- [Daniel] Look at that face, we've got--
- I'm Draco Malfoy.
- That's too happy of a Draco Malfoy.
(upbeat music)
Today, we're taking a road trip.
I've been wanting to do this ever since we bought a Tesla.
Right now, we are in St. George, Utah
and we're gonna drive through Las Vegas,
across the desert, into Los Angeles,
all the way over to Venice, California.
It usually takes six hours in a regular car.
Let's see how long it takes us in a Tesla
when we have to stop places.
Here's how we get there and then check it out,
it pulls up where we're at right now.
It shows all the different charging stations
all the way to California
and then this part right here it's thinking
where's the superchargers
based off of our current charge which is 242 miles.
We need to stop in Primm, Nevada
which is basically Las Vegas.
It's calculating what percentage our battery life
will be like.
We'll be 24% when we get there.
We need to charge for 25 minutes
and then we'll drive to Barstow, California
and charge for 30 minutes
and then by the time we get to Salt and Straw,
we'll be 17%.
It'll take seven hours, 23 minutes, 414 miles.
That's a long time.
It usually takes around six hours.
So with the charging time, it's gonna make it a long trip.
Ready for an all day road trip?
- Mhm.
(upbeat music)
- Stay below 65 miles per hour to reach destination.
It's super annoying because the speed limit last night
was 80 miles an hour in Utah
but it was telling me I had to go below 65 miles an hour
so semi-trucks are passing me
and I'm in the fastest car on the road
but because of the battery, I had to go super slow.
(upbeat music)
Buffalo Bill's Casino.
Home of the world's tallest roller coaster.
Not the case anymore.
Yeah, there it is.
And there's a McDonald's over there.
We made it.
Alright, charge, buddy.
Oh, let's see the green light.
- [Lincoln] 40 minutes to continue on your trip.
- [Daniel] Alright, what'd you get, buddy?
- [Lincoln] Eggs, sausage, pancakes.
- Egg McMuffin, the breakfast of champions.
So we've got 40 minutes for the car to charge,
get some food, relax for a little bit,
go to the bathroom, get on the road and go to the next stop
so I guess that part's not so bad.
Let's hit the road again.
See if we can make it to Barstow.
It's a long desert stretch.
(upbeat music)
So we've been driving down this giant hill
and the car has actually been recharging
even though we're going 80 miles an hour.
That is pretty cool, see the green line down there?
(relaxing music)
See it anywhere?
- No.
- A little trick that I learned.
See this, how it says 1B on it?
And then come over here.
This one says 1A.
These two right here are paired up
and so what happens is
if two cars pull up to 1A and B
then the one that pulled in first gets the full charge,
gets the faster charge
and the second person gets whatever's remaining.
I didn't wanna go into 2A
because this one was already in 2B.
This one, 3A, 3B.
That spot's available
and then the same thing with these ones.
It's something you don't think about
when you go to a gas station.
You take for granted the cover
and all the lights that are in the top.
You just pull in.
Doesn't matter what the weather is at a gas station.
You're usually good.
This is the first charging station
out of about six of 'em that we've seen
that actually has a cover.
It's not that bad if you plan it out.
I know it's more of a hassle than a gas station
and just pulling up and go
but I don't know, it's kinda relaxing
to force yourself to stop.
(upbeat music)
It's like it's riding sideways.
What is that?
That is trippy.
It's like the whole truck bed's off.
What?
Here we are.
We made it.
Looking sharp, Lincoln.
You like a California boy.
Yeah, that's how California boys look.
We made it, handmade ice cream.
Yeah, look at, making fresh waffle cones right there.
Was it worth the drive, Lincoln?
- Uh huh.
- [Daniel] I've never been to this beach before, have you?
- No.
(fun music)
- This is Muscle Beach.
This is my first time coming here.
I didn't even know it really existed
but we got the gym over here with people working out.
People doing CrossFit and all kinds of crazy stuff.
It's pretty cool.
Alright, if you've ever wondered why
Venice, California is called Venice,
here we were not in Italy.
It's because back in the day they thought it would be cool
to make it look like Venice
and so they have these canals, look at the boats.
Here's Venice for you.
- Wow.
- [Daniel] That's pretty interesting, I didn't know that.
- That's so cool.
- [Daniel] Beware of the black swan.
Alright, this is interesting.
Our Uber driver is named Daniel and he is driving a Lincoln.
That's perfect for obvious reasons.
Okay, we did a tour of Venice Beach.
I had never seen Venice before, that was really fun.
Now, we're gonna go back, get our car,
hopefully it's fully charged and then we are gonna go to--
- A hotel.
- Oh, hotel and then trick or treating tonight.
Dude, yeah, What's Inside, man.
- [Lalo] What's up, man?
- [Daniel] What's your name?
- Oh, it's Lalo, nice to meet you guys.
- Thanks for watching, man.
All charged, baby.
It's six p.m. here in California, we've had a full day.
We went to the hotel and just took a little rest and relaxed
and now, Harry Potter.
- I'm not Harry Potter.
- [Daniel] Who are you?
- Draco Malfoy.
- Draco Malfoy, he's not really Draco Malfoy yet
because he needs some hairspray in his hair
but as soon as he gets it on,
he's not gonna have that sweet voice anymore
of Draco Malfoy.
It's gonna be like, I'm Draco Malfoy, right?
- Draco Malfoy.
- [Daniel] Look at that face, we've got--
- I'm Draco Malfoy.
- [Daniel] That's too happy of a Draco Malfoy.
You need to be grumpy, mean, Quiffledorf
or whatever his name is.
- Quiffledorf.
- [Daniel] I don't know what it is.
- You need to read Harry Potter.
- [Daniel] Whoa, look at this place, guys.
I don't know, it's a scary one.
- What was that?
That was a satisfied customer.
- Satisfied customer.
- [Daniel] Uh oh, what do we have here?
Haunted house.
Oh, a bat.
Whoa, big spider.
- They had all king size like M&M's and things.
- [Daniel] That's the place.
This is the winning spot right here.
They know how to do it.
They even have a Porsche over here
that has a skeleton in it.
Oh, pumpkin head up there.
You're not Harry Potter anymore though, your hair.
- I know, I fixed my hair up.
- [Daniel] How many people said
they knew what your character was?
- Probably about 20 to 30 people recognized it.
- Yeah, it was great.
That was great so really fun time.
Great hospitality from our friends out here
and now we're gonna go to the hotel and get some sleep
and tomorrow is going to be epic.
Ooh, baby.
Look at that haul.
That's what California trick or treating looks like.
Full king size Kit Kats.
A bag full of Jolly Ranchers.
- [Lincoln] Boom, boom.
- [Daniel] Two full Snickers.
- Boom.
- A full on Milky Way.
Difference between trick or treating in Utah
versus California.
The houses here are so much closer together
that you just have house after house after house
and everybody's outside on these smaller streets
and so you see everybody in their costumes
and it's actually really fun, it has a great atmosphere
and the place that we were,
the part of California we were at was Manhattan Beach
and they had just nice candy and it felt very safe there.
Pretty good, nice haul.
I'm gonna help Lincoln eat some of that stuff.
- [Lincoln] You're not.
- [Daniel] I'm not?
- It's all mine.
- Come on, Draco.
Goodnight, everybody, that was a fun video.
Full day.
Time to sleep.
