Hi all,
Im thinking of buying a Tesla but Im concerned about the ease of making trips to Miami or the east and west coast beaches. I go to one or the other almost monthly.
Can any of you share your experiences please?
1- Do you have to worry a bit and plan ahead to try and charge your car at the Tesla Service stations when you visit Tampa area? Are they 24/7 or only during working hours?
2- I think they opened a super-chager near New Smyrna (if I'm not mistaken) - any experience there? Do you have to plan to spend a couple of hours at the station or longer so you're Fully charged and safe to go back?
3- St. Port Lucie/Fort Pierce Super-charger - HOW long does it really take to charge? Have there been any problems? The website clearly says charge time slows down after 75-80% is charged. It could take almost an hour (55min) or MORE to get 170 miles worth of charge …… So what is your experience
4- Once you get to Miami (or wherever you went) And you're half full again - NOW WHAT ?
How do you drive around with peace of mind? Can you charge easily in Miami? or Orlando? or Tampa/St Pete ?
Even if someone is kind enough to lend you a HPWC - apart from the embarrassment and awkwardness of having to bother them - It is still going to take several hours until the car is Full again..
I do not have a second gas car I can use for trips so these questions are really important for me.
Please provide any honest feedback you can.
Either I order my Tesla now or I get something else and order the Tesla a few years later when HOPEFULLY things will be easier. Just please tell me how hard it is.
DO YOUR WIVES COMPLAIN DURING TRIPS ?? (Me being a 31 female I would be able to relate to them much better! I really want to know! )
Thanks for your feedback
