I was in Conserve the entire trip except for a few instances where I need to pass a slow semi on a two lane road. I switched to All purpose for these instances. I find the Conserve mode too slow to react when I needed quicker acceleration.Thank you for the great write-up!
I may have missed it, but what drive mode/height setting were you using. I haven't had the opportunity to drive any really long trips, but I did drive from Hillsboro, OR to Lincoln City, OR in SPORT mode and the Lowest setting when picking up my R1T from the Xpel PPF shop. I was floored by how much SPORT mode ate up the available range number. It was a poor man's test and assured me I would never, ever use SPORT mode on any trip where distance between chargers mattered. That's probably a given, but I seem to be a slow learner some days.
