Recent average efficiency has been 5-5.2 miles/kWh so the car thinks it can deliver 312 miles of range at that rate. I'm going to be doing mostly highways today so likely not

1) Demand charges on business/commercial electric rates
2) Trenching to put chargers in the parking lot
Not sure how many vans we're talking about here or where they park
Are there other automakers that don't allow you to shift to neutral without pushing the lock? I can't remember being in a vehicle that didn't allow easy shifts to neutral.

The picky kid refused so I went on the hunt for alternatives. Walmart now offers this refrigerated soy milk with a solid 2 month expiration date and she loved it.
