CNN recreated the NYT Tesla drive (albeit in warmer temps) and arrived in Boston without issue.

Not yet, but I've only had it for about two weeks.  I'm not overly worried because my truck has an inverter that is powerful enough to charge the bike.

I just happened to hear a report on NPR yesterday about the Times Tesla 6 test drive article. They covered both sides pretty well.

Never been stranded with my '12 DS, but was riding on "0" for a couple of miles. It was my first week driving, and I didn't plug in overnight. I had forgotten I needed to drive an extra 10 miles in the morning before work, and I was quite glad to make it to a plug on it's own power. Pushing it onto the driveway would have caused endless ribbing by my co-workers, so I'm quite grateful it lasted. Since then I've had ZERO problems, because I plug in every night and I never check the gauge unless I'm driving somewhere new (which is basically never).

I also recently got a Tesla Model S, and seriously, road trips are the only time I will ever check the range. I have had way more range anxiety about my gas cars because I have to go out of my way to fill up and it wastes at least 5 minutes of my time, instead of taking 4 extra seconds plugging in at home. FREEDOM!
