This video documents a road trip taken by the "Out of Spec" team from San Angelo, Texas, to Fort Collins, Colorado, in a Tesla Model 3 Performance. The journey highlights the significant improvements in charging infrastructure, particularly the addition of a new V3 Supercharger in Clayton, New Mexico, which dramatically eases a previously challenging stretch of the route. The reviewer notes the car's capability on various road surfaces, though mentions the Nokian Hakapalita R3 winter tires were not ideal for the high Texas heat, leading to increased temperatures. The trip also touches upon the importance of planning for weather conditions, especially headwinds, which significantly impacted travel times and efficiency. The Model 3 Performance is praised for its comfort and performance during the long drive, with the new charging options making the trip feasible and less stressful than before. The video also includes a brief mention of a stop at a Porsche dealer to view their heritage collection.
