He also has the fanciest Model3 that was like $100k after tax so his range is a lot more than most of the cheaper ones.

It's almost there... ALMOST... but not quite............ also I can't speak for littledragon, but when I do YVR-SFO or LAX drives........ I don't want to stop for an hour+ for lunch... I want to keep plowing through. I bring my own food or if I do stop it's for take-out not dine-in.
But how much money did he save in fuel. I would rather sit on my ass for 3 hours then have to work to pay for gas.
