I truly had a lot of fun driving my one-month-old 2022 Model Y LR.
The pros:
Comfort,
Cost,
No ICE vehicles blocking charging stalls.
The cons:
A non-working supercharger forced a 100-mile detour without feedback from Tesla NAV. - Had to pull over to search for available superchargers,
A 5-minute wait for an available spot at Corning, CA,
Phantom braking became a nightmare on certain highways, really scary at times.
Some statistics gathered along the way:
I will post videos and photos on Youtube soon.
