    Great Video. I recently took a 1000 mile trip to Louisiana in my Model 3 SR+ and we had 110+ degrees at almost every supercharger. Wrapping a wet paper towel around the charging handle helps keep it cooler, and you will get better charging speeds.

    Great video! I always appreciated your honesty from your experience. Was it worth it with all the time wasted waiting for EV charging? I love Tesla for daily driving and the convenience of home charging. However, I’d prefer ICE when I take a long trip. I just don’t want to worry about the charging station and be limited on where I can go. Keep up the great work!

      I have a RWD model 3 and I only get 275 miles but it’s closer to 255, and even with that I’ve traveled from austin Texas to Los Angeles and back twice. And never worried about charging. I think people don’t understand that the super chargers are super quick. I stopped every 2 hours on my trips or around that and charge up for about 10-15 minutes and would constantly go from about 65-95% over and over so my battery rarely went below 60%. Anyways once you get a Tesla and start driving you will get it. It’s not bad at all. Yeah some places don’t have over night chargers but then you can just use a super charger or a 3rd party to get you back to 100% in about 30 minutes of your really low

    • @EverydayChris

    I love Zion and Yosemite Valley equally, except that Yosemite is only 200 miles away.

    Great trip video, thanks Chris. I drive the I40 all the time on a long 3 day trip from the Bay Area to SW Colorado. I'm planning to do a trip thru Vegas, Zion, Page and the Escalante and Bears Ears wilderness. Charging will be a real challenge with some double-back travel necessary to get a charge. You and the boys are champs for doing that Zion Narrows hike, I'll try for some of it (maybe!). Cheers and drive safely.

    • @brandonn161
      @brandonn161 Рік тому +2

      The car will precondition the battery for you when you are heading to a supercharger. All you need to do is just set the navigation to navigate to the charger and the car will do the rest for you as you drive. As for taking off, you can schedule your departure time and the car will precondition the battery and make sure that the interior temp is set to what you have set it at. Example for me, I have my departure time set at 7am weekdays, so the car will make sure that the is battery charged and temperature is what I set it to right before 7am. So everything is good to go for me when I need to leave.

    250 kW (V3) chargers are not only newer, faster, and not shareable, so the turnover is also faster, meaning any waits are shorter than they are at 150 kW chargers.

      I think this would be very nice, but we also have to remember that a big battery in every car can be wasteful. For the average person, city commute is quite sufficient. It'd be nice if there was a super long range option though, and it'd be worth it for people who's use case involved roadtripping long distances
