The once a year journey...
Discussion
Curious as just came back from Holiday, drove from Orkney to Dorset (ok ferry was involved briefly) in one day, left North of Scotland 8AM, got home 11:30PM. Its one of those once a year journeys that historically have been the ballpark of a Diesel (we stopped once for fuel, 3x for bladders and food)
I realise this is entirely doable in an EV or Hybrid (possible a few more stops even in a Tesla) but has anyone actually done such a trip?
Non-stop (other than fueling) and fully loaded to the roof with heavy sports kit and 3x Company director build blokes on board. I realise some people may have "toured" but has anyone burnt through 800miles of electrickery in a single journey?

Can't say I've done it, but with adults only I'd give it a go... With kids, no way!
That would be insane- its bad enough with 3 tired adults!(We went diving in Orkney, drove up Friday night after work, arrived in time for 6:30 ferry from Scrabter, drove back all day Saturday a week later)
Has anyone done a long high speed run in a ModelS at its Max weight allowance, I suspect the range is decreased noticeable when its dragging its arse up the motorway like a dog with a cling-on :-)
