That's 48% of the battery to go 100 miles, or roughly 2 miles per percentage point. Given that you indicated that your driving speed is around 80MPH with A/C on, that's pretty normal. I find that my MYP usually gets between 2~2.5 miles per percentage point in the summer when I have A/C on, depending on how hard the A/C is working. I rarely go faster than 70 MPH on the highway, so 80MPH is going to take another bite out of the efficiency.Ok let me ask if this is normal. I start with 80% charge. I drive a total of 100 miles, it goes to 32%. Is that normal?
Think of your Tesla as a cellphone. You plug it in every night don't you?I dunno maybe I’m still on gas mentality. But like plugging or filing up your car every day is just weird comparing to just filling up your car with gas once a month. Just gotta get used to it.
Obviously, me too. Seventy five mph is the sweet spot I have found in both cars (MS/MY) At 80 I notice a big increase in energy consumption. Driving 12 hours the 5mph makes a bit of a difference. Between the Space Coast and Orlando you probably wouldn't notice (except in your head) Someone on here said don't drive faster (consume energy) faster than you can charge to replace it.I live in Florida. I don’t turn on the heat. Hahah. But I do keep the ac on. But not that high. And as far as cruising, depends on where I am but I’m usually at 80mph on the highway.
That might seem like abnormally high battery usage, but for Florida in the summer, maybe it's not. What did the Trips screen show as your Wh/mi and Total Energy for the 100-mile trip?Ok let me ask if this is normal. I start with 80% charge. I drive a total of 100 miles, it goes to 32%. Is that normal?
Generally you will get 80-85% of the rated range....unless you drive slower.Ok let me ask if this is normal. I start with 80% charge. I drive a total of 100 miles, it goes to 32%. Is that normal?
In case it helps: When we bought our MYLR AWD last fall, we joined a new owner presentation and the one thing the presenter kept repeating was: A plugged in Tesla is a happy Tesla. So we keep our MY plugged in all the time when not in use.I thought you’re not supposed to.

I drive 16 miles round trip to work at good speed. With trips to the gym, etc I put on maybe 200 miles per week. I charge to 85% once a week at home, usually Sunday night (I plug in to charge Sunday night when I take out the trash). Once in awhile I make a longer trip for work so I might need an extra charge mid week.I don’t go to a supercharger. I charge at home. But I charge to 80% mostly. On weekdays, usually just couple miles. Maybe 10. Weekends usually is when I hit 100 miles.
Toyota has better quality.Absolutely I regret buying a MSP. My Mercedes SL 550 Roadster was twice as nice as the Tesla. The silly software and buggy things like XM radio, A/ C performance, poor build, hot glass roof…etc, etc. I made a big mistake buying the overpriced yuppy golf cart. Compared to my Porsche and Mercedes, there is nothing resembling luxury about the Tesla model S Plaid.
mmm I dunno about that.Going back to a gas car is like going back 25 years in time travel. Nope. No way, No how. Not ever.
Is your commute from the Space Coast to Orlando? I've got the same commute! I'll look out for you on the road.Obviously, me too. Seventy five mph is the sweet spot I have found in both cars (MS/MY) At 80 I notice a big increase in energy consumption. Driving 12 hours the 5mph makes a bit of a difference.

Can you share your thoughts on the maintenance differences?Just curious but does anyone have regrets about getting a tesla over a gas car? I had a BMW and traded it for my model Y and I kinda regret it.
