How My Electric Car Changed My Monthly Bills

After switching to an electric car, I was curious (and a bit nervous) about how my monthly electric bill would change. At first, I noticed a slight increase, but it was nowhere near what I used to spend on gas. Charging mostly at home overnight helped keep costs down, and using my utility’s time-of-use plan made a big difference. If you’re thinking about making the switch, check your local rates and consider a smart charger. Anyone else notice savings or surprises after going electric?

Study the Route or Just Wing It? 🛣️🤔

Before every new drive, I find myself deep in Google Maps — studying every turn, checking Street View, even scouting out parking spots. It helps me feel calmer and way less anxious when I’m actually behind the wheel. 🚗💨 But lately, I’ve noticed most people don’t do that at all. They just hop in the car, punch in the destination, and trust the GPS to guide them along. No stress, no overthinking. Honestly, I kind of envy that easygoing attitude. Sometimes I wonder if I’m over-preparing and making things harder on myself. Maybe it’s okay to trust the process a little more? How do you handle new routes — study first or go with the flow? Would love to hear your take! #DrivingThoughts #RoadPrep #GPSLife #AnxiousDriver #CarTalk
