  • Just moved down to Oregon from the Seattle area a few years ago and have a Mach-E.

    Similar setup to the other poster here. 50a installed at home. We plug in at night and have charging set to 80% and synced with the local utility to prefer off hours. Price wise, we’re spending about $60 a month compared to the $200+ we’d spend on previous ICE vehicles. Combined with solar on the roof, it’s been a pretty good value. Not a net zero for sure but overall good.

    If there’s a long trip planned, we over ride settings to 100%. There’s a ton of 300kwh chargers along I5 (0%-90% in 20 or so minutes every 3-4 hours). We’ve driven from Seattle to LA with no trouble a few times. Takes a little bit more planning but not too much of an issue.
