“ If I can’t charge it with the same plug as my android phone or my 50 ft orange extension cord, not interested. :>}L

You can, but it takes forever.

I reviewed last year’s model and liked it quite a bit. The range and charging issues make it suitable only for city use, though. I took it on a two hour highway trip and had to recharge on the way and again on the way back. Two hours extra “travel” time. And the juice cost more than my premium-burning V6 Audi A4 awd on the identical trip a couple of weeks later.

The shortest range Mach-E is 250 miles. How fast were you driving?

Assuming 70 mph that would be 280 miles RT.

Audi: $32 ($4.20/g)

Mach-E: $18 (Home charge and roadside supplement)
