Ripping Our High(ish) Mileage Tesla Model 3 Over 3,000 Miles Round Trip From Colorado To Oregon! 

We're in Idaho Falls and we make this run from IF to Boise all the time in our Model 3 LR. Love the videos

you should consider investigating into glass cleaners on road trips especially in Warm months!

Nokian! Cool! Finally. I know you guys are huge fans of the Hakkapeliitta tires for a long time.

@Out of Spec Mororing I’m curious, how many miles on your Model 3 and what percentage of battery degradation do you have? Or, more simply, what was your full/trip charge new and what is it now?

In Canada

Lmao I wouldn’t quite call this an “issue”

Squeegee and trash cans. I wish they were at every charger. There has become an issue of people leaving their trash at stations.

Yes, who wouldn't like sitting at the superchargers for HOURS, while gasoline cars just blow down the freeway, after a 10-minute fuel stop? Also, Tesla with big wheels and super low-profile tires make driving on rough payment a joy. NOT.

@@DerekDavis213 Supercharging is only excessive if you don't plan your trip at all, and charge up to 100% at every single supercharger stop. You should be stopping at a supercharger every two hours or so for 15-30min. At any rate the extra time charging may add, it is such a non issue during a road trip. If time is that much of a concern then buy a plane ticket.

@@frozenbacon Like *most* *people* , I get annoyed waiting in line at the grocery store or at a restaurant. I'm certainly NOT going to spend hours of time waiting for the car to charge, while the guy with the gasoline car can put 400 miles of range in his car in 8 minutes. You say to stop every 120 miles and charge for 15 minutes? That's not enough charge! Especially if the weather is cold and you have the heat on, or if you are driving UP an incline. And if you run out of battery power, the only option is an *expensive* *tow* . Gasoline cars are 100 times more convenient and reliable! Gasoline cars come with a beautiful *functional* dashboard, not some big iPad screen. Detroit to Miami Florida is 1412 miles. An EV Trip Planner shows that Tesla will need 8 hours 20 minutes of charging on that trip. And that's not including time *waiting* for an available charger. 1412 miles is about 3.5 tanks of gas, total time spent at the gas pump is *less* *than* *30* *minutes* . Tesla is a HUGE waste of time. Tesla Full Self Driving is YEARS LATE and still nowhere close to working.

Not a Tesla fan, but I love EVs, headline cars are NOT more reliable. They have thousands of moving parts that can go wrong. Unless you're glutton for punishment you shouldn't spend more than 2 hours without stopping to move around. Tesla should install some pull up bars at the charger stations.

@@bronzeage_222 Toyota Camry or Honda Accord will go 100,000 miles with just oil changes, air filter, tires and brakes. Those cars are very reliable. A 1000 mile road trip in a gasoline car only requires 2 stops for fuel. Total time at the gas station: 10 minutes. I'm driving 75 mph with the air-conditioning on the whole way. How much time does the Tesla owner have to WASTE at the Superchargers? Maybe even waiting in line for his turn. And then Tesla, with big wheels and low-profile tires and inferior *coil* *springs* is going to give a rough ride. No thanks!!

Some of the Superchargers in my area have a (for example), 7A, 7B, 7C, 7D, 7E....... and it's impossible to figure out which stall to charge at.

For men it’s easier. Superchargers are like urinals. If there are multiple available, why would you insist on standing directly next to another man?

@@nielsvandenkieboom5034 😅 exactly!

It’s probably because a lot of them are new Tesla drivers that don’t bother to learn or ahole brainless Tesla drivers. If they knew the right way to do it then they’d have done it. Happened to me before, at a small 5 staller at a gas station. The dumba*# parked right next to me instead of the space over.🙄

**THIS** When going through Idaho this is a must stop charger. During regular hours you can use the restroom at the Visitor center in the parking lot as well. They are also in the process of building some new restaurants adjacent to the chargers.

They make great all-season tires now too! I just ordered a set of the tires he drove on this trip, the Nokian One.

I go will them in their tour ..

Just use the windshield wipers and spray

@@ironqqq nah, you can damage / degrade the blades on debris. Wipe with a cloth if you can.

Lots of people have told him about the bugs but he doesn’t seem to care.

Any update?
