    I did a round trip Huntsville-to-Atlanta to pickup two light-weight rims and better tires:
    • Travel time: 2:00 AM to 10:45 AM
      • 30 minutes to wait and load tires
    • Distance: 370 miles
    • Left with 100% SOC and 232 miles estimated range
    • Arrived with 20% SOC, 46 miles estimated range
    • Recharged to 67%, 24 kWh, $2.64
    • Supercharger costs: $8.58
    • Biology breaks while Supercharging:
      • 21 minutes - bathroom and coffee
      • 22 minutes - breakfast
    So these metrics give:
    1. 370 miles / (8.75 - 0.5) hours = 45 mph (state roads)
    2. $0.023 / mile Supercharger costs
    3. $0.032 / mile Supercharger and home costs
    Leaving the loading dock, I heard the 'tick tick' and stopped right away. There was a metal screw but I removed it before it punctured the tire.
