Would you mind posting links to the rims and tires you put on that and if they affected your range much? I have a premium and do not like the rims - yours look great.

Thanks for the info! God bless and safe travels! I am in Northeast TX . We travel to Sea Drift where we have a little fishing house and love to visit Port Aransas every year.

I did a 300+ video with my lightning ER and its just an inconvenience for me trying to charge. I rent a vehicle when doing road trips.great video

thanks for watching!

Thanks for the vid, Im wanting a extended range F150 and I current live in CC... I dont travel much, but Id like to travel to SA...that Three Rivers charger was the one I planned to use. Sadly, it seems traveling would be a bit rough unless you stop at that Beeville location to top it off. I think the Beeville charger isn't available 24/7 either. There is hope though, I read online they're gonna build another charging location between CC and SA. Hopefully, thatll be soon. Is yalls lightning an extended range? Im assuming it is. Is it worth getting, or, is there just not enough charging stations in TX yet?

[@GinsWhimsTravelChannel]

Thanks for watching! Yes, our lightning is the extended range one. It's only 166 miles from the Tesla Supercharger at La Palmera in CC to the Tesla Supercharger at The Rim in (north west) San Antonio. There are plenty more charging stations in SA too. You could make it, for sure in the extended range. I would charge to 100% in CC and top off when you get to SA.

I would like to say thanks for the video. But I would like to ask if the Texas heat has had any impact on battery performance or range?

[@GinsWhimsTravelChannel]

Thanks for watching! Please check out our new video that answers your question

[@dillonrobinson5858]

If you see “150 kW” at a Tesla charger, it’s a v2 station. Only v3 stations are compatible and they’ll be listed as 250kW.

[@GinsWhimsTravelChannel]

Thanks! Good to know! 😊

[@pt6998]

Tesla stations need to be the 250Kw+ super chargers for non Teslas. Honestly would be nice just to open all of them up. Imagine going to a gas station and it saying it only works for the Chevy brand.

[@Escobar313]

What type of wheel and tire setup do you have? The other mods look great also. Thanks

[@GinsWhimsTravelChannel]

Thanks for watching! Here’s Chad’s setup:

[@dillonrobinson5858]

Also what efficiency are you getting with that setup? Like what’s you’re average Miles/kWh?

[@GinsWhimsTravelChannel]

I believe it’s between 1.5-1.7 kWh. Stay tuned for a new video next week, where Chad answers y’all’s questions in better detail than I can 🤓

[@elpmedia3405]

I stress over running low on gas. Man I think I’d have a stroke if this were me 😂

[@TennesseeEcoman]

You could always put a generator in the truck bed. 😂 it’s not bad if you charge at home. ❤
