Yeah, that was my plan too! Fly down, road trip back, jump on the old RTE. 66, swing thru Winslow, AZ and get a pix next to the flat bed Ford, add to my SSR photo there.
Need to have 1 of the drone guys run up to the rail yard and see what's shipping by rail. That's where most of these transports are going, 30 miles up the road to rail shipping. I wonder how many trips a day they make.
Towing on flat your premise is correct but in 40+ years of towing, driving RV's mountain driving and hauling weight uphill is a real energy sapper. No such thing as a tailwind to help you get up a grade. that holds true no matter what you're using to tow, gas, diesel, or electri.
Overall I'm in agreement with almost all your points. My biggest fear is the parking and clueless where the H... the front corners are, mixed in with rear steering is causing me some angst I'm sure I'll get over, in time. I agree the rear view mirror is a waste, having driven for years with a...
Interesting thing happened the last 2 times I came through Hawthorne Nevada,
interesting thing happened the last 2 times coming through Hawthorne Nevada, 8 v2 chargers but old pull in style (which would be great for pulling a trailer ). Model 3’s with Ca. Plates had backed in to charge...
Awesome roadtrip, I was planning on something similar as well but time constraints are changing that, envy your opportunity. Teslfi is a great tool for capturing all your data, My CT is averaging right around 440 wh/mi round trip from Las Vegas-Reno.
Interesting photo, my AWD has the same issue, my wife said while we're taking delivery she looked at the other 3 trucks being delivered and they all had this issue. I also agree with all your bullet points, loving our new truck. One thing, with our legacy 2013 MS85 we are seeing an amazing...
Same BS I went thru prep was a joke I’m sure mine was a quarterly issue as well. My thought was if you didn’t pick it up they couldn’t sell your vin to someone else, all the paperwork would have to be redone. Glad you got yours and was happy. As disappointing as my experience was with Tesla...
Mine delivered 3/27 with 2024.2.200 BTW how did you get the trips "card" on your controls page? I spent 1/2 my roadtrip trying to figure out how I could see that. w/o any luck. Also kind of disappointed on the energy display compared to our legacy MS85, always watched that while roadtripping.
What is it is most prominent, in Ben's Liquor someone comes in and shouts where's the Cyber guy? Then follows up with Nice Truck. Amazed at the number of people who ASK if they can take a picture.
Correct that was est for home charging., SC were .39-.41 per KWH overall was less than $80 still much cheaper than my High Country 3500hd Duramax usually runs $110-120 for this trip.
Very happy with our first toadtrip 12 hours after delivery. basically uphill all the way, first time copilot drove the truck and only ran over 1 curb but learned really fast about the crazy steering. Also 1st time I ever saw here go over 90 passing string of trucks. 2 lane most of the way...
So picked mine up yesterday here in Las Vegas. went from 6 hour delay 1/2 hour before scheduled appt. when I got the phone call as I was leaving the house, to a oops need a part so reschedule to a later date, 2 hours later new date of 4/13 posted on my app, no other communication, to a text at...
Not true about no touchy / feely Here at the Nevada W. Sahara service center they let me play with it all I wanted, must have been because I was giving them 15K for a reman battery and waiting for the checkin.
