The family and I took a road trip to Adealaide a few weeks ago in our Model Y. For anyone with range anxiety, this video may help.

If you're thinking of buying a Tesla, you can get some money off and some bonuses by using my referral link which means we both get credit with Tesla, which is nice. ☺️ You can also use the link when booking a test drive and then I get 100 credits, which is nice too. 😉
