We'll be taking our 2015 70D to Canada (Ottawa and Montreal) the week after next. I called Tesla to see whether the LTE connectivity would work in Canada or not. First they said "yes", followed closely by "let me check", then "only if you are close enough to the border to pickup US cell towers". Checking through the forums here there seems to be some difference of opinion here based on the age of the car?
So, any first hand knowledge? What did your car do in Canada? If I do lose connectivity will navigation still work? I thought at one point I heard that there was limited navigation even without LTE?
Worst case I can add a Canada plan to my phone and tether the car or get a rental wifi hotspot but I was hoping to avoid the expense and also don't mind being unreachable for a time, as long as I can figure out where I'm going.
My route will be up to the Cornwall SC, some kind of destination charge in Ottawa (any ideas?), then Montreal SC, then back down the Northway and Thruway with some combination of the now many SCs on that route.
Thanks
