Took another trip to Pa, had a couple interesting things happen along the way. I never had to wait to charge anywhere. Going north on I95: Stopped 3 times to charge including a hotel on the way up Left the house with only a 60% SOC and stopped at EA in Pooler, Ga - 57.2 kWh ($0.56/kWh)...

Moved this to a new thread: I thought it would be interesting to review this great post from October 2020 and compare how things were then to today February 2026 regarding long trips. First and foremost: Folks need to understand that you NEVER travel anywhere NEAR your total range capacity as...

I got almost 29,000 miles on the original Continental Procontact RX All Seasons. That appears to be better than most have achieved. I am assuming that’s because of all the highway miles I traveled vice trying to track my Taycan. The Continentals were ok, but the reviews on Tire Rack for the...

Took a third trip to Pa, this time in December. Evening temps the first two nights were 11 degrees with the daytimes in the low 30’s. As stated by many folks range took a hit, I went from about 250 to 200 miles once we hit the cold weather. However because we have access to Tesla...

Charged for the first time today at a Tesla Supercharger. Getting ready for a trip, so wanted to make sure it worked and that I had the process down. It was easy and worked right away. Took some pictures and the setup of the pedestals allowed me to easily get close enough to not put any strain...

Purchased replacement wiper blades for my 2024 Cross Turismo. Got the fronts from Windy Wipers 26” driver and 20” passenger Got the rears from Suncoast P/N SKU9J0RWB The fronts were easy, less than 5 minutes. However the rear blade even after looking at the owners manual is a challenge...

I road tripped from S. Ga. to Eastern Pa. to attend my 50th high school class reunion. Left after charging to 100% overnight with the car showing 306 miles of range. Of course that estimate dropped pretty quickly (to 265) once I was going highway speeds. With many new chargers along I95 since...

Hadn’t fast charged in 2 months, but was in South Jacksonville yesterday and needed a charge. Stopped at The Avenues Mall and found 2 of the 4 chargers down. Contacted EA and they already were aware, bad news right? Well I connected to one of the working units and got great charging, started...

Shorter trip a little over 300 miles one way from St. Marys to Snellville, Ga. for a New Year’s party. Left with 282 mile range @ 100%. Interestingly within 10 miles (no highway yet) I was down to 233 miles, the outside temp was around 50 degrees. Wanted to arrive with 50% SOC to allow for...

This happened once before and I thought it was my mistake. I set the timer to 80% and the car in the garage reached it and stopped charging. Normally I would disconnect before going to bed, but last night I forgot and when I woke up, the car was fully charged. This happened a couple months ago...

Some advantages living in the south are almost 70 degrees in the middle of November. The Brumos Collection is having a Saturday Social tomorrow, so can’t arrive with a dirty car.

Forgot to set the timer when charging in the garage last night and came out this mourning to 292 mile range at 100%. Drove on I95 to a cars and coffee in S. Jacksonville, 150 mile round trip and still had 140 miles remaining when I got home. Just went over 6,000 miles and am exceedingly happy...

Completed our first long distance trip from SE Georgia to Central and Eastern Pa. Went up Interstate 95 to 26 to 77 to 81 on the way up and stopped overnight in Staunton, Va. I was a bit concerned by range anxiety, so stopped to charge with at least 20% SOC remaining just in case of charging...

Picked up the car early in the week and decided to try and verify DC charging worked. Short answer is yes, at the Yulee, Fl Fast Charger at Wildlight. The chargers were FPL EVolution (2 350s and 4 150s). A Rivian SUV was using one of the 350s and the 2nd was broken. The Rivian guy told he...

Got an e-mail from Porsche that my car has been completed and is on the way to the German port. On the my porsche page was an ‘Insights from production’ link that included assembly line pictures of my CT4. Delivery date to the dealer is scheduled for Nov 23. Can’t wait!

While waiting for my CT4 to be produced, shipped across and delivered, I’ve been researching routes using ABRP and noted that many of the charging stations are located well off the highways. Below is a letter I sent to the office of Gov Kemp of Georgia with an idea. ’Governor Kemp, I have...
