open weather. After a late breakfast, we took U.S. 191 to Moab. When approaching Moab, one sees a spectacular visage of red rocks reminiscent of Sedona except on a much grander scale. Then we took a stunning mid-afternoon drive up Utah 128, also known as the Dinosaur Diamond Prehistoric Highway, that hugs the Colorado River up a narrow red rock canyon from U.S. 191 just north of Moab. There, we stopped at Sorrel River Ranch for a late afternoon lunch on the river before reversing course back to Moab where the Tesla Supercharger was in the parking lot of our hotel, the Best Western Plus Canyonlands Inn. One side effect of a Tesla road trip: you meet the most interesting people at Superchargers. At the Las Vegas (NM) Supercharger, we chatted with two teams of the “Around the World in 80 Days” Tesla Challenge – a German and Italian team with their “frunks” (that’s front trunk in Tesla speak) full of charger adapters. The Tesla Model S is by far the best automobile-owning experience I have ever had. My wife now drives a Tesla Model X, and our 35.1 kWh solar roof keeps our carbon footprint at a minimum. Tesla’s Model 3 and GM’s Chevy Bolt will start shipping next year, and then I expect the EV revolution will kick into even higher gear. Tesla has set the stage for a revolution in motoring. Stanford University lecturer and green entrepreneur Tony Seba predicts that the internal combustion engine will be obsolete by 2030 in his paper titled “Clean Disruption of Energy and Transportation: How Silicon Valley Will Make Oil, Nuclear, Natural Gas, Coal, Electric Utilities and Conventional Cars Obsolete by 2030.”
