OMG, you’re getting an EV coach!

WHAT YOU GET

You’ll go from curious to confident about buying an EV to fit your home, your lifestyle and your budget.

  1. Find the EV for your setup/budget
  2. Where to test/buy, what to look for
  3. Make sure you get the best deal
  4. How & when to set up charging

WHAT YOU PAY AND WHY THAT’S A DEAL

The complete 1:1 Coaching Sequence costs $250. If I help you buy a $25K car, that’s a 1% insurance policy to make sure you’re getting the right EV for you; you negotiate like a pro — including making sure you get federal rebates of $4,000-$7,500 — and you start enjoying your EV on day one!

CONFIDENCE FOR THE EV DRIVER JOURNEY

I’ve been hacking my way through life with EVs for more than a decade, and I’m committed to making YOUR EV journey way less painful delightful. From fearless home and road-trip charging to understanding how your big battery might make you thousands of dollars a year someday by selling your power back to the grid, I’m here to get you EV Driver Journey off to a brilliant start.

THE COACHING PROCESS - STEP BY STEP

  1. Schedule our first 50-min kickoff session and pay $250 fee.
  2. I’ll send you a 10-minute survey to help me customize for you right from the jump.
    • What vehicles you drive now and how you use them
      • What’s working, not; what may be changing
      • Details on your parking situation
      • On your commute
      • On your road trips
    • Financials
      • What’s your budget?
      • Trade-ins? Value/what you owe?
      • Rough #’s on income to calculate tax credit eligibility
  3. 50-min live 1:1 Kickoff
    • Build a short list of actual EVs on lots to go drive
    • EV life fundamentals:
      • Miles / Kilowatt Hour vs Miles Per Gallon
      • Range anxiety and charging speed
      • Rebates for new and used cars
      • How AC (levels 1, 2) and DC (level 3) charging works
      • Vehicle-To-X aka, what you can do when your car’s plugged in
  4. You test cars on our short list
    • Set you up with 1-3 apps so you can start learning where chargers are
    • Test drive a few local options
    • Get you in an EV rental: turo, hertz or one of our fleet cars
    • Practice all 3 levels of charging
  5. 25-min live 1:1 Session
    • Are you still ready to buy soon? Don’t rush if you aren’t ready.
    • Refine our short list
    • Get our math ready on rebates, time on lot for cars you like
    • How different dealers think about EVs
    • Speed run on how to negotiate a car - hidden costs, dealer tactics
    • If you’re not buying a new Tesla, we’ll practice your math, role playing the deal back and forth. I’ll act as the person on the phone you call before you agree to anything.
  6. After the sale
    • 1 week of text/emergency phone support once you get your EV home
      • Your first charge
      • Your first road trip - pro-tips for filtering, which chargers are good/bad
      • Setting up demand-management charging with your utility in your apps

My obsession with Learning science

I’ve been building schools and learning tools even longer than I have electric vehicles, so part of this project is about basic brain science. I hope that means you’ll have more fun, and have a better shot at learning what I’m putting down.
