“Some of the guys have been having fun with it”. If only you knew how much fun they were having with it.😳😢
46:54 “let’s be sure not to curb these beautiful Martian wheels” yeah, about that
🤣
😄
Had a good chuckle when I saw it was the one that got annihilated.
Every road trip with Kyle is like an analytical science experiment! Your total interaction with the car technically makes your road trips the best!
Long time viewer here but somehow I just like watching your road trip videos with Tesla only 😁
It looks so easy. Dreaming of some road trips in our Model Y LR when it comes this fall.
The best is the camera on the dash showing the road ahead. Really gives the closest feel of the experience
It would be nice if you showed total drive time, total charge time and total kWh used at the end of these type of videos.
I love these Out of Spec road trips. Just did my own trip in a M3LR, no AC, 364 miles on 73kWh used, 100-3%.
Average speed?
@@UnseenSpirit 57 MPH
Do you like the tablet in the center of the dash, and no gauge cluster in front of the steering wheel? I don't think i would like having to look to the right to see my speed and other info.
You get used to your speed reading on your right very quickly. Not a big deal as people make it out to be.
That "no AC" part is the one I would take out😂
Man I love Model S road trips and when Kyle is driving it's just pure perfection. Only thing that comes close are the top speed Taycan videos from Germany. Next time you're in Munich maybe there will be a small meetup?
Great to see a new Tesla road-trip Kyle!! I was starting to go through withdrawals!! LOL! Hope to see you in Napa again in the future!!
Road trip videos are my favorite 👍
Finally another roadtrip video! Awesome!
Put the CCS adapter on the charger handle before plugging it into the vehicle. This ensures the locking pin actually locks the adapter to the handle. Arc flash is the hazard here.
Hmm there shouldn't be any arcs while connection is not fully made. At first it's only communication thorough the data lines and after that come the energy. Am I wrong?
@@skorpion1298 You are correct. The hazard is that, if the adapter is not locked properly, the connecter could come loose while charging. This is the moment an arc could occur.
@@ScottWerkema Ahh true I agree with that!
Just commenting after your video today about your plans for the future -- new channels, new focus on less expensive battery electric vehicles, and so on. And I just want to add that "we still like the original Out of Spec Motoring stuff, too!" I first found Out of Spec Motoring back when you were starting your Tesla road trips, and I've been hanging around, ever since. And while plenty of these have been Kyle / Kyle and Alyssa / Kyle and Alyssa and the dogs, I've truly enjoyed other folks, like Alyssa and Liv (and Alice), Kyle and Lexie, and Jordan and Emad. So, yes, we always want our Out of Spec Motoring, but it doesn't always have to be Kyle all the time. Also, if you ever want to make "The Scenic Version" of any of these -- adding in a few extra minutes that fell on the cutting room floor, I think that would be just fine. I have always enjoyed the music and the scenery. And the food. Thanks, and keep on Motoring!
Long road trip vids are the best Kyle
I watch these videos full on without any fast forwarding. Gives me so much satisfaction. Only minor complain is, pls make more n more videos :) Thanks so much for these videos.
Thanks for the great video. Very educational!
That’s the content I’m here for!
based on my model 3 experience, your charging curve seemed to be dropping really early, might be something to do with the high outdoor temps
Really enjoyed this trip with the plaid, it’s such a beast. Road tripping with other ev’s somehow seems primitive and sketchy, but tesla just does it right. Thanks for sharing Kyle
Beautiful scenery man. I don't know how you do all that filming while driving. It's a lot to manage!
I missed this year, but have my Black on Black M3P now, looking forward to seeing you there next year!!
Love the beautiful scenery
Nice job, Kyle. I’m glad you got a road trip in the Plaid before it was wrecked. I felt sick to my stomach when I watched the video of the disaster….. you certainly kept your cool better than I would have.
Especially because it was so dumb. If it was a normal accident that would be fine. But man, track mode in a plaid on a public road with 100% to the rear wheels… that’s just stupid! Glad they’re okay though.
I didn’t see that wreck. Where can I find the video? Thanks in advance
The wreck probably helped realign the panel gaps and fabric bubbles.
@@tk6729 Not a problem if you get a Made in China Tesla😉
When was it wrecked?
Tom Moloughney says plug in the CCS adapter to the CCS cable first then plug the whole thing into the Tesla. I did it that way successfully but it looks like you did it the other way and it works.
I love this Roadtrip 😀Thank You Greetings from Austria👋👋👋
One thing for sure, when you are use to charging on V3 on the east coast, and then encounter some of the earlier V2 stations, it can really drag on for what seems like forever. Nice to have the charging, for sure. Just needs to be upgraded.
Agreed. Got soo used to charging on V3’s. Then went from philly to Phoenix and my god could you tell the difference between a V3 and a V2. Not to mention when the V2 was busy.
LOVE these road trips .
