Oct 7, 2024 - electrek Michelle Lewis: Here's what to know if you drive an EV and live in Hurricane Milton's path. If you drive an EV and live on Florida's Gulf Coast, you have two choices before the powerful Hurricane Milton arrives - here's what to know: If you drive an EV and decide to stay on the Gulf Coast: Don't park your EV anywhere where there will be standing water. This should be common sense, but there were a lot of cars in water during Hurricane Helene. This equally applies to gas cars too. Cars don't like water, and batteries particularly don't like saltwater. If you're not already in a non-flood zone with... Read More>>

Feb 3, 2024 - Teslas to Trains, LA Travel and Adventure Show: Report & Photos by Carl Morrison. The show was held on Saturday and Sunday at the Los Angeles Convention Center; Traffic is relatively light to drive my 2020 Tesla 3 about 45 minutes there for the day. One unexpected cost was $25 for parking. I like to look for tourist trains to mention to my TrainWeb.com/carl readers and TeslaTouring.com/carl readers as a destination to which they could drive their Teslas or other EVs. A highlight for me is also hearing Travel Writer, Pauline Frommer, "Life-Enhancing Vacations that won't break the bank"... Read More>>

Sep 24, 2023 - Tesla 1,000-mile round trip to ride the Virginia and Truckee Railway: Photos & Text by Carl Morrison. Headquartered in Virginia City, Nevada, the Virginia and Truckee (V&T) Railroad is one of the most famous short lines in the history of the United States, so much so that it uses the service mark 'The Queen of Short Lines'. The railroad operated until 1950 and then was dormant for more than two decades. But in 1972, private owners began the process to reopen V&T as a heritage railroad; and in 1976, trains would resume operating. Shortly thereafter, they acquired a mainstay for the line, Virginia and Truckee #29. The Virginia and Truckee Railroad is a privately owned heritage railroad, headquartered in Virginia City, Nevada. Its private and publicly owned route is 14 miles (23 km) long. When first constructed in the 19th century, it was a commercial freight railroad (reporting mark VT) which was originally built to serve the Comstock Lode mining communities of northwestern Nevada. At its... Read More>>

It is held on Saturday and Sunday at the Los Angeles Convention Center; Traffic is relatively light to drive my 2020 Tesla 3 there for the day.

January 9, 2022 - How Will You Charge Your Tesla?. The least expensive way is to charge at home. The quickest solution is to use your dryer plug, and split it with the SplitVolt (1). This allows you to use your dryer in one of the two plugs on the Split Volt and charge your EV in the other. The SplitVolt has the circuitry to make sure you are not using the dryer at the same time. If you are not using the dryer plug for a dryer, use the dryer outlet on the SplitVolt for a second Tesla. The SplitVolt gives you a readout of how many kilowatts you are using and if you know when you are drying and... Read More>>

Wed Jan 2, 2019 - Temecula Wine Tasting in a Tesla Model X - Report & Photos by Steve Grande It is really a good idea to have a Designated Driver if you plan to spend the day tasting wines at 3, 4 or 5 wineries and then drive home. Since all of us wanted to do the wine tastings, that would be a problem. I thought of staying the night in Temecula but that could be an expensive hotel bill with 5 of us going.
