I certainly wish you good fortune in this endeavor.

The Tesla won't recharge in 13 minutes, however. It's certainly the best EV to do such a trip, but even superchargers are slow. Please come back and post a trip report as it's usually the eventful trips that people share rather than the mundane.

Since I've never had much vacation, my time has always been very valuable, so I doubt many people would drive at the pace I do. I generally go 500 miles between refueling, with perhaps 2 bathroom stops lasting about 2 minutes.

Stopping to eat for me is where I spend the 5 minutes it takes to fill my gas tank. Visit the bathroom, grab a sandwich, and take off. I'm good for about 1,200 miles in a single push.
