Enjoyed watching your trip. I frequent that Electrify America at Harper's Station when visiting family in Cincinnati. Of course it's currently offline while they rebuild the whole thing. Same for that EA in Mentor you visited. I would agree that anecdotally the network has become more reliable of late. Still, I've never gotten the app to work right for me - I always get an error when swiping to start the charge. Tapping the phone works if the RFID readers are online, but that's been about 50/50 in my experience. Thanks for the video, subbed

Nice to see the faster charging times & better reliability! I've always wanted to see Falling Water, so fun to see you visit. Thanks for taking us along!

Nice! Thanks for documenting the experience

OMG when were you at the Cheektowaga!? I just bought my 2023 ID 4 2 months ago and I have been charging at the Cheektowaga station a lot! It’s always busy… I’ve been enjoying your videos for a while now, thank you for them 😊

And speed control can keep you legal and avoid tickets

Most Teslas look like potatoes on wheels. No style. And a lot of distracted driving. I love my 2023 ID-4

The '24 ID.4 has both manual and automatic battery preconditioning, a heat pump, better UI in the infotainment system, and better range 😊

I've had my Id4 pro S for one month. Today i had an error message that the electrical system was not working properly, then it simply stopped running. Couldn't put it in gear. Just dead

Did you get to choose between rwd or long range when you got there? I’m going to that location tomorrow and I was hoping to test a 2024 RWD as that’s the model I’m looking at getting.

Thanks for the info! Just bought an older ID4 & so in love with it but I must admit it was that or the Tesla 😳 keep up the good work! Your videos are so helpful 🫶🏼

Could you have used Google Maps instead for figureing out state of charge at arrival?

You donot no to operate

FSD did well, on a very easy daytime drive. How about Cincinatti or Cleveland on a Friday or Saturday night? Or in the rain? That would be interesting.

Recommend using auto max speed offset. 👍🏻

Running 70 mph is your problem. On such a short trip 70 doesn't reduce your ETA by much. But 70 dramatically reduces range.

Love your channel! Keep up the great content! You both are great communicators.

What s the APP on your phone that is telling you the battery temperature?

If that was a Tesla you'd be looking at $5000+ for the repair!

Duct tape! MVP!

Please enable auto max speed, FSD is driving with one hand tied behind its back. 👍🏻

Thanks for sharing your 1's experience.

Nice to see it doing well on your drive. So far V12 has been pretty good for me in Minnesota. Looking forward to using it more.

It would be nice to see all the lights but in a dark environment or night. 🙂🙏

Great videos! Keep up the good job! 👍🏻 So helpful and informative. Nice interior color btw.

Your car looks really good. The black with tint & white interior. Bummer bout the road debris. I hate when that happens. Glad everyone was okay. Thx for the video. I enjoyed watching.

Great driving skills. Glad everyone is safe.

Fun to watch the trip, but sorry about the damage. Hopefully it can be back in good condition soon. Glad you’re both okay, those sudden road hazards are awful.

Ugh! I have enjoyed watching your rode trip postings and glad to hear you're both OK after that mishap. I have an ID.4 Pro S (RWD) in a suburb outside of NYC and have not gone on any trips that require a charge. I have a home charger. The closet EA charger is three miles away and always busy- except after 10PM. The longest trip we have gone in the EV is 220 miles round trip to Philly and back to north NJ. No on road charging needed. Watching your video's and other EV road trippers, I still am not convinced that we're truly ready for those longer trips. I still use my ICE for longer distance trips (NJ to Michigan-600 miles). In gas costs- round trip it's about $150. I noticed that on your trip- the Electrify America (EA) stations were either down or to far off the highway to use. You had one charge of about $36 on your trip- not using EA. If your total costs for charging was about $70 (let's say)- I don't see the extra price difference worth it for inconvenience of all those stops! I love my EV and use it 90% of the time. In future video's could you kindly provide the costs of charging for the long trips. Maybe- I'm way off in pricing. Also glad to hear that the repair is about $500. Could you do a follow-up on how the repair process went. We're parts readily available? Time your vehicle was in the dealership? I'm also worry about getting a flat and happy to hear you did not experience. You both have a very calming demeanor and are informative. I hope your channel continues to grow and wish you the best.

Yikes! I’m glad that tire incident worked out and that nobody was injured. Rubber, plastic and metal, just stuff that can be repaired. Another great video. I was stationed in the Carolinas with the Marine Corps 45 years ago and love seeing the travel sights through your lens. I’ve also been trying to incorporate the VW ID4 Nav system more in my travels based on watching you use same. Stay Safe and All the Best! Art, California.

Glad you guys are okay. Recently found this channel and subscribed. I'm considering an ID4 and I'm not sure how long you have had it, but wondering how the light color steering wheel is holding up with regard to smudges etc. Also "Modern Spare" provides spare ev tires. Might be an option if you have room for it in the trunk when traveling for peace of mind. Calling someone out for a tire change vs flat bed always seems to be much faster. Thanks for the vid.

All EV are crap.

Model y juiper any day but not yet launched in hindustan south, too late though its coming now after import tax relief. while vw id 4 has showcased and ready.

Would you happen to onow the trim of the EV6 you tested? Thanks for the great review

You’ve got a nice channel. I hope you keep producing these kind of informative videos. I’m a ‘22 VW I.D.4 Pro S RWD owner living in Southern CA. I have absolutely loved the car since purchase. All the Best, Art.

Nice trip, glad to see plug & charge working so well. I hope the weather improved while you were down there!

What about build quality comparison between the two models? Which one do you prefer?

64 cents a kilowatt seems pretty expensive.

I recently took a long road trip from Baltimore, MD to The Villages, FL and plug & charged worked great each time! I didn't notice much lag in max kW charging as I planned to arrive at most stops below 20% SOC. One charging session, I hit 191 kW on the 350 kW charger. The only time I noticed slow charging was in Bushnell, FL on 1 particular day....I was maxing out at 62 kW and was groaning a bit, until I talked to the 2 guys trying to charge their Rivans.....1 topped out at 58 kW and the other could not connect....I suspect those EA stations were experiencing some issues that day.

4.9s for awd

I'm interested in the Equinox, but I really love Android Auto.

I think you got them all. Exciting times! Thx 4 the vid. I enjoyed watching

I’ve been driving my 2023 Pro AWD ID4 for almost a year and I’m completely satisfied with it. I just prefer almost everything about it. You didn’t hit insurance costs. It seems that Model yes are quite expensive to repair and therefore to insure. Also the very sportiness of the Tesla likely contributes to higher premium costs as well. If you’re considering both, I’d suggest getting quotes for both before you buy. I’ve owned an EV for 6 years now.

This is not the 2024, you are in a 2023.

It’s annoying how it goes click click click with the turn signals. Maybe they need a more relaxing sounding click

It’s a stalk too far!

Wow, that’s pretty neat.

Great video as always! One minor miss, you can dim the interior lights by holding them too. It's a cool feature most people don't know about.

Tesla looks like an old piece of soap floating away in the shower.....

How is the one pedal driving? I was told that VW didn't have full regenerative braking that could take you to a complete stop.

So it looks like VW is working on getting it's 2024 Model to be where Tesla was 5 years ago, and for more money, and crappier software. Wow, I'm impressed!
