Wife is a bit freaked out but I assure her the following
- Plenty of well placed superchargers along the way (I count 7) and she has the 85
- Bring home charger in case road is blocked off somewhere. Just need 110 to keep the car alive + heat
- Check weather reports + road conditions the night before the drive. Go if no snow on ground and in weather forecast in next 24 hours. Start early (say 4am) and should be over the pass by early afternoon.
- I've driven this car in snow before in a Seattle flash storm a couple of years ago. It handles great. I saw plenty of BMWs stuck on the road but Tesla kept on trucking. Of course its a RWD and will feel a little slip here and there but always very brief and car catches traction very quickly.
- Will have brand new stock 19" Goodyear RS-A2s on.
Have a couple of questions for people that have done it
1. Are chains required regardless of conditions over the Sisikyou pass?
2. Any thoughts/corrections on my analysis from above?
Thanks
