How many miles on one tank?

What is yours reliable? our gas and electric prices are high but don't get me started on our train fares, I have known it to be cheaper to buy an old car and fuel it than to buy a train ticket to the same destination!!

 

At least the train does not run out of gas. Or does it??? I don't have too many experiences using trains, but last time I was in the UK, it worked very well. It surely had been cheaper than renting a car and driving myself though I never explored that option, so I'm not sure.

 

To be fair it was a while ago since I have been on a train myself and I am sure they are better now though I doubt they are any cheaper than they were.

 

Here in Nebraska, the monthly service charge is $30/month and then 9.36 cents/kwh (summer) or 8.63 (first 100 KWh(, then 7.46 (next 780 Kwh), then 4.31 for the rest. This is the residential conservation rate for those of us with heat pumps. So, most of my winter charging is at 4.3 cents/KWh, and in the summer it is 9.36 cents/KWh. That is roughtly 1 cent/mile winter, a bit more than 2 cents/mile summer.

No time of day pricing, so I have the car set to charge as soon as I plug it in. Then if a later trip in the day comes up, I'm either fully charged or close to it.

 

I envy you. Here is my advice to you! As long as you own PHEV or BEV, DO NOT MOVE TO A NEW ENGLAND STATE!

 

Curious. Most places have higher rates the more you use since it otherwise promotes wastefulness . I'd never hit the $4.31 rate since I never use 780 kWh in a month.

 

This rate structure is for heat pumps, which are more efficient than using gas. So in this case, the more heat pump use, the more energy extracted from the air or ground and more net energy saved. The opposite of wastefulness.
