During a recent trip across most of the US, I had a really fun opportunity: have some s’mores while the car charged! The Sam’s Club we were parked at was closed and the lot was pretty empty. It was also one of the few pull-through charging stations I’ve come across on my journeys, which was even better and easier.that left us barely rolling into several chargers and falling a little short of one.
Sadly, the first station he tried wouldn’t work when he tried to use his credit card. He was an older guy who didn’t know how to install apps on his phone, so the card reader was his only way to start a charge up. The card reader on the second stall we tried worked, and he was able to start charging.
The next thing I did was help him install PlugShare. Knowing where the charging stations are was a big help. He had searched for a station using Google Maps and luckily found the Electrify America station before his vehicle had run down. This helped him come up with a plan to reach his destination. While it would theoretically be easy to get people to use the car’s built-in software, use apps, or otherwise make some kind of plans, the fact is that most people just aren’t going to do that. Before pulling away, the dealer guy we helped out didn’t seem like he wanted to use the apps or make a plan. He was ready to replicate the gas car experience using the first EV he’d ever taken on a road trip.
