I've been itching to take a drive. I think we may drive out to Lovelock, NV, have a picnic and drive back to the lake.
It would be good to get out and about.

Since the start of the stay-at-home orders, i have put 0 miles on my Tesla. almost everything gets delivered, my wife took her car to the grocery store just a couple times which is only a mile away. I work from home, so my commute is just down the stairs.
I miss driving!
Who else is in the Zero (or nearly zero) mile cornonavirus stay-at-home club?
That is funny indeed. I've seen that too and wondered. lolI just want to understand why people are walking their dogs & driving convertibles with masks on.
LOLOLOL.I’m not sure you read the initial post...
So are you referring to as "probably" the reason? My cars sit a lot during the last 4 years of driving just occasionally. Those theoretical flat spots rotate out after just a couple miles. Wonder what I'm not understanding that I haven't seen.Probably not a good idea to leave the car stationary for too long, drive it a little every once a while to prevent flat spots on the tires.
Just because traffic is light, that is not an excuse to break the law. I’ve seen plenty of CHP on duty in the Bay Area. Going 90+ is going to cost you hundreds of dollars and 153 is an automatic loss of license.On the occasion that I am out driving, I noticed the freeways are definitely faster. I was cruising at 90mph and a Camaro flew by me like I was in reverse. Also a buddy of mine took his P3D up to 153mph. It can actually get kinda scary out there.
Me too... particularly being couped-up like this... really thought thread was about something harkening back to younger days... Nobody testing how much the M3's windows steam up?Based on the common usage of the phrase “mile high club”, I expected the topic of this thread to be something else. .
Ok, that is unlikely, but just carry a mask. I leave one in the car. Considering all the interactions at stores still happening (with PPE), this is not a big deal.The concern is if you break down or have a wreck, then you'll have unplanned social interaction.
I alternate between my Model X and my wife's Volt and try to take each out at least once a week, needed or not but I mange to always find some reason. I did do one 250 mile round trip a couple weeks ago in the X to pickup some PPE and it felt great.
It's funny how much we take for granted, just driving, being with other people (even ones you might not like at work ).
Not sure how long everyone is willing to sit in this holding pattern. I think after 4 more weeks things will start to really break down.
Correction: the Model 3 is a sedan, not a coupe.Me too... particularly being couped-up like this
What?! Get out and drive it!I got a tesla for my pre-birthday present right before the lockdown. Never got to use it
