Wow. I used to think that Idaho has a dearth of electric vehicles. In Boise, we have around a dozen or so Tesla Model S. The first Model X I know of is coming to town this weekend. I see a Tesla on the road every few weeks (2 this week). Usually, I see Leaf more often than that. I seem to see Volt less often than Leaf. Since we don't have state incentives and aren't a compliance state, it is pretty unusual to see anything else. I have seen a BMW i3 once.
Luckily, with the growth in vehicles, Tesla decided to put SuperCharger stations along the local Interstate (I84). That has really helped EV travel in the area for owners.
