We recently took delivery of our Tesla Model Y and typically visit family around Thanksgiving driving from Charlotte, NC to Orlando. FL. In the past we've always used our ICE van and beyond some heavier traffic haven't had a problem.
We'd like to take the Model Y down but I've read stories from years past with huge waits at superchargers during the holidays. We have 3 kids and I think if the route calculated from a better route planner is correct, everything would be fine. But if you throw in an extra 30-45 minutes at each stop either due to having to wait for other vehicles or slow charging, it will be a horrible trip.
Are we better off just taking our ICE vehicle around holidays or should a Thanksgiving trip in the Tesla be ok?
