Non-Tesla electric car owners: Has anyone done a roadtrip from NJ to Toronto? If so, would you recommend doing this or stick to a gas car for this? We have a 2025 BMW i4 xdrive, for reference. Any insights would be much appreciated!

Just did this route for the holiday weekend in a Rivian. Known fact - EVs are expensive for road tripping and even more if your destination doesn’t have a L2 charger. If you don’t mind spending the extra $$ and time then go for it!

Spent about $175 in charging for reference, drove in conserve mode all throughout

NJ - Pittsburgh (left home with 90% usually start with 100% for such trips but had other errands to run unfortunately and had to stop at a Tesla charger, the destination had L2 so juiced up 100% before heading to Toronto)
PA - Toronto - back to NJ - charged on the Tesla network exclusively.

FYI - Rivian’s are not the most efficient EV either. If that matters for your decision making

Hi! I’m doing some research on employee benefits (medical insurance, 401k, HSA/FSA, commuter benefits) and was hoping to connect with People specialists or HR professionals in the comp & benefits space. I’m trying to better understand any pain points or challenges you might face with utilization/enrollment. Anyone interested in connecting? Thank you!

How much is too much when pushing for a raise? I’ve been in my position a little over 1 year, received top scores in my annual review, kept my team intact, yet I’m paid at the lowest salary band for my level. Manager has said multiple times she would look into a raise for me but nothing has happened. Person before me in this role was earning +$17K than me. How many times do I have to ask?

$700 a month lease (tax-in, 39m/10k) R-Dynamic (380hp V6). Only first month and registration due up front. I can’t think of anything as good or better I can get for that much. Thoughts?
