Richfield, Utah charging just on the other side of the flames

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

That's all a 2012 signature model s car 589 and that's got to be the current record to beat this year for supercharging

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@TeslaCharging Yes I know I was there yesterday

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

Florence, Oregon Tesla Supercharger has some debris that needs to be blown up

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

Where am I charging and how is there? No one else here?

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

Man versus machine. I challenge a cyber cab to go to every supercharger in the continental us

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

How many wheels can you fit in a
2012 antique Tesla model s? At least five plus the four on there because I got one in the frunk too!

The Pan-American Highway is the world’s longest highway, almost spanning the full length of North and South America. Before today, no one had yet driven from the tippy top of North America (Tuktoyaktuk) into the Darien Gap to the southern tip in South America (Ushuaia) in an electric vehicle solo - unsupported. My Model X, Beluga, was converted into the ultimate stealth overlanding rig, with a full kitchen, running water, Starlink and 300 watts of solar panels on the hood, which allowed us to roam across some of the best most remote places on Earth with confidence.

The real challenges here…border crossings, cartels, and corrupt cops, yet I embraced it all. Charging on the other hand, was quite a puzzle sometimes, being a foreigner and having very little information to go on. I discovered how far along the electric movement is and where the short comings lie…and I can say with confidence that Tesla Supercharging is the best and most reliable infrastructure out there…

I wanted to showcase that anyone with a dream can make it happen, without needing all the answers. Thank you to all the kind strangers that helped along the way, and the countless dogs that adopted us and kept guard at night!

The irony..Ushuaia currently doesn’t have any power…so this message is coming from Space, Powered by my Custom Solar Panels!

Independence Missouri...going to learn more about this town and anything 29 mi away from it for the next few days

[Now You Know @NYKChannel]

🚨 BREAKING: Tesla Files for Restroom Addition at Supercharger Location!
Equipment inspection systems, chargers, and cleaning robots are also mentioned.
This could be a sign of expansion or upgrades for the charging network.

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@TeslaCharging it was a great run for car number 589 but the high voltage battery looks to have gone kaput. You wouldn't want to help me out with a free battery to continue this journey, would you?

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@NYKChannel Yes they are listening to me about the opticlean" robots

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@vegascarmen_ Join https://t.co/GkCwvou0ql if you are doing this extended road trip in Tesla also go to the pie safe in deary, idaho

[Don Burke @doyendon]

Wow. FSD and I were staring straight into the sun near Pagosa Springs, CO. FSD started to slow down. I initially started to override it, but remembered that FSD is usually right so I let it slow. Boy was it right. I would've hit this deer. @aelluswamy @Tesla_AI

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@TeslaCharging Yes it's nice https://t.co/sjJGBP9RPZ

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

Pretty sure @grok speaks their language and just told them about congestion fees

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

What do you think of Myrtle Beach South Carolina?

[Ken Braverman @Sprapps]

@Chris_Mayer @TeslaCharging Those look like double-sided pull-through chargers so I think they're just being used incorrectly and the cords are pretty long so I'm not sure if there's really a problem there
