Tesla is not offering free supercharging on any new models any longer. Elon stated that free supercharging is not sustainable.

This resulted in my getting my license suspended as in NH if you are under 21 any violation results in a license suspension. i tried to argue with the cop about it and he threatened me and told me he would write me a reckless operation fine as well because i removed it while driving if i didnt shut up. was a wild experience

They did mention that 21" wheels are a factory option. I think its just an objectivley impracticle size wheel, see new Honda type R owners downsizing their 21s to 19 because of the same blown tyres.

[@Zobeid]

Those 21 inch wheels and low-profile tires are notorious, and you can find other road trips documented on KZbin that were sabotaged by them. There have even been cases where a pothole took out two wheels at once. Yet somehow people keep shelling out for them. Expensive rims, expensive tires, less efficiency, worse ride, easy to break, but “they look so cool!”

[@TheEldarz]

I own Model 3 (DM) and STi so this episode hits close to home. As you can guess, my family ends up taking Tesla on long road trips and STi stays at home. Having done both east coast and west coast trips, I want to point out few pros/cons: 1. Most Teslas will have Autopilot, thus long road trips are a lot more relaxing because the car does most of the driving. 2. Range anxiety with Tesla is still there. As noted in the video, the car will tell you to slow down to reach the next destination. Sometimes you are driving below the speed limit and semi trucks are passing you at a lot higher speeds - I don’t like that feeling at all. 3. Supercharging stations are not all the same as there are plenty that cannot do 150KW, this means that you are going to be stuck charging for very, very long time. 4. Tesla (or any EV) range during winter’s cold temperatures is really bad, especially when combined with highway speeds of 70+ mph.

[@VoxelLoop]

I own a Model 3 Performance, I'd say range axiety exists more before you set off on your road trip! It's easy to sit and plan all your stops, worrying that maybe you'll arrive with

The Supercharging network is definitely constantly improving. I have no doubt that nationwide supercharging (or other charging) networks would catch up and exceed what we have today in a few years.

[@anubiis7597]

Nothing will ever replace the sweet symphony of a real engine, whether it's a turbo setup or just a big NA monster, it'll always be a part of driving that engages you and makes the drive worth while. You wouldn't be able to wind down the window of a Tesla and hear the exhaust notes sing throughout the valleys in rural New Zealand.

As an entertainment AV Pro, the only improvements I see that can be made at this point are super fine-tuning, yet similarly, catastrophic upgrades to film/recording/tech/garage gear, not to mention expert personnel that would act as a "Supercharger" to your content (i.e. a full-fledged Hollywood film crew).

This is interesting with complete opposite ends of the spectrum. Definitely wouldn’t roadtrip a racecar, but roadtripping with either gas or eV would be fun. EV forces you to stop and stretch, enjoy the nearby sights and what not but gas would have more convenience. Both are pretty doable by the looks of it; unless of course your back crumbles from the lack of comfort Other opposite ends that would be cool to see would be supercar/suv/high-end sports cars vs econobox/city car/cheap car; or even hybrids at opposite ends of the spectrum. Wonderful work on this production! Looking forward to seeing this continue =D

[@grantapalooza998]

I wish car culture kept up with the idea that not every car has to be a racecar and handle on rails. For road trips I'd rather have something quiet and comfortable so I can look at the scenery and talk to people without yelling. Electric cars are great for an everyday car and as battery tech gets cheaper and better, we should embrace it.

[@seangauthier8144]

I've driven a Tesla model 3 with my family from Toronto ON to Orlando Florida, and there is no range anxiety at all, because you set your destination, and the car tells you where to stop and for how long. Also, there was only one time that my family was ready before the car was because super chargers are crazy fast, (and free with referal codes). The other reason that the model 3 was amazing is because I only had to do about 5% of the driving thanks to AP, and even though I still need to pay attention at all times to what is going on, not having to do the micro adjustments saves more energy than you would think.

I daily drive a Ralliart with bucket seats (bride stradia ii) and 4 point road legal harness (left shoulder belt snaps when you push forward hard, i.e. in a head on collision, making it effectively a regular 3 point belt so your neck doesn’t snap). I can say that it’s very easy to get used to. It is admittedly a bit hectic to get into the seat and strap yourself in. But honestly once you are in its way more comfortable than you think. I can barely sit on a normal car seat with 3 point belts any more.

