Did a 400-mile each way road trip the other day with my daughter. I’ve done the trip many times previously but it was her first Tesla road trip.
The car suggests that the trip can be made with a single LONG charging session around mid-way, but experience has shown me that 2 shorter sessions takes slightly less time overall and is also kinder to my body (and bladder). Cruising speeds are mid 70s and higher, so the car’s range is ~230-240 miles. On the return trip I asked my daughter whether she wanted to stop once or twice and she said breaking the trip up into 3 sections was “nicer”. I agree.
She also got a kick out of being able to watch funny cat videos on YouTube while Supercharging, as well as “Dog Mode”, which kept our cats comfortable in their carrier in the back seat while we used the facilities and grabbed a snack.
And she REALLY liked TACC and how easy it is to use.
