That's the problem, according to plugshare there aren't any level 2 chargers until you get to Kerrville where there is a KOA. Might be enough but there is a lot of nothing out there before he gets to that point.Find a level 2 charger along your route and stop for 30 minutes to charge. You'll be glad you did.
I just did a 217 mile leg at around 32 degrees. I had charged to 90% and had to keep my speed to around 60mph I think, kept the heater at 65 (wore coat and used seat warmer) and there was a large drop in elevation. I also had range mode on and I got there with about 16% remaining. Mind you I probably only had a payload of 400-500 lbs with 3 people and some luggage. As they said above, keep an eye on your trip energy consumption and you should be fine.How would you all feel doing 222 miles in a P90D?
At 70 degrees, speed 1.0, 800 payload (19 tires), pretty flat, EV trip planner says 217, OK seems fine.
At 32 degrees it says 257 miles....too close I think?
Consider if there is an accident or some other obstruction that causes a delay. I wouldn't do it, too risky...
But... This. I assume this is operational now, or if not it will be any day now.I'm surprised I haven't seen it mentioned yet. Tesla apparently heard your wishes - about a month ago they started construction on an eight stall Supercharger in Junction, TX - right near the halfway point of that final leg. Construction times vary, but it should be operational within the next month or two:

The only difference between your scenario and his is that his 100% rated range is 294 so while cutting it very close it's "possible".270 miles on a single charge, would be way too stressful for me to bother trying. Knowing I'd have to pay attention every second of the way, wondering "will I make it". Having to slow down and make the stressful trip even longer. I'd look for a charging option of some sort along the way and not stress about it. Check hotels with L2 chargers or Tesla wall chargers. Plan your trip with a stop for lunch/dinner and add 30-40 miles of range during your stop so you can have a relaxing, stress free trip.

I've done 220 with my S85 and have had plenty left over (up to 60-80 miles). Start with a range charge. Drive a bit slow at first to see how the energy use is doing.How would you all feel doing 222 miles in a P90D?
If you had charged to 100% you could have set the heat on 70 instead.I just did a 217 mile leg at around 32 degrees.

It will not hurt the battery to charge to 100%, just don't charge it and then let it sit for all day at that level.
