32,599 miles on my AWD and itās been phenomenal. Ski trips, desert trips, towing our camper, mtb trips, tons of deep winter snow driving, and some big road trips to east coast, CA, all around the Rocky Mtn west. Only issues have been vibrating driver mirror and both frunk and trunk buttons died...
love your adventurous spirit! The Supercharger map indicates youād have a much easier drive if you start in southern Texas instead of CA/AZ/NM:
And ideally you would want to target the V3s for faster and more reliable charging:
Thanks for the insight. Sounds like you enjoyed yourself.
OP isnāt asking about transporting the truck (eg towing company), OP is asking if they can recoup some level of charge I the battery by being towed. @Cybertruck 1974 said heās done it successfully, and many non-CT Tesla owners have done this over the years in emergencies.
Example would be...
I can confirm this: I got more visceral disgust and hate from inflexible brains in early/mid-2024 than I do now in the politically-charged period anti-Elon period. And the kids still love it.
Oh and RV Parks are the shadow EV charging network. If thereās an RV Park at your destination lake, reserve a 50A slot for truck/trailer for the night, and bring your NEMA 14-50 adapter, plugin for the day and youāre golden. Many lakeside RV parks have a boat launch so youād be combining your...
You should be within range in mild weather at that speed. Do you have any elevation on the drive? Is this a quick turnaround or a multi-day excursion?
Drag is the biggest issue towing with CT , and energy consumption to drag is exponentially increased with speed. Boats/trailers are not...
Iād be willing to provide the service, although the NEMA 14-50 in the CT is still too slow.
Really need Tesla or Rivian to enable DC-DC V2V, would make it much faster to provide the service. Rivian has teased 25kW V2H, so thatās a possibility, and CT has the extra battery connector that could...
Have run our gas twice, both times with broken gauges where I had to reset the odometer with each fillup and do the math. First time was an old truck where I was too broke to fill it so wasnāt the usual math distance, second time was my old Mazda with A gauge that wouldnāt go below 1/4 tank, and...
Ignore the FUD, itās an amazing truck. But you do need to be supremely self-confident in the decision, so your hater-encounters donāt bring you down.
Go test drive one and then decide whether itās good enough to own & drive, for you and only you. Canāt let the idiocracy ruin an engineering...
Yeah mine does not maintain its own lane on left or right cornersā¦.it will drift inside the lane over to the lane, make a feeble effort to hug the line, and then drift over the line, at which point it will give up and drift into the adjacent lane with zero turn signal. And then it will do the...
Iām getting way more explicit goodwill and questions than hate these days.
I had a woman in a Subaru who looked like my Mom flip me and my son offā¦he said āthat looked like Nanaā.
My favorite is still the very young kidsā¦they get so excited and theyāve not yet been polluted by their parents...
Same here, have tried recalibrating after every new update, scheduled for cameras cleaning with next service but as other posters here have mentioned my truck āknowsā itās riding the yellow line and crossing over on long sweepers, because the ui shows the truck on/over the line. Iāve reported...
If youāre near/in Utah I would consider taking the Basecamp off your hands and free you up for the Aeroblade. My issue, ironically re: Marsā dev program, is I want it mounted on a full-size enclosed cap, a la CybertruckCoās design

Had my CT for a year and 30k miles, still wish the left & right turn signals had been located on the left/right buttons modules, respectively, of the steering wheel.
I understand thereās an anachronism of mimicking the stalk directions, and likely a desire to make turn signaling one-handed for...
Itās likely the truck is using the motor(s) inefficiently on purpose to warm the cabin or the battery. Whenever my early CT AWD is preconditioning or heating it sounds like that a gear moan or whine, then goes away if I stop navigating to the Supercharger or turn off the high defrost.
Triple-jeopardy for that perp: liable for property damages, civil damages for libel (accusing CT owner of being a Nazi), and/or the greatest irony would be if the OP is Jewish, the perp could be brought up on hate crime charges�
