In front of Lakeside (my dorm), there would always be two Model 3s. One being mine (red), and another being a mystery. Finally met the mystery guy and found out he loves long drives too.
Took out both of them into the Indiana countryside for some nice pictures. This was our favorite shot.
Driving thru rural Indiana with two Teslas got us a lot of looks. We had to explain to some people that these cars were Made in America, which made them proud!
Found a set of 19 inch wheels that were brand new nearby. What a difference in the look.
Maybe I should lower the car to fill the wheel well gap?
Thank you to the generous Rose donors who gave us tickets to the Indy 500. We had a great time watching it.
We also enjoyed the Hyderabad House before the race near College Park.
It started raining toward the end of the race and it was easier to leave before the whole crowd left.
Went to Bloomington to checkout Hoosier Nation (IU Bloomington) and get Clifford’s windows tinted.
Thomas and I were hungry and thought Olive Garden was a safe option to get.
Olive Garden. Yes that Olive Garden.
In a massive college town, there had to be something else, but of course we chose Olive Garden.
Their BYOP (build-your-own-pasta) honestly is a safe option for vegeterians like some people I know.
Cavatappi with Three Cheese Marinara Sauce, and Veggies Please!
I am glad I have Olive Garden. Easy option to get when you want something better than Taco Bell but not wallet emptying expensive. Great vegeterian option I will always be ready to get.
Do not forget about the desert. Chocolate Mousse Cake is worth it.
I thought it was a great idea to drive back during the night, right after a long day of finals.
In a Snow Storm… With an Electric car… With All Season Tires facepalm
Terre Haute to Chicago literally has no Superchargers in between. You better hope you charged enough in Terre Haute and can make it at Merriville, or one of the other Chicagoland chargers.
I thought it was a fantastic idea to drive through the snow storm and try to reach Merriville. Boy was I wrong..
Clifford was slipping everywhere and we had to basically go 30-40 MPH to make it home. Terre Haute to Merriville was literally snow and black ice until about 5 miles before the charger. It was like snow did not exist.
Made it to the charger with under 2%, since I turned off all heating. Range Anxiety does exist!
Not trying this again..
