Seriously, though... what do Tesla drivers do when they run out of power? Is towing the only option?

A friend of mine thought the Tesla SUV was really cool, but bought a Bentley Bentayga instead because he owns a company that buys and refurbishes mining equipment and often has to drive to remote job sites.

Hahaha lol idk why im dying "Hope the guy driving by in a Prius isn't too badly butthurt that you have more "Look at me! I'm saving the planet!" status"

What happens if OP needs to drive 365 miles around San Diego?

Same thing a Bimmer Owner does.

You pull into a fueling station.

Actually if you need to drive 311, any EV charger, including those at many Whole Foods and 10 minutes would get you more than that extra 1 mile needed.

And as Tesla 3 gets HOV sticker in California, the Bimmer would still be stuck in traffic while the Tesla is on and gone.

Besides, the OPs question was " is 0-60 in 5.2 seconds good". To the of the owners who received their new Tesla yesterday, the answer is no.

You pull into a Supercharger and get 130 extra miles in 30 minutes while the Bimmer is still stuck in California Highway Traffic due to no HOV access.

"And as Tesla 3 gets HOV sticker in California, the Bimmer would still be stuck in traffic while the Tesla is on and gone."

Here in the SF Bay the HOV lanes are already getting full. Often no faster than the global warming lanes. I've been wondering what's going to happen when all the hipsters who ordered Tesla 3s take delivery. The HOV will eventually be the TSL: Tesla Slow Lane.

Thank God for my motorcycle and the ability to split lanes (oops, we are supposed to call it "lane sharing") here in Cali.

Now I have a vrsf 6 stepped intercooler and ER chargepipe. Still have stock tires and wheels but ordered ESR wheels with slicks.

Why are you running map 1? should be running map 2 with all those bolt on mods. you're missing out on 2lbs of boost you could be using? lol

Im on map 2 with similar mods.my brothers honda runs 13.0 - 13.1 in a 1/4 mile. I never took my car to the drag race but street race from a dig i will pull him 1-2 car length all the way to 120 mph then he passes me

My old Audi was at 2.9 0-60. My 335xd is measured on a calendar by comparison but still pulls nicely.

I'm looking for more mods to improve it.
