They are everything that's wrong with YouTube, social media, the internet and world in general.

Let's get this thread back on track…
Time for an update on my car now that I've had it for over 4 years… I now have just over 74.5k miles on my Model S -- an average of ~1500 per month. That includes about 17k miles during road trips, so my normal commuting mileage is ~1150 per month with the rest being road trips. Superchargers make the road trips possible -- and we've now Supercharged 148 times at 100 individual Superchargers. I also bought the CHAdeMO adapter last year for a road trip that included a couple segments that were not Supercharger enabled at the time. CHAdeMO is the Japanese standard for DC fast charging and the current infrastructure is mostly capped at 50kW (compared to 135kW at Superchargers) -- so CHAdeMO charges are slower than Superchargers, but much faster than "Level 2" charging (240V 30 to 50 amp outlets). Here's the road trips we've taken in the Tesla from Phoenix: - Grand Canyon (included an overnight charge at the RV campground in the park…) - Tucson (2 trips -- the first was before Supercharging was avail, and we charged overnight at a hotel with a 240V outlet) - San Diego / Legoland - Disneyland / LA (2 trips, with a 3rd stop on another road trip) - 2014 AZ-BC trip -- Overnight stops included: Disneyland, Monterey (drove via 101 & 1 through Big Sur), San Francisco, Grants Pass OR, Saltspring BC (my in-laws), Seattle, Cannon Beach OR, San Jose CA, and Las Vegas. This was mostly Supercharger enabled, but we did have to bridge a gap in Palm Springs by charging for ~4 hours at a Tesla service center, and we relied on public chargers at Disneyland, in BC and in Cannon Beach) - Page AZ and Monument Valley. Had to charge at RV parks in both towns (Page now has a Supercharger…) - 2016 AZ to BC Trip. Overnight stops included Las Vegas, Groveland CA (just west of Yosemite -- we drove from Vegas through Death Valley and Yosemite), Eureka CA, Yachats OR, Cannon Beach OR, Saltspring BC, Summerland BC (in BC wine country), Spokane, West Yellowstone, Tremonton UT, and Moab UT. There were 4 legs that we had to supplement superchargers with either CHAdeMO, public chargers or RV parks: along the 101 in NorCal to northern Oregon (2 CHAdeMO, 2 public chargers at hotels), Central BC to Spokane (1 CHAdeMO and 4 public chargers at hotels and wineries), through Jackson WY (a hotel with a public charger), and from southern UT to Flagstaff (we charged at the RV park in Monument Valley and a hotel outside Tuba City with a public charger instead of taking the longer Supercharger route through New Mexico and back to AZ -- fewer miles and less time, even with ~4 hours of charging)… - Relocation trip to OH -- Overnight stops in Winslow, Santa Fe, Oklahoma City, and St. Louis. This was 100% Supercharger enabled We also just completed our first road trip from Cincinnati: - Ottawa ON for Canada Day: Drove up via Columbus-Erie-Buffalo-Syracuse-Watertown NY and back via Kingston ON-Toronto-Detroit-Toledo-Dayton… Mostly Supercharger, with CHAdeMO charging while in Ottawa… Attached is a map of the drives since May of 2016 -- I switched to a hosted data logger called TeslaFi. Previously I had been using data logger on my computer called VisibleTesla, but its no longer being developed and has issues (like not able to export data for some reason…)
