My brother and I were visiting our parents' house for the week - I drove our Lightning and my brother brought his Model X. On our last night in town after a day of tailgating/frunkgating at the Brewers game, we both wanted to charge up to 100% since we'd each be driving several hundred miles to...

I probably wouldn’t attempt the same trip if I didn’t have the ER, you’d be deep charging constantly and that would eat up a lot of extra time.

38qt - brand is “Bodega” - purchased off Amazon for around $320

Average freeway cruising speed was probably 79mph? I kept Blue Cruise on for most of the way but there are several stretches of 80mph limit where the flow of traffic was faster than blue cruise would allow above 80.

We found a plug-in fridge/freezer cooler that fits perfectly in the frunk and keeps the diet mountain dew icy cold throughout the drive. Definitely keeps the morale up.

My wife and I live in Richland, WA, and we had our first child last December. My daughter's pediatrician doesn't want her to fly until she's at least 1 year old. Our entire extended family lives in Wisconsin, so we planned a road trip back home to meet her relatives. We'd taken this same trip...

Lightning strikes! Arrived at my dealership this weekend. Should be able to take it home tomorrow or Tuesday pending PDI.

Just noticed my delivery window has moved up from 8/4-8/10 to 7/27-8/2.

Truck has reached the end of its rail journey to Spokane! Now waiting for it to be unloaded and trucked down to the Tri Cities - which the dealer says usually takes a few days. We’re close!

Just got my photo from Ford and confirmation that it has departed Williston, ND.

So, the phone tracker now states that my rail car has arrived in Minot ND - maybe it really did take a zig zagging scenic route and I’m just 4-7 days behind you all…

We love to see it! Hoping I’m not too far behind…

It’s a pessimistic guess-o-meter based on your driving history - so if you’ve driven it on the freeway in those first 800 miles then it’s factoring that into the estimate. You can reset it, or just get used to it being a bit conservative and keep a close eye on your mi/kwh for a sense of if it’s...

Let’s hope! Have either you or @Tyleem111 gotten any updates on your progress?

I think they gave me the wrong rail car number. It turned around at Kansas City and is currently heading back towards chicago. Frustrating, but at least I might be farther along than KC by now.
