SEVA https://SeattleEVA.org attends the https://www.greenwoodcarshow.com/ Greenwood Classic Car Show each year to show dozens of BEVs including a large number of custom conversions. This year I towed http://www.plasmaboyracing.com White Zombie from Portland to the show in Seattle, a ~350Mile round trip.

Video Timeline:
* Began day @05:55am at 97% per FordPassApp reported +43.3kWh?, did not quite make it to 100%SoC.
** over 27hours 34 min starting Jan23 02:21 and end of Portland Tow Trip
** eGauge reported 30.5kWh via DIY OpenEVSE @20 amps Level 2 with no kW Counter.
** This discrepency of 30 vs 43 kWh is very odd, the eGuage normally reports more due to charger losses on the truck.
* 01:03 Arive a staging parking lot to unload White Zombie
* 01:19 View out of roof
* 01:57 White Zombie off trailer
* 02:20 Trailer unhitched ready to drive into car show
* 02:35 Convoy into car show
* 03:13 Parked at car show. @08:05am 1.5Mi/kWh@1:45:15@32.4Mi 81%
* 03:25 ProPower @8:06am plug in imev at level2 (+~14seconds)
* 03:33 ProPower @8:13am plug in ranger to frunk level1 (+~10seconds)
* 03:43 ProPower @8:18am plug in bambo truck PhaseB Bed inverters
* 07:31 ProPower @10:20am (+120min*60/32x=225seconds (+~3min 45sec)) 70%SoC
* 11:21 ProPower @12:23pm (+120min*60/32x=225seconds (+~3min 45sec)) 62%SoC
* 16:00 ProPower @15:00pm (+147min*60/32x=275seconds (+~4min 35sec)) 58%SoC All BEVs finished charging
** All told the Lightning delivered ~6.6kW for a few hours. Consumed 23% of SoC which is ~30.13kWh
* 17:16 Ac at 60degF then MAX Low @15:41 (low climate work load) (+~1min 16sec) 58%SoC
* 19:12 Leaving Show @16:44pm 0.6Mi/kWh @10:50:48 @34.7Mi (+~2min 0sec) 55%SoC
* 24:44 @19:19pm DCFC at EA +30.275kWh 0.9Mi/kWh @13:25 @64.7Mi 41%~63%SoC
** Spent some Free FordPass DCFC 8.698kWh (First Session failed at 4minutes)
** Finish @19:52pm 63% FordPass Spent 21.577kWh in 14minutes, max rate was ~131kW
* Overnight at home charged to 80% (78% Actually) FordPassApp reported +24.2kWh and eGauge reported 31kWh.

Trip Summary:
* 0min ~30.5kWh ($3.66) ¢12/kWh – Late on the 23rd began charging from 80% to 100% but only made it to 97%
** Note that the earlier mentioned FordPassApp 43.3kWh was mostly from the previous towing trip from Portland
* The Lightning delivered ~6.6kW for a few hours. Consumed 23% of SoC which is ~30.13kWh
* 18min ~30.275kWh ($free) ¢12/kWh DCFC at EA for free with included 300kWh via FordPassApp.
* 0min ~31.0kWh ($3.72) ¢12/kWh – Overnight at home to 80% (FordPassApp:+24.2kWh) (eGauge:31kWh) (emporia:null)
* Charging Sum Totals = 91.775kWh ($7.38) ¢8/kWh (But 1/3 of that was free instead or normal ¢48/kWh from EA)($14.532)
** Had we paid for EA would have been ($21.91) ¢23.87/kWh
* Dash Full Day energy use was 0.9Mi/kWh @14hours :09min :54sec @68Mi Calculated=61.2kWh consumed per dash values.
** But that excludes the 80%-97% SoC Head Start for the day, 17%(~22.27kWh) worth.
** 61.2+22.27 = 83.47kWh / 91.665kWh added to truck = ~90.95% Efficiency wall-to-wheel – ¢32/mile but doesn’t account for genset use
** Technically, the next morning, we did not quite get to the normal 80% Soc but left for return trip at 78% so was shy by perhaps ~2.62kWh)
** Note that the truck was kept running with climate control or inverters charging the three other BEVs during all stopped time while staging and during the show (14 hours was not driving time).
* Juxtaposition vs a 10mpg gas truck at $4/gal for 68miles would have cost: $27.20
** Plus the cost to run a genset for 30.13kWh, estimate 30% eff at (mpge of 33.6kWh/gal) would be 2.69gallons is $10.76
** So the Lightning cost ~$21.91 versus $37.96 and the lack of noise from a genset during the show.
