I know some folks that just made a cross country trip in a Tesla model Y. They don't do huge distances every day so it took a couple of weeks but they made it just fine. They did note that the South was really bad for chargers. Something about some state legislatures or municipalities actually passing laws against public charging or something like that. It sounded pretty southern and believable though.
If I had Tesla Y money, I'd get an RV for a slow cross country road trip. Save on hotels. I'm talking about trips where you want to get to your destination, yet don't really want the added expense, hassle, and limits of flying (and probably renting a car at the other end). This mostly has to do if you have 3 or more people on the trip, if you're just one person who can avoid renting the car on the other end somehow, it doesn't apply.
They did have one but got rid of it because they didn't want the hassle. They are olds and are more about convenience at this point.
