It is definitely doable since I have taken 4 trips to N.S. in the last few years. None of those have been to Halifax. If someone is going to the northern parts of the province or to PEI the ferries are just not convenient.
I have done this trip via Riviere du Loup and via Maine. It is not that one cannot do the drive, it is that it is such a long stretch from the last SC's and one more at Woodstock would have saved literally hours off the drive. And the main feeling I have is that I feel like someone has been dangling a carrot before me for two years and has now yanked it away. I am very serious when I say that a part of my decision to buy our Model S was that the drive to the Maritimes looked like it was going to be relatively almost as convenient as most other routes over North American, with the Rivière du Loup and Woodstock SC's "coming soon". R du L SC is finally up but too late for 2016's driving season? I have come to this forum for two years now watching for activity on the eastern Canadian build out and it has generally been a long frustrating vigil. Given the reply to my email I expect that the earliest we will see a SC in the Maritimes will be on the "coming in 2018" map, which probably means being built in late 2018 after the summer driving season, effectively being 5 years of waiting for me.
No question that I love the car and love the direction that the company is doing in the whole alternative energy realm to save the planet. Thanks for the opportunity to vent my frustrations. I still am an absolute fanboy of Tesla. Just a frustrated one.