Kyle! You’re one of the main reasons I bought my model 3. I just saw myself while you were stopped in Baker. Small world, sucks I didn’t notice you. 🙆🏽♂️
I was on that route backwards yesterday Vegas to Longmont. Fun drive in my p85
Great road trip jams!
Totally agree with your dislike of steering wheel!
😂 LOVED watching you blast past that weaving FedEx truck! I do everything I can to not stay beside those trucks. In traffic I’ll wait just behind it in the passing lane until the car in front of me gets a car length ahead of the truck, then I floor it.
Cracking up about the Yoke comments! HAHAHA I would probably agree with you 100%
I have one of those same adapters. Great for taking the lesser roads at this time. Or it helps anyway.
Hi Kyle,
I have been looking for a Tesla to CCS adaptor. Where did you get the one you have? All the ones I have found don't handle as much wattage as yours.
Thanks,
Dan
From Buttonwillow, too bad you didn’t get routed directly to Santa Margarita via the 58 across the Carisa Plains. Huge solar farm out there and some fun roads. When you picked up Drew, you passed right by the apartment I lived in when I was going to Cal Poly SLO…28 years ago…it looks the same
So funny Kyle, I totally nerd out like this on charging optimization when I road trip. I usually run ABRP at home to plan my trips then run in parallel while on the road. ABRP used to be more accurate than Tesla but recently are much closer.
you mean tesla is closer to ABRP ? I havent used a supercharger in over 2 years now, but back then ABRP was just pure gold, and on the percent right with how much i was arriving :)
This music makes me want to go on the road trip!!! Very cool!
I went with my tesla model s plaid blue to Canada it was fun road trip took long to reach and made it back to New York
Hey I drove from San Diego to Denver and stopped in Beaver along the way, awesome supercharger and EA Station! I took some pictures of my car in front of the mountains while I was there.
I grew up in Tehachapi, CA. Watching you drive down 58 made me a little homesick. Then you got to Baks.
Hey. What would you choose between Tesla Plaid and Taycan Turbo S? Awesome reviews btw… Keep it up!
especially loved the music on this video
I want to travel to the US just to drive that route. So many beautiful sights!
It wasn’t a problem with the charger it was the fact you put the adapter in the car first then the cable in the adapter and that’s not how it works. You need to put the cable in the adapter first! There is a lock on the adapter that engages the cable first!
Your tesla is beautiful. I like watching your videos reviews and roads trips.
19:02 the sequence I go through is to connect the CCS adapter to the cable first, then plug it into the car.
Great job Kyle !!! What exact size are your tires and wheels .
Would love your opinion. How does this compare to the Audi etron? Debating making the switch to Tesla model s from etron
V3’s liquid cable cooling is def not enough in hot weather. In my Model 3 LR and Model Y LR, I get peak charging from
Wrap a damp cloth around the cable near the connector and that should help with speeds.
Great video as always! And the background music adds to the experience!
Does anyone know the song between 6:30 to 8:10?
It would be great if there is a playlist of all songs used in the video
It's called Fake Happy (Instrumental) by Wicker Hans.
This was a particularly interesting video as we (Donnie the Dog and I) took almost the same exact path 10 days ago from Albuquerque, NM to Davis Ca, just outside Sacramento. Do you carry a spare tire and do you have videos headed to Portland Or? WE leave for Portland in 3 weeks in out model 3 P. I run 18's on the car and, not the factory 20s BTW. Thanks for theses videos and please reply when you can. Thanks, Steve
What camera do you use for the dash cam please that is the best view
Much appreciate your charging videos as I haven’t purchased an EV yet but you’ve definitely given me confidence on handling the range issue and when I do pull the trigger it will definitely be a Tesla. Thanks much! 👍
That Beaver supercharger I just passed coming back from mudding with friends about a day ago going back to Provo Utah
How do you take into account the wind? Last time I was driving the wind made me not able to make it to the stop I wanted to go to and I had to stop 50 miles earlier
Yeah, looks so good 🔥🔥🔥
Is there a chance we can get the music you used in this video? I loved it.
Not a fan of the wheels. Please someone tell me if its a wheel that gives you a longer range? I’m old school tho. I like a fuller wheel like Tesla factory wheels or maybe a blade style. I do like that the plaid has a more custom look with different wheels. The style just looks like the average custom Honda on the street. Great video Kyle.
Your cold rag trick has been a must have for my road trips which I learned from you back in 2020 ! I skipped going to SLO this year would have been fun to meet .
Passo Row bells is good ! I bought a tesla CCS adapter from North Korea on e bay have to figure out the Electrified America Acct stuff now.Nice to see you coming down the Questa Grade its great regeneration hill . I’am a CalPoly Grad 1981
@@t.r.766 Dude, North Korea. :D Are you sure? :D
South Korea no need any more as now available in North America for about $250. Thanks for reading. Dude
How are you liking the Model S. I bough one without even test driving it. I am turning 40 already and never had a nice ok car. I wanted to go electric and though this was a good buy. Different from model y and 3. What you think?
