    100% or 80%.... myth?? [preparing for a road trip]

    you will discover that there is no real reason to charge above 80% with a supercharger while traveling. For my two round-trips NJ-FLA, charging from 5% to 80% took the same amount of time as charging from 80% to 100%. It simply is not worth my time waiting for the car to charge above 80% on a...

    100% range on new Model Y LR with 3 miles on it calculates to 301 miles

    you will discover that charging the car to 80% while traveling is much more satisfying that charging to 100%. I have done two NJ-FLA round-trips now. The charging time for going from 5% to 80% is the same as charging from 80% to 100%. It is simply not worth my time waiting for the car to...

    Park assist looks like crap!

    thanks for the info. Regarding the line for Carlisle, Pa item in the chart, there is a Supercharger in Denver , Pa on I76/PA-turnpike eastbound that I have used. This is between the 266 and 326 mile markers, but I can't recall the exact place. There is a west-bound charger at milemarker 305.

    Nail in tire, what an experience... [difficulty getting it patched due to foam in tire]
