Winnemucca, NV. to Boise ID. via route 95

[Danlstewart]

Has anyone tried this route? Route 95 looks desolate. No chargers and it's about 260 miles. I'm driving a 2020 Md X Long Range. Total route is from SF Bay to Boise.

Drive 60 or 65.
Overall downhill.

Hey guys! This thread was really helpful in giving me some backup charging options when going through this route. I have a Tesla Model 3 LR and charged at Winnemucca to 100%. I drove 65 mph and I eventually reached Boise with 3%. The Tesla trip navigator estimated that I would have 15% charge remaining. It's possible, but a little nerve wracking to run low. The discrepancy in remaining percentage was likely due to rain and wind on the last 30 min of the trip.

Just wanted to give you guys some feedback that it is possible. Total 253 miles in 4 hours at 60-65 mph

Excellent. Glad it worked out. If I'm ever close I watch the 'projected range' screen closely. Helpful for the driver and passengers

Rain kills your range. At least you made it!

The new sw update 2022.16.1.1 does factor in wind factor as well as outside temperature to give a better estimation of power consumption and residual battery charge upon arrival.
