 mile loop to the airport and back, that will burn some fuel for sure.
L2 is very helpful; although I do think a higher capacity onboard charger will be on my wishlist for a future car.That would be my theoretical limit, maybe 60 ish.
But it would take a full 24 hours basically.
Say 22 miles on initial charge, then 10-11 hours on charger, then 20 more miles, then charge until full or to the 23 hour mark, and drive with what it has in it.
I've only ever charged on a L2 at one resort, but I've done it several times there (including multiple times in a day as well). And it seems SO FAST even though it isn't really if you were dependent on EV only, ever.
