This is the first trip I have taken that required dc fast charging. I started this trip with 5k miles on my Mach e. Today I traveled from Houston area to Killeen and back to see my grandson lift in weight competition. First I had to drive to pick up my daughter and then go to the competition. She lives close to 290 so I picked her up and we go to the outlet mall in round rock that has plenty of dc fast chargers. I’m at 44% and charged for 10 minutes and on our way.
We watched the competition and stopped at the same place on the way back. I was down to 13%. I plugged in and started charging. We went to eat and when I got back to the car it was at 86%. When I got home I was at 20%.
Great trip and no range anxiety as gps mileage and GOM tracked to 10 miles.
EA chargers worked fantastic.

It really is simple when the chargers work. My travel anxiety is all about charging reliability.
