We got my wife a Lexus RX450h+ PHEV while I wait for my R2. Has all the luxury you could want and we get about 41 miles all electric range which covers about 99% of her driving. Bought it last December and have filled the tank a total of three times (once from half tank). Car is reporting...

They said during the investor conference call that the capability is in all the vehicles they have made and that they are working on a bidirectional charger for this purpose. Can do 24kW. Does not help you now but help is on the ay for the future.
Regardless of the route you are taking for this trip, the Tesla charger system is by far the largest charging system in the US and Canada. The charge port is smaller and the charge connector also smaller and easier to use. I cannot speak to the software side, but I would assume Tesla parts for...
