1:13 It's called not succumbing to peer pressure... I've done a roadtrip from California to Florida and back in my Model Y going 55-60mph the whole way except on roads where there were single lanes where people couldn't get around, and then on the way back from Texas to California I did 80-90 the whole way. There is no reason to go the same speed as others that are speeding. At the slower speeds I got 180-240 wh/mi and at the higher speeds I got 350-460+wh/mi. That's nearly double the energy used as well as a lot more stress on the tires, motors, risk of rock chips, more bug splatter, etc. We all decide what is worth more to us. Those higher speeds have a lot of downsides.

I've done 6 road trips of 1450 to 1670 miles with my Model Y and find that it's very relaxing and not much slower than a gas Suv. Charging has never been a problem and get out and walking every 3 plus hours is great and the Charging average is 25 minutes. If you figure the time I save not getting gas at home 2 times a week and never getting oil changes I save many hours each year. Plus home charging costs $7 or less for 200 plus miles and never standing outside in Michigan winters watching my gas fillup is awesome.

I appreciate you watching and commenting. Please keep in mind that the CT will eventually have the ability to charge at 350kw which will speed up the charge times. And I had no intention of being there that long but the restaurant took forever 😩

You didn't get the wheel covers replaced, they cut into the tires, look it up. More design flaws

Cut into the tires? They rub a little but nothing to be concerned about as long you keep the inflation at the recommended psi

@@Butter_EV Not according to the stuff i seen, it wears the sidewalls really dangerously bad. Take them off till you get new stuff, not good

These cars are still not built for road trips. Extremely inefficient when it comes to charging

Hoping 350kw charging fixed that 🤞🏼

Why would I stop at a gas pump and not fill it full? this only charge to 80% is ludicrous
@Butter_EV10 ай бұрын
EVs are totally different from ICE vehicles. It is best to get the battery down to 20% and charge to 80%. Helps to get you the fastest charge possible
@DonkeyKong5778310 ай бұрын
It would be like the last 4 gallons coming out at 1 cup per minute. It takes longer to go from 80% to 100% than 20% to 80%. It takes longer to top up each cell

And bad spot for airbag being released. The old 10 and 2 is obsolete it's now 9 and 3, to allow airbag deployment, and not getting your arms blasted to smack you in the face. that steering wheel is another dumb idea. Way too fat A pillar poor visibility. Large computer screen to slice ya up in a wreck. there is so much wrong with this kitchen knife on wheels

I will never plan around charging and adding hours to my trip

It can definitely be frustrating to have to plan around charging stops during a trip.

like this channel but this video sucked, too confusing for someone who does not own an electric car.

I’m sorry that you didn’t enjoy it. What exactly “sucked”. I’m always open to constructive criticism as I want to improve
