One kind of traveler will find the Dodge City area a little unfriendly. No, they probably won't kill you or challenge you to a duel, but if you're an EV driver, there's a big problem: No fast charging!
Dodge City, Kansas, got its name from a time when things weren’t very friendly for travelers. By not friendly, I don’t mean you’d get weird looks or bad service at restaurants, or even tickets from speed traps run by corrupt cops. Back in the mid-19th century, it wasn’t uncommon for people traveling along the Santa Fe Trail to get their throats slit or get shot.
With the business and people only passing through came a reputation for everything we call the Old West today. As basically the quintessential frontier settlement, it had saloons, brothels, bullfighting, and a number of famous gun fights. The town stayed dangerous for a long time, but the new danger was from fellow settlers and workers.
When planning a trip to visit a number of national parks and historic sites in the future, I came across this sad fact. There’s really no good way to get through the area without stopping somewhere to Level 2 charge in the area, but none of the stations seem to be at hotels where you could sleep while you charge up. There is a Tesla destination charger in Dodge City itself, but it has bad reviews on Plugshare. One Kia dealer has a fast charger, but they don’t let the public use it.
