950 miles in two days. Taking an electric road trip in a Tesla

[thecloud]

A really positive article from CNN that covers the current reality of taking a road trip in a Tesla, versus 6 years ago:
CNN - Breaking News, Latest News and Videos

One of my favorite quotes from the article: "Tesla Superchargers are just cooler than other EV chargers, many of which look like vacuum cleaners strapped to poles and left to die. Tesla's, on the other hand, look like something you wouldn't mind having in your living room. Also, they're fast."

950 miles in two days is a walk in the park.

Just did 1100 miles in a day

But It's great to see some positive news in the mainstream media.

My favorite quote from the article was:

“...I decided I was safer on a long, monotonous drive using the system than not using it. I was safer, that is, if I used Autopilot the way it was intended and not, as some people have, as a substitute for driving. Autopilot does not make you a passenger. It makes you a less tired driver. I was still driving all the time, but with help from cameras and sensors to keep the car in its lane, maintain a safe distance from other cars and assist with lane changes. My eyes were still on the road, my hands were still on the steering wheel.”

This is a perfect explanation for the uninitiated to understand.

That article's narrative is similar to what I experienced on my first (and so far, only) road trip in my Model 3:
