I wonder how long a 3,000 mile road trip in a Tesla would take?

Like hcfx13 kinda implied, they're really just something you look at. Muscle cars are utterly useless! Id rather have a drivers car (911 of any era) than any muscle car ever made.

Tesla has supercharging stations all over the country that can give you a half charge in 15 minutes.

I'll take a 1969 Boss 429 any day over a same era Porsche 911. The 911 might be something to look at if you could peel your eyes from the stang.

It's all preference. I just like cars that drive and look good Vs just look at.

Now that I am envious of. I would give my eye teeth for a stock 69 or 70. The only muscle car I've really longed for.
Sadly 25 years ago I found a stock 69 boss 302, and thought $16,000 was too much debt right out of high school.

16 grand was alot of money 25 years ago especially right out of school, But to have that car now...what a good retirement plan that would have been.
