Regarding whether or not charging at Tesla stations is "free" ... "not really". It is built into the cost of the car, and Musk/Tesla is paying for the electricity, unless he's got some deal going...

For those that own Escapes, do you feel they are fairly aerodynamic? Do you notice them much when you're towing them? What kind of mileage drop do you have when towing? Thanks :)

Towing 19 or 17 with Tesla X?

Has anybody had experience towing an Escape 19 or 17 with a Tesla Model X? If so, does it work well? What kind of decrease in range have you seen with towing a camper this size? Thank you. :)
