I just drove to Savannah 430 miles on Sunday. Started at 100% with 320 miles of range. I kept it between 65-75 mph most of the way, charged 3 times, could have pushed it closer to 20% or less, but I didn’t want to risk it. Each charge cost about $20, definitely cheaper than the gas version of an F150. I averaged 2.0 miles per kWh using blue cruise the whole way.
On the way back today, the hotel only charged my truck to 50% so I had to stop after about 100 miles. I made 2 longer stops, one at Buc-ee’s in Daytona with Mercedes chargers up to 400kw. I was averaging 180kw charge. A Hummer Ev was next to me, and the driver mentioned he just bought it and had to drop a trailer to charge. He was towing it from Orlando to Daytona and said he used 181 kWh just for that trip, which cost over $100. He has to drive that route 2x a week.
The driver couldn’t figure out how to unhook the charging cable and asked me for help. The charger was still running even though it was 100%, so I had to shut it off to unlock the cable. My truck charged to 90% and automatically stopped. Wouldn’t go over 90%. My total charge was $44 for 84 kWh, $0.56 per kWh. I spent 50 minutes charging (the first stop took 46 minutes, 69 kWh, and cost $40, for those curious).
