Are you planning to carry a floor jack with your spare? If so, a floor jack might not work very well on rough roads either so maybe think twice about carrying a spare?
For me, the same rationale holds true about not having a spare in my Air. If I get a flat, I’m already going to be late to my...
These hypermiling threads will start fading away in time ... after all, I don't really see any for the ICE versions of BMW, Porsche or MBZ. ;)
If anything, we should be paying more attention to range when the battery is charged to 100%.

The resulting mi/kWh for both trips were...
Sorry ... I didn't realize there were questions posted here. Here is a spreadsheet I created to help determine specs ...
I would actually caution against using my configuration (in blue above) because I think the fitment could have been a little better ... there was still some minor...
Lucid will have access to Tesla supercharger network later this year so you won’t miss it for very long.
I also agree with you about enjoying a car that I can drive.
I’m guessing they want to address this scenario somehow even though highly unlikely … get free fast charging at EA then bring the power back home or someplace else?
There should be no problem going with aftermarket wheels ... especially If you are duplicating the factory wheel and tire sizes. However if you are deviating from the factory configuration, the key things to consider are correct widths and offsets.
For custom configurations, you can always...
