not needed for daily commutes

only needed for long haul travel - over the 300 miles or so common range

so, interstate highways and turnpikes

Buc-ee's truckstops

My step son was here and went to Cincy for New Years to see friends.  He rented a Tesla Type X.  He really liked it, he recharged 3 times going up.  He set the speed at 85 which is the max for the autodrive function which he really liked.

I rode in it a couple times around town, my wife said she liked it.  Range is less for freeway driving versus around town.

You can drive manually over 85, he said.

Swapping the battery pack is not as simple as it sounds because they have a thermal cooling and heating system built into the pack as well as the weight and size of the pack itself does not lend itself to swapping.  I'm sure it could be done, but like others have said for the average person 300 miles of range is plenty and then with the super charges a lot of folks can charge way up in 30-45 minutes.

The recent battery packs are an important part of frame stiffness as well.

You know the savory meat versions aren't actually called kolaches, right?  They're technically a "klobasnek."

Of course, there's also no such thing as a chicken or shrimp fajita, so there you have it.
