Hi Ohmman- cool posts! Do you charge to 100% whenever you can on these road trips, or is that frowned upon?

Yes. I typically plug both in and dial the car down. I assume that the pedestal is wired for 50A service and adjust accordingly. If I'm not using power in the camper, I'll pull all 40A.I have a question -- in campground, the typical electrical fixture has both 50A and 30A outlets. Can both be used simultaneously? Can you plug the trailer into 30A and charge the car at the same time at 50A?
You're a pioneer and breaking trail for others to follow. If I had a coonskin cap I would give it to you.The lesson learned was that I should not have relied on a risky charger in no man's land. Probably obvious ahead of time, but I was very determined to see the entirety of the peninsula. Despite my issues, I'm glad I went, because it is a gorgeous park. I will keep my opinion on the park's rangers to myself.

Canada and Canadians were awfully good to us on our visit. I join you all in celebration tomorrow.Happy Canada Day tomorrow... 150 years old! So young when you think about it.
That is driving time? So averaged 42 mph while towing?I have collated and adjusted some of the TeslaFi logs, separating out my towing trips from my untethered trips at the destinations. Currently TeslaFi seems to have a bug where I can only download the trip summary for the first 15 results, but I'm working on that. I had a few locations where the Tesla was out of service, so my logs were either incorrect or missing. I omitted those from the analysis. Those areas were between Two Medicine and the Canadian border, between Merritt and near Hope (with the byway of @Canuck's lake house also off of service), and much of the Olympic peninsula.
The remaining data together are as follows:
3025.8 logged miles
5889.7 rated miles used
72 hours 6 minutes of driving
1813.7 kWh used
599 Wh/mi average
Once I can download the data, I'll post it here in tabular form so that anyone interested in individual legs can get the consumption information.
That sounds about right. It is amazing how quickly a few stops will drag down the average speed of a trip. Most highway travel was at 55 mph, with stints up to 62 and others as low as 38 (Olympic situation).That is driving time? So averaged 42 mph while towing?
Hey, you missed Victoria and Vancouver Island. I am sure my wife would have made you a nice pot of tea. Maybe next time? Thanks for the nice trip that let us come along vicariously.
Wind also would be a big factor with that much drag. At the speeds you drive when towing, drag is not much of a factor. A headwind would be an effective increase in speed that you are not including in these data.Completely worthless scatter plot of my consumption vs. average trip speed. Obviously doesn't account for slow average speed due to traffic, construction, traffic lights, etc. Also doesn't control for elevation, wind, rain. Enjoy the worthlessness!
I may download the raw data and try to tease out sections that have consistent speeds and plot them against consumption. That should be at least somewhat more valuable.