Hey Kyle, witch Apple Watch ⌚️ accessories do you have? Look’s good. Pls add the stuff to your Amazon lists.
Great to see the oreo plaid back in working order
Now that you have the Model S Plaid roadtrip under your belt, do you prefer it or the R1T for road tripping? Enjoy your videos!
I hear ya Kyle about the yoke & the stocks. I’m seeing a lot of the yokes are peeling. That shouldn’t happen for a car that expensive. Tesla definitely needs to fix that quickly!
You must’ve been really tired to try and use the CCS adapter for J1772… though it would be smart to just provide the CCS adapter with new cars and have it work for J1772.
Good luck
amazingggggg.
I like the background soundtrack
Ordered after having too much to drink 😂 you're a dam legend
Fun to watch this. Love SLO, an area I grew up in and around (Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande, Avila, Morro Bay, Los Osos, etc…).
As a counterpoint to your Model S Plaid trip from Fort Collins CO to SLO, may I humbly offer my July 2022 road trip from Aurora CO to Lovelock NV, about 1,000 miles, in my Model 3 SR+? (My retired teacher EV, at $38,000.00, a bit less dear than your S, I’d venture to say.)
Left Aurora at 86% SOC
Glenwood Springs for 25 min
Grand Junction, 30 min
Green River UT, 20 min
Price UT, 14 min
Arrived Salt Lake City at 21% SOC (stayed overnight).
Tooele, UT for 25 min
W. Wendover NV, 34 min
Elko, NV for 25 min
Winnemucca, NV, 15 min
Arrived in Lovelock, NV, with 22% SOC.
(I drove onto home in Sacramento with a 25 min charge in Lovelock and a 15 min charge in Reno NV, arriving home with 16% SOC a total of 1,220 miles from Aurora. And all of this is just a small part of my 5,500+ miles from CA > KY and back! I so enjoyed the trip, and am looking forward to my next one.)
Average energy for the entire trip: 242 kWh/mile. Keep in mind, this is July, through many areas of hot weather. And Kentucky and St Louis (where I stayed for two nights, 7/26-7/28) had some horrendous weather during my trip.
Driving +5 to +10 over speed limit
18” wheels (removed those butt ugly aero covers)
Total cost for supercharging: $526.00.
Great video as always, Kyle!
The wheels look awesome!
24:53 love, love, love my yoke!
It was nice of you to stop in az and allowing Gjeebs to take it for a drive
I love how many people think that the Tesla plug is so good and yet they overheat so much…
Hi, how do you keep the fog lights on even after leaving the car? Mine turns off automatically when I step out or the car.
Re: energy graph: There's a number of unofficial, 3rd party tools that poll the Tesla API for vehicle information. There's a slim chance that the data is still available through the API and can be graphed with tools like Grafana.
So the new brakes you want are only the rotors? What about the calipers where the issue is?
Kyle, when do you find time to sleep, you are everywhere, :) safe driving
The ccs adapter does not work for j1772 charging the pins aren’t there
I was blown away when I heard San Luis Obispo! That's my hometown I never thought someone would make a TH-cam video about it lol
I love how you were worried about making noise, but you had no problems aiming your headlights in your neighbors house 😂
Nice HeadLights really Bright....
Love your model s plaid , it looks really cool 😎
I've read research that..... changing your steering wheel grip to 20 - 4 on the clock will save your elbows should the airbag deploy...... If your arms are higher there is a strong chance that your elbows will be badly damaged. Enjoying your shows thanks for all your long hours of work.
Hi buddy this arr the stocks wheels 19' ???
Was that trip before of after the accident ?
Hey Kyle, how many miles, on average, do you drive per year?
Oh I tasted and drank a lot of wine in Paso Robles some time ago.
We love our 21 plate Kona 64 kw, this is even more to love, can’t wait.
Man the car looks insanely good in all black with white interior on those Martian wheels.
The wheels looks like they come from discount tire or Firestone. Do they give you a longer range? I have A Model Y. I’m looking at getting aftermarket wheels to separate my Tesla from other’s. Thanks
would be great if you also included the amount you pay per kilowatt hour at each charging.
Any thoughts on ANC (Active Noise Cancellation)?
What is the name of the song around 26 minutes into the video?
Its a bold move!!! That pink drink with white interior lol
this car is 390+ miles range but why do you have problem to go 180 miles away when full at 80 percent, i mean what is that, i need more info ther.
Love your content kyle so keep it going even if i'm late in this video.
Alyssa edit this one? Great work. A pleasure to watch.
No, I did this one. Hammering them out this week to get caught up!
Keep them coming.
@@KyleConner What's the song at ~6:20? Love it but shazam is having trouble.
Was that Gjeebs pink Model Y?
You were saying Paso Robles the way most people say it in the area. You and Alyssa should stay at the Madonna Inn sometime, its a cool place.
Did you forget to take your CCS adapter at the charging station?
