Eyy I did a very similar trip as you 2 years ago! I live in Whitby so just 10kms East of you and I have a '22 Long Range. I got to skip Kingston and charged at Cornwall. I got to skip Montreal and charged at Quebec City (Levis) I got to skip Riviere du Loup and made it all the way to Rodeway Inn. I got lucky and got their J1772 charger overnight. The next day, we drove from Rodeway Inn to Salisbury, NB then to Charlottetown, PEI. 👍

[@MikeInTheWoods]

At Rodeway, the single J1772 was occupied both ways! Thankfully there's a Supercharger like a 10 min drive away

[@voldar70]

Nice job ! I went from Montreal to PEI this summer and was a great drive. And as you did, the car was ready to go before I was. 4 charging stops for 1100 Km on my Tesla M3 LR.

[@gerhardk98]

Quebec seems to have a lot more EVs than Ontario, also more charging opportunities.

[@samuelmyles8813]

Supper drive!!!!!!

[@chrismai1889]

I'll be joining the ranks of EV drivers tomorrow and I am very excited. I bought the same model 3, only with the trailer hook and the extended autopilot to be able to summon the car once the software is ready. great video !

[@MikeInTheWoods]

I hope it treats you well!

[@MrHacknslice]

Looking to the same trip summer in my 21sr+ and also a fellow ajax resident.

[@MikeInTheWoods]

It's a beautiful drive! If you haven't done it before, the scenery is amazing

[@TomTurnerIT]

"69 nice" Nice

[@sabrinacaruso4241]

Noice

[@TomTurnerIT]

A second nice!!!!! Did she roll her eyes at you like mine does?

[@MikeInTheWoods]

Thanks! And I did it many more times than what I left in the video. Basically every leg where the charge level hit 69% hahaha

[@sabrinacaruso4241]

I think I encourage it to be honest 😂

[@BrandonG85]

Awesome trip! I was wondering what gauge wire were you using for your extension cable? Auto pilot is defiantly a champ indeed even under bad conditions.

[@MikeInTheWoods]

Don't know the gauge, but it's rated for 15A

RIP American Tim Hortons aka "Burger King" we miss the original Tim Hortons quality 😔. August 26, 2014 was a very sad day, Burger King agreed to merge with Tim Hortons for US $11.4 billion. The two chains became subsidiaries of Toronto based holding company Restaurant Brands International😔. No more roasted red peppers on their Farmer breakfast burritos do to the added cost of red peppers 😔. No more beautiful nutritional Crisp & Green Romaine lettuce put on sandwiches, but now instead brown shredded iceberg lettuce 🤮😔. No more high quality honey mustard spread on the turkey club sandwich do to the add cost for the Burger King chain👎. Do you remember the delicious heavy, dense and chewy sub rolls of the 90's and early 2000's Tim Hortons used to use for their sub sandwiches, i do so yummy 😋. The sad part is the general public doesn't even notice these atrocities and losses 🤷. Somehow they accept the corn syrup that is now used for the chocolate chip muffins as an acceptable sugar substitute 🤷. RIP Tim Hortons restaurant😥 i will always remember what you used to be😑. Way to go Burger King💪🙄 you must be killing it in the profit margin right now🖕. Thanks for ruining a Western New York tradition since 1984 (in Tonawanda, NY)😔. You should thank God for Canadian public👍 they will never jump ship on Tim Hortons Burger King, they are way to loyal for that to happen 🤷. 🖕BK you don't deserve to use the name Tim Hortons now shame on you 👉. As far as the video thank you very much you really opened my eyes to the possibility of EV's. ✌️

[@TomTurnerIT]

Tim Hortons is gross and has been for a long time 😂

[@flipflat4814]

@@TomTurnerIT Yes👍. The honey mustard turkey bacon club when first released in 07'ish was decent. It was top of the line cold-cut turkey back then minimally processed with a really good 10" or 5" sub roll. It's been 16 years since they offered a full size 10 inch submarine sandwich 🤷.

[@Judge1616]

Curious of the cost to charge for this trip. Overall costs, Difference between provinces etc.

[@MikeInTheWoods]

I tally it up at the end of the video
