No fair flying to Salisbury Brit - that just wouldn't be FUN!
Of course not! The only way to travel is by Tesla :smile:
Doh!! So my wife/I had been talking about maybe going out to OC, MD (a favorite of ours) for our daughters' end of summer break. There is a span of about 2 weeks in mid-August after camp ends but before school resumes that would be perfect for us. Anyhow... that trip is in discussions...
That being said, I may be able to come check this out perhaps--- alone. Doubt we could make it work with wife/kid due to distance from Cleveland, Ohio. But I'll be staying tuned to details because, you just never know... curious who will be traveling the farthest to this event.
Probably why you said your airplanes were just sitting there for a while huh? haha!

I'm hoping to make it from Chicago! I'm 50/50 at this point.
This year we expect to accommodate many more cars with six Supercharger stalls and additional charging located nearby. Model S and Roadster owners will get together, talk about all things Tesla, take a scenic drive and have some fun on the beach in Ocean City, MD. We also plan to have a reception Friday night and an event dinner Saturday evening.
Hmm. Caravan
Either way, I'm going to keep this event on my radar. I've made the drive before in 8-9 hours in an ICE... but with a need to stop to S/C every 2-hours for 30-40mins, the drive would be 11-12-hours each way, making it hard to make happen based on the dates chosen... so take lots of pics for those of us who may not make it
Obviously I wasn't there lasts year in DC ... but WRT to the 2015 Event ... i'm curious what chargers you are referring to as "additional charging nearby" ?? I've mapped our OC, MD and surrounding areas, and other than two hotels in Rehoboth Beach (where only patrons can charge), there is just the single Supercharger in Salisbury in what I would call a "reasonable distance" of the planned event location. There are some 120/240 chargers here or there, mostly at dealerships .. or ones that charge such as the university at the south end of Salisbury.
(FWIW, if I went there with the family, the only driving we'd prob do is up to Dogfish Head for a meal-- which is a great suggestion of a place to go, except if you have 50+ people then you'll be too large a group for their small restaurant). But that being said... for us the single supercharger would suffice.

What is all this talk about stopping for 30-40 minutes each time?
Totally agree with EVERYTHING you said.
With 6.1 it makes it even easier to really see what is going on with your range. It isn't like you are just going to randomly run out. You should be able to tell within about the first 20-30 minutes of driving how your range should really pan out. It will all make sense when you get to your first stop, at least it did for me. By the time I had finished getting to my destination in FL on my first road trip I was confident enough to only be putting a 10 mile buffer on what I thought I needed. And would arrive with 10-15 miles of range left.
