I just started driving my Aug 2018 X 100D and am planning my first trip with my wife. Hoping some of the old-timers with Tesla X's can give their view on which trip planner to put your trust in as I'm a tad nervous.
I've tried Tesla's version, and found it bases its planning with current SOC, and time of day for current traffic. It also doesnt appear to allow user-specific routes, so what I did was select a supercharger on the way that forces it to use my desired route. But I then can't specify to plan a route from that SC to my final destination. So I have to estimate that last leg.
I then tried A Better Route Planner but again don't see a way to specify the route I want. But using the same method as above also gives different SC stops.
I tried EV Trip Planner and it allows you to specify your route, but it doesn't have the X 100D to select, only the P90D, so again the SC's it uses are different from either of the above.
Am I missing understanding features in these or what recommendations do you suggest?
My trip starts from my home at 100% charge in Alpine, CA and I then go hwy 8 to 67 to 52 to 805 to 5 to 73 toll rd to 405 to 101 to San Luis Obispo then 1 all the way to Monterey, CA to enjoy that scenic coast drive. My driving style is smooth and at or slightly above posted speeds, 20" rims.