[@WARXion]

The cinematography at 28:39 is just heart warming.

[@ashketchem9397]

I look at the front end of that Tesla, and I immediately get Gen Coupe vibes. Absolutely love the look

[@SquatSimp]

Awesome episode! Those 21" rims looked badass on the Tesla, I was sad to see them go

[@michaeltrinidad1217]

Never go past 19 inch rims. The wheels become unreliable with low profile tires and sacrifice ride comfort

[@jeremiahjohnson3018]

31:18 Literally what you do the day after bootcamp.

[@andiachmadzaqly6071]

Cant believe this video was 4 years old already ,The editing and the video was great that it look like a new video❤

[@iyot1020]

i drove my evo from california to tx and back..... it was love hate relationship but doing 90mph on heavy TX rain storm and not having full grip was putting a smile in my face immensely

[@sassiest2053]

"A huge infrastructure of charging stations to rival that of gas stations" In all of Australia there is a total of 35 Supercharger stations(In Brisbane the only one is at the Tesla dealership), there are 500 destination chargers(A fraction of the speed of a supercharger) and over 6400 petrol stations. Even putting aside, the time difference it takes to charger, there is still no comparison here in terms of infrastructure. Of course, I understand that petrol has been around for a hell of a lot longer than Telsa so it is hard to compare, but when you a specifically pitting them against each other in practically, this has to be mentioned. I would also like to note I would still VERY much love to own a Tesla if I am one day able to put my own Tesla charger in my house despite all of these facts.

[@uwulol19]

Every other continent has thousands of superchargers, I also live in Australia and the government is making us fall so far behind in electric cars and I hate it so much

[@xDCxANDREW]

I live in California near LA, and have superchargers all around my area, but I never use them because I just charge at home with a nema 14-50 outlet (washing machine outlet).

[@ljp4008]

I like tesla but I don't like how I'm watching the downfall of my passion and hobby.

[@AvocationStudios]

@@ljp4008 Electric may be here to stay but I don't think gas cars are going anywhere for a very long time, even if they end up being just for motorsports

[@koruki]

You can charge with a normal wall plug at your house lol

[@xoxoj]

Daaaamn that evo looks sick

[@esaedvik]

G&G: "Obviously, you can't do that in a Tesla" Kyle Conner and Matthew Davis: Does 2,800 mi NYC to LA in 45 h 16 mins.

[@Zozo806]

from 2012?

[@strandvaskeren]

When I enter NYC to LA into google maps it figures it will take a regular car obeying the speed limits 41 hours. The fastest petrol car to do the same trip is 26 hours - probably not obeying the speed limits all the way. A Tesla "cannonball'ing" takes 45 hours and that is somehow supposed to be impressive? ..and yeah I get that on a 40+ hour trip a few hours more isn't that big a deal, but we are still talking an EV trying to go at optimal speed not quite keeping up with a regular car cruising casually.

[@esaedvik]

@@strandvaskeren Never said it was impressive. It is for an EV though. It's also quite a bit cheaper. I get that Americans are used to almost free gas, but us who pay 8 bucks a gallon, it's a bit of a different kinda contrast when getting an EV.

[@aleksisoukkala]

@Jasonsenipor or is it more like you can afford a tesla because you dont need to pay 8 bucks a gallon.

[@g00gle.me.bichez]

OMG!! @ 28:50 the sunset is absolutely surreal, ive never seen a sunset like that!

[@Anton-gz1go]

6:55 „Gas is really cheap right know“

[@felixk.4135]

31:18 the stig when the old top gear left him.

[@Myemnhk]

Lmao imagine having to stop for 1 hour 15 minutes every 350 miles while a gas car takes 4 minutes per 400

[@rileythompson336]

Y’all drove through my home town of Charleston West Virginia, stopped at the Superchargers at the Marriott and passed the exit to my house.

[@peewee7405]

It was cool to see them in Chas.Wv, my families home town also. I know exactly where they were, been there during a car show.

[@EvanMoon]

I like the pops in bangs from the exhaust on that Tesla

[@zildog]

These guys are actually pretty enjoyable to watch. NGL.
