If possible, only charge to 80% on roadtrips. It’s much quicker in long run to charge to 80% (25 minutes, 10-80%) and move on to next charger as charging from 80% to 100% (another 25 minutes to go from 80 to 100%). - EV9 in DC Charging Settings defaults to 100%, change that to 80%.
I use this cargo carrier because its light weight aluminum. Any 2" hitch carrier will work if you have tow receiver installed. I have a steel cargo carrier too, but its so heavy. www.discountramps.com/automotive/hitch/cargo-carriers/p/HCCA-UG-F/?srsltid=AfmBOoo6clwRgy_LJsxwII_Z74AE9SNQQMOSgy6lHbcGgG30Qt_pCR1kN1Y Everything else is from Amazon.

Good video - just got our EV9 in Australia and did interstate trip (500 miles) on day one (sans kids). Charging went fine - longest was 40min over a lunchtime. We get Tesla access to certain chargers using CCS2 which complemented other networks. Quick question - did you tint windows or did it come standard? If you did, do you know spec of tint? Looks dark enough outside to look the part, doesn’t seem too dark inside (thinking night time safety)Thanks!
Windows came tinted. All the EV9 I've seen in the US have had the same tint, but I don't know how dark it is...sorry. We get Tesla access early next year. That will be wonderful in some of the town that are lacking other fast chargers.

Good!🎉🎉🎉🫰
A broken charger seems pretty normal. Having to mess around with Apps, with children, in a car park, doesn’t seem worth the effort.
What is your tow attachment that you are using?? and the TV setup?? I like those and my wife just got the exactly same car.
