    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Those temps happen maybe 5-10 days per year at best......not exactly cost effective to procure and swap to winter tires in that environment. We've owned/driven BMW's with summer tires year round (Pilot Sports) for years with no issues so long as you don't drive like you're at the track.

    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Bumping this back to the top with an update on the outcome for those that come across this thread in the future while researching a purchase. We did end up taking delivery of a 2022 M3P in mid-December. After 8,250 miles to date in the coldest months of the year here in AR, we are averaging...

    CCS Adapter for North America

    Has anyone from the US attempted to order from the Korea online store successfully? It will validate compatibility with my M3P based on my US Tesla account, populates my stored payment info, but I can't seem to get an address entered that doesn't note the location is in Korea. I'd love to...

    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Thanks all for the continued replies. Sounds like this may not be too far out of the realm of possibility. It's more of a case of getting spooked by some of the ABRP projections and the fear of the 'range anxiety wrath' lol. The P vs. the LR discussion is more looks for her and the...

    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Route is the west side of LR to Russellville. Other than a couple L2's at UCA and Hendrix in Conway, That's about it for charging currently. The EA station in Clarksville isn't really practical since it adds another 30-45min to the trip by going past the destination. Electric in AR is pretty...

    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Appreciate all of the quick responses. Seems to validate my concerns that this route is on the fringe of a bullet proof use case. Arkansas is in a bit of a Tesla desert having only started getting SC's about 18 months ago and Dallas being the closest galleries. Tulsa and Memphis are the...

    Model 3 LR/P - 170 mile commute suitability

    Later this year the wife will potentially be taking a new job role which will involve a roughly 170 mile round trip daily commute. 95% of that would be on freeways/interstates with 75% of that on rural interstates with a 75mph speed limit. I immediately thought that a Model 3 would be perfect...
