I drove to Lindale and back and had 60 miles left. Tyler isn't that far from Lindale. (Or was that a typo and you meant to say 60 instead of 85?)
Nope, not a typo, have a S85, and it had full range charge.
T'Giving Day, Left Oak Cliff, went to pick up my Mom in far North Dallas: almost 20 miles North.
Could have tried to head straight to Whitehouse (~ 10 miles Southeast of Tyler), but by my calculations my trip would have been
much too close (including any buffer factor) to get fully back to North Dallas and then my home.
113 + 20 = 133 X 2 = 266 miles.
==>>Not going to happen.
So I decided on another tact: Went to Corsicana SC, got plenty of juice for next leg 84 miles each way (168 RT) to Whitehouse, with a little spare (weather was a bit cool).
Return trip, swung thru Corsicana SC on the way back, got enough juice for leg to North Dallas and then home.
(Bunch of small towns on this route with 45 and 35 mph speed limits.)
My point: 168 miles in an 85 is a breeze, whereas in a 60 it might be pushing the buffer factor limit.
A slightly longer drive and Yes, it added about 25 to 27 miles to each leg to go via Corsicana, but absolutely NO concern with heat, speed, range, buffer.
Just relax and enjoy the drive!
I'm tellin' ya, I could get
very spoiled using Superchargers.
