Questions Stockton drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV Trail Boss go in a Stockton winter?
Stockton's winters are mild: about 459 miles on a typical January day (48°F) and about the same in the coldest week (around December 23, 47°F), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's within 7% of its 493-mile rating. The harder season here is summer: about 424 miles in July, with the air conditioning on.

About $189 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at California's average home electricity rate of 29.8¢/kWh: about 16.3¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on California's average gas ($5.89 a gallon) costs about $401 a month for the same driving.
Can I charge a Silverado EV Trail Boss on a regular 120 V outlet in Stockton?
