So if you have CCS, you do your homework, research all the chargers, read the forums, and push it to the limit, then it's a coin flip between losing to the Tesla by a few hours, and losing to the Tesla by a few minutes.

It's recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 20% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

1350 Miles in 24 hours in a 2018 Model 3 AWD LR. We got the call, my mom was in hospice, only a few days to live. After a couple of bad overnight drives, we have always stayed at hotel. We decided this trip warranted an over night drive. The Model 3 and the supercharger network performed flawlessly. The two things that stood out was autopilot and how comfortable the seats where for the passenger to sleep. We averaged 57 MPH. It was mostly in the Northeast and the Midwest, where the speed limits are 65-70 versus 75-80 for the race. The faster speeds might change the average speed.

[@simonzebu3563]

I think you are doing a fantastic job of teaching EV owners that you can reach places with less than 5% rather than the human tendency to start panicking at 20%, However, in the real world, almost nobody has your deep knowledge of volts, amps and watts in relation to charging speed, miles/kw, kw/mile etc etc. Not every journey is a Cannonball run and not every driver has the colossal breadth of your knowledge of which chargers work how etc.

[@scottw595]

Not a good habit less than 5% for sure.

[@darwinboor1300]

Have you considered using the updated a better route planner (ABRP) and super charger info webpages? The best ABRP route planning for the Model S Plaid appears to be Beaver, UT (250 kW for 30 minutes), Green River, UT (150 for 21), Parachute, CO (250 for 13), and Edwards, CO (250 for 19). (83 charging minutes) In dire contrast, the Tesla Trip Planner suggests St. George, UT (250 for 15), Beaver, UT (250 for 10), Richfield, UT (150 for 25 ONLY 4 STALLS), Green River, UT (150 for 20), Grand Junction, CO (150 for 25), and Glenwood Springs, CO (150 for 55). (153 charging minutes). That is an extra 70 minutes of charging and 2 more stops (est. 20 minutes of driving time) using the Tesla Trip Planner. Clearly the Tesla Trip Planner is not ready for prime time trip planning.

[@ArtiePenguin1]

It seemed like Colton had ABRP on his iPhone for backup but didn't deviate too much from Tesla's trip planning. Agreed on ABRP being pretty good when it comes to calculating charging stops. For me in an EV6 with no route planning, ABRP is a godsend.

[@OhioKeef]

I think I head the words “ripped, charging curve, and epic” more in these 3 videos than in my entire life😂. Enjoyed every minute of it.

[@BroncoPH]

What a fantastic series guys. Incredibly educational and this is the kind of content that will really help with EV adoption in the future. EV companies need to downplay the “total range at 100%” number. I understand that marketing wise it is what ICE drivers understand but the usefulness of the driving distance on a 100% charge is interesting at best and misleading at worst. I hope they focus on and improve the overall charging curve of these vehicles. How fast my EV can DC charge from 1%-80% is a far more important metric than overall miles. The longer an EV can hold 250-350Kw during a charging session creates far more time savings on road trips than the extra mileage you may get one time off your 100% home charge. When I roadtrip in my EV I still never charge to 100% at home because I charge up as much as I need to to comfortably get to my first charging stop and then begin the charger hopping experience. I get that for serious road warriors stopping every 150 miles is not acceptable, but for those of us with kids and pets it’s hardly a sacrifice. I just want those stops to be 1) filled with reliable charging infrastructure that delivers the kw it advertises, 2) the car charging curve to accept that max power for as long as possible before massively tapering off (up to 70%-80% would be amazing), and 3) there to be some minimal amenities where we stop for food and bathroom breaks. Can’t wait for your next series like this.

[@amoskowitz0103]

[@michaelbarbieri]

Kyle....first off...THANKS SO MUCH!!!! for the content you create and what you do for the EV community. I love watching the Out of Spec channels and your content is very informative and entertaining. Second...I have an idea for you. Now that we have seen what expert road trippers can do in these cars, I think the public and I would love to see what would happen if this race was done from a different perspective. That is, making the same trip but doing as a Non-road tripping expert. Just punching in your destination and following the car's trip planner. Let's see how long it would take the car and the charging infrastructure to get just your normal Joe that knows nothing about EV road tripping to the destination and/or back. After all the goal of most, if not all, EV manufacturers is to make it as easy and simple to travel with these cars as possible. I hope you will consider my suggestion.

[@ArtiePenguin1]

Unfortunately trip planning is a necessity for any EV driver. If you choose more budget options, some EVs don't even give you a competent trip planner at all (like E-GMP cars with Gen 5W infotainment system). The best solution I'd say is just to use ABRP (a better route planner) and not bother with most in-car nav or trip planning.

[@tomkennedy3123]

@@ArtiePenguin1 I have been driving a Tesla for 4 years now. Travel up and down the East Coast many times and I simply follow the Tesla default trip planning and have never had an issue. Are you saying I would have a problem in a Tesla going coast to coast? Or are you saying if you drive a non-Tesla, you have to plan your trip? Honest question.

[@ArtiePenguin1]

@tomkennedy3123 No, my comment was only referring to most non-Teslas requiring trip planning. There are only a few manufacturers who do trip planning almost as good as Tesla. Some like Polestar and Porche come to mind.

[@jmleon92]

[@larrywineland4682]

No criticisms here, totally fair assessment of DCFC on that route. The only conclusions that can be drawn though is that with THIS particular style of road tripping (trying to make a trip in one day as fast as possible with minimal breaks) is that the Lucid and Taycan are within 6 minutes of a Tesla even with the bad charging infrastructure. Also most Tesla owners don't have free supercharger charging like you do @outofspecmotoring , so I think one must consider the big picture, that the Taycan is a super cool Porsche with better than EPA range but less comfort and space and range than the Lucid, and the Tesla is the tecchy noisy bumpy car that has great charging experiences but otherwise lacks the elegance and relaxation of the Lucid. So would most road trippers say "wow, I'll say forget the Taycan and Lucid cuz the Tesla won by 6 minutes"? I sincerely doubt it.

[@vinay8429]

Entertaining content! But If these cars were so close in a 12hr race, then it doesn't matter in terms of which one is a good road tripper. All of these are good. Kyle was complaining about Lucid most of the time. But I would take the comfort of lucid any day on such long trips.

[@dianapennepacker6854]

Kind of surprised me how good the Porsche did. I figured the Tesla would do better simply due to charging statons. Like significantly better. I'd take the Lucid myzelf. Hopefully they don't go bankrupt as for all intent and purposes I have read they are the better cars, but Tesla can pop out new cars faster with newer innovations. Now I want to see other EVs. Seen a new vehicle on the road a month ago. Didn't know what it was as the vehicle had a logo I've never seen, but it was an EV due to the acceleration, and looked absolutely sick. Turned out to be a Kia EV6 GT and I couldn't believe it. I detested Kias my whole life. Cars of uber woke college kids. Crap range, but it is ridiculously fast for the price. Yet I would buy it just cause it is supposed to be really fun to deive.

I've done 9,500 miles of road tripping since then, my longest road trip was 4,700 miles during Thanksgiving week, and not once did I have to wait for a charger.
