I’ll look at another spot on my way out of Logan this evening. Just verifying was all Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Don you have probably already figured this out but there is a really strong Tesla community and I bet there is a forum to separate the myth from reality. Redundancy is good. Two is one and one is none. CMSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Duane, nice to see you posting. Keep us updated on the eco flow I’ve been looking at them. A YouTube couple I follow on a remote property recently added one.

Yeah, almost big enough, but they still couldn't get a cement truck up the road.Hate to see what they are really spending on solar. Looks like a lot of stuff.
Sounds like my building, but costs more and they tell you up front.
Yes, just got out of the shower.
Quick yes, but the 22 and 18 are just getting going there. Still cool.
Must be on one of the cars trains going buy here, massive.

Would Love to go with you. They are so cool. I was wearing multicam shorts and a noveske t shirt and hadn’t planned on going so they accommodated me in the downstairs bar when I went through there on my way to pick up my RVSent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It may cost a small mortgage payment, but who can put a price on the memories?So while on the subject of fine dining in Cincy, I recommend the following:Seasons 52 Features chef-prepared seafood to steaks, never had a miss there, medium expensiveThe Precinct This is the Jeff Ruby restaurant where it all started. An old cincy police station. Steaks, expensive.The Chart House Fine dining centered around a seafood menu sitting and perched over the Ohio river in Newport, KYMcCormick and Schmicks Fine dining in the center if downtown. Chef prepared seafood, my favorite, expensiveGrandview Tavern Located in Ft. Mitchel KY, very nice area, traditional country cuisine, specialty: Fried chicken, medium expensiveWalts Hitching Post Fort Wright, KY, generations of ribs. Best in the area. Reasonably priced

I have to check out USAA, my insurance is getting to be almost $500 a month. Father was career Marine, mom still had her ID when she passed. Says military, spouses and children, we will see.
Just confirmed that comment above. Trip length of 3,800 miles at a cost of $350 of supercharger station recharges.If you had a car or truck which got 20 mpg, you would have to purchase 190 gallonsAt $5 a gallon that would have cost $950So operating this car in a long trip mode where you are paying the highest price for electric charging you would save $600 or close to a third the cost of driving a gas carThen consider you are looking at a $50-$70 oil change within two thousand miles after and the savings really start to mount up. So we can comfortably say that you can drive a Tesla car on a long trip for about a forth the cost of operating an ICE vehicle.And that is using very expensive supercharging, commercial charging.The same man pays $68 a month, by charging at home and drives about 60 miles a day just work related for 23 days. He obviously drives more than just to/from work and probably drives some on weekends, but just using the work miles, we have 1380 miles for a cost of $68The gasser getting 20mpg uses 69 gallons of gas69 gallons @ $5/gal = $345Now, the Tesla is really starting to stretch its legs with an operating cost of only 19.7% of the gasser (Not including fluid changes and gasser servicing)80% lessAnd I might point out that the power company in my example here is not the same as mine. My power company does indeed have cheaper rates after midnight until 0600, so I will be able to operate at something less that the example above.
