Could you send us all a picture of the energy graph. Not the trips, but the energy graph. Sounds not good, but there is always an explanation.My range is down to barely 150 miles out of 318. Tesla refuses to acknowledge pack is degrading. Its down to 60% efficiency now. Don't give a lecture on driving style. I have 230k on my S, it's been in over 30 states. The pack is going bad. I going on 5k trip this week. It should kill it.
Assuming what you say is true, then they need to replace the pack - they have no argument against it.My range is down to barely 150 miles out of 318. Tesla refuses to acknowledge pack is degrading.

My battery has the exact same range as when new 12 months and 24,800 miles. Grateful!Think there may be something wrong with Tessie, every other Tesla I have owned has shown some battery degradation over 10k miles or so. CT still shows 100% battery health
If that is true, then you can get a replacement if the range is in fact below 70%, calling BS, unless can you can screenshot your service requests?My range is down to barely 150 miles out of 318. Tesla refuses to acknowledge pack is degrading....
They have a 2013 & 2017 S ... so it is not their first rodeo.My battery has the exact same range as when new 12 months and 24,800 miles. Grateful!

Yeah I noticed he stated that as well. And he has posted around here, wonder if he was talking about "while towing a boat" as he recently posted --They have a 2013 & 2017 S ... so it is not their first rodeo.
Still, it is hard to imagine what the Tesla service centers could be thinking or saying if the range is really that low. I'd run the battery test in the service menu.

I towed 7500 Florida to north Iowa and back, 3500 miles. Got a little over 150 mile range out of 300 charge. 70 mph with AC on. It cost 384 going up 375 coming back. My F350 would have cost twice.

It really tows the weight up hill great in mountains. Impressed.
Here's my lifetime charging data. Quite literally 50% Superchargers, 50% Level 2.

My battery is showing all the signs of lasting for decades too. Between 0% and 0.5% degradation after more than a year of being parked out in the summer sun and winter snow and cold rains 7 days/week. I don't give my Tesla credentials to 3rd party apps, but at 50% charge it consistently reports 158-159 miles. That's 316-318 miles of the original 318 miles (with the All-Terrain tires).Got back from a 5,900mi road trip last night and took a peak at my battery health this morning.
My FS Cybertruck (VIN 16,795) has nearly 29,000 miles on the odometer after almost a year of ownership, and Tessie (the data app) is still tracking my high voltage pack at 100% original capacity.123kWh.
The truck's nav shows 313mi of the factory 318mi EPA-rated range at 100% charge. Tessie agrees with 313mi at 100%. Thats somewhere between 0.0-1.5% degradation after almost a year. Wow!
The dip in the graph is from my winter tires. Apparently that messes with the calculations, but I'm using the OEM All-Terrains now.
Maybe the 4680 is better than expected, or perhaps this is an outlier?

Great points!!! the desire for 500 miles of range is a bit crazy for most people. Driving 80mph while towing a boat will is not the EPA estimate.The conversation on range gets distorted by the loudest voices online, most of who seem to need to drive 1000 mile days on a regular basis and have to drive 75-80 mph while towing huge trailers across the continent. TThese people focus on what THEY need and tend to forget that most people NEVER need to do that. I base that on all the comments here that Cybertruck sales can never be strong unless they increase the range to a whopping 500 miles. But that ignores the data that shows most 1/2-ton pickups never tow anything, let alone a big trailer for a thousand miles.
If massive range were so important to the bulk of the pickup market, then why does the Cybertruck outsell trucks like the Silverado that have a 100 mile range advantage? Last year the Cybertruck outsold the Silverado by a 3 to 1 margin. And why did so many Silverado buyers not buy the model with the most range?
Yes we get proper winter here in Michigan, but I do not garage my truck. It is outside 24/7, all year round, plugged into a Level 2 charger.I’m assuming it’s cold where u are, Do u garage your truck?
