I’m going to be traveling from Knoxville, TN to Gulf Shores, AL in a Model X 100D. Both Tesla maps and A Better Route Planner have me stopping in Chattanooga for a charge 90 miles in.
In my mind the better option is to leave fully charged and drive to the Steele, AL supercharger. It’s 200 miles from home and a lot more convenient. Plus, it would seem more efficient to arrive there with 20 to 30% battery left than top off a 60 to 70% battery in Chattanooga.
Both Tesla and ABRP have me stopping in Chattanooga, Birmingham and Greeeneville, AL.
My thought is Steele, AL and Greeneville, AL superchargers instead. I might make Steele a quick stop and still stop in Birmingham for lunch since there’s a lot better options for food there.
Knoxville > Steele, AL 200 miles
Steele > Greeneville, AL 177 miles
Thoughts?
