He has a DE and lives in FL where it isn’t cold. I have driven Cupertino to San Diego on a single charge, which is 466mi; it just wasn’t fun to drive that way.

Sure technically you can achieve it but at what cost. I lose 5 miles just on the ramp

I think we visited the same farm. All I remember is rows and rows of trellised tomatoes in greenhouses.

Not if I drive the way I like to. We average just over 3.0 mi/kWh on road trips, which would have required ~124 kWh. Plus it was raining part of the way, which reduces range a bit, and I got tied up in two prolonged traffic snarls due to accidents (one on Route 27 and one on I-4) with lots of stop-and-go driving.

Also, since this shortest route was on back roads through rural farmlands and small towns well past midnight (we got home at 3:48 a.m.) with no charging options at all, it was not a place I would have wanted to run out of battery charge.

Maybe the Tesla would’ve saved you time. If I was expecting to have to charge and the only station in the middle of a busy airport was a 4 stall unit with one stall broken, I absolutely would not take my Lucid haha

Yes, it was Fridheimer. However, there was a restaurant set up in the middle of the plants . . . last week, anyway.

And here's that tomato soup @borski is remembering:

Yeah, but I would have had to spend 11 hours driving and sitting in that Tesla instead of the Air. Not worth the possible time saving in my book.
