    Road Trip - Model Y

    Agree! Only meant to share my first road-tripping experience, as I bet others are doing their first EV road-tripping, too, because, as you point out, EV is only just beginning.

    Road Trip - Model Y

    I don't disagree. I assume I'm pretty "average" though, so thought my experience might inform others so they can plan accordingly in their roadtrip.

    Road Trip - Model Y

    I appreciate your reply and agree with your assessment of my critique. I spent literally hours reading posts and blogs about EV road-tripping before setting off on our trip and my review was solely meant to share my experience, not intended to criticize Tesla. I'm a seeker of information so I...

    Road Trip - Model Y

    Great points! We did that and loved that the map would update while we were supercharging to show how much charge you'd have left at the next charger. I think because of where we were driving, it wouldn't give us enough to get all the way to the next supercharger in the insanely cold...

    Road Trip - Model Y

    We are actually a one-car household (childfree makes it easy) and we don't take many roadtrips at all. For around town, which is 99% of our driving, this is perfect, as you mentioned. We reviewed and drove several EVs and most felt like they were rushed to market. The Tesla was absolutely our...

    Road Trip - Model Y

    We took our first road trip in a 2023 Model Y LR during the recent winter weather. We went from Chicago-land to Northern Florida and back. Before we went, I read every thread here about traveling with the Tesla, so thought I'd share some notes to try to help someone else. Here's what we learned...

    Anyone have a recommendation for a PPF installer in the Naperville area? I'm willing to drive a bit for a high-quality installation. Thank you, in advance!

    Illinois Waiting Room

    It seems like a lot of orders may be canceled upon getting delivery dates because people don't want 2022 deliveries. It seems like a lot of people are hoping the 2023 tax credit (whatever that may be) will be worth the wait of a new order. We'll likely see more decisions once the details of the...

    Illinois Waiting Room

    EDD window decreased from Dec - Apr to December. With an LR I assumed I would be waiting until at least April. I wonder if people are starting to cancel orders to avoid 2022 deliveries.
