Tesla will haul 5 adults and 2 kids with their luggage (3 adults and 3 kids in my case)
It can do cross-country spending $0 on gas
Yes you wait 30-40min while it's charging, but guess what?
By the time you get to your next charger, you'll need to either use bathroom or eat. 300mile ~ 4-5 hrs driving
Now, when you have a few kids, you're not waiting for your car to charge
Car is fully charged waiting for you to comeback from lunch, etc
Have you driven your Tesla across the country?
We never done this type of trip, so not sure
Not many people do cross-country
As soon as the baby a little older we might think of going somewhere, possibly Miami
But decision is not based on the car, but what kind of vacation is next
I did like our trip to Boston
We supercharged and even got free charging in garage we parked next to attraction.
