He averaged ~59 mph, which is probably better than I would have, given that I’m a slow driver.
I would have had to refill 3-4 times but it wouldn’t have taken 24 minutes even with a visit to rest room. Of course he could have hit the john and eaten a snack while waiting to charge, which I can’t do when filling the tank.
Depending on the location, my gas would have cost about the same as his electricity.
Overall, his trip was easily comparable to same thing in my poor ol’ Hyundai.

Your poor ol' highly efficient Hyundai. Matching that efficiency with a 500HP car is not easy.

It won't win me friends on FR, but I was impressed with the Tesla's performance. Like you, I thought it took much longer to charge.
