STEP 1:
You can use Tesla website to plan your trip, Select the car that you are planning to take on a drive Advantages with Tesla is super charging network Check out the website for fun : https://www.tesla.com/trips SF to LA has close to 10+ Tesla super chargers(Distance : 600+ kilometers)
STEP 2:
Calculate total charging time required, you can check Tesla website to understand your trip plan Total charging time required on a 616 kilometers trip is 55 minutes Details given above are in ideal conditions: 90% charge before you start, follow speed limits, no opposite wind, no cold weather(below 0C), no snow storm etc In real world, range varies, this is similar to our ARAI mileage Tesla calculates/displays range based on EPA(ARAI), add 15~20% range error All the Tesla Chargers are located close to some of the best food courts/restrooms Total saving for the trip when compared with gas cars is 52$

Received form 35 and NOC from SBI on 06 Feb 2021. I was happy that loan closed but next challenge was how to contact RTO of hypothecation removal.
Searched on internet and there was mixed response.
Contacted few agents, they quoted me charges ranging from 1200 to 2500 based on how urgent we need it.
But decided to give a try by myself. Searched on net and found below link,
https://www.transport.telangana.gov.in/html/registration-hptermination.html
Once you will click it, it will redirect to other link shown as below
https://tgtransport.net/tgcfstonline/Registration/RegistrationOnline.aspx?Trans=HAT
click on Hypothecation/ Hire Purchase/ Lease Termination
If you have original RC then click on YES. Then below window will be open
Once you will type above details, in next window you will get your full details. I was not sure whose number to be typed at financer mobile number i typed mine alternate number and it worked 😆. Once click you will be directed to slot booking window (image only for ref)
Click on available slot. Once that is done you will be asked to pay charges. (image just for ref) fees is around 635. Take print out of it (important)
Once all done take below document to respective RTA. Below documents required
1. Original RC
2. Printout of slot booking form
3. Form 35, 2 nos (original)
4. NOC from bank (original)
5. Valid insurance (Xerox)
6. Aadhar (Xerox)
7. One small polythene pouch to keep original RC in it. At RTA they are charging Rs 5. And for printout it is Rs 10
also keep below doc in case they want (not asked to me)
1. PUC Xerox
2. PAN card Xerox
3. Residence proof
In my case it was RTA Rangareddy. Mine slot booking was on 12 Feb 2021 01:40 to 01:50
Reached there around 12. Agents started chasing me. But i decided not to pay attention. Went to window No 4. Waited for 10 min.
Officer took my documents checked for 30 seconds and issued me slip. Asked me to go to window 6 for photo.
Went to window 6 waited for 10 min. officer took my slip, done some typing on screen took my photo and signature. And told me that RC will be received via post.
Everything done in 30 min of time, no agent.
Mine application is approved on same day. Now waiting for RC😏

Possible travel routes which I could figure out were :
1) Goa - Mumbai - Udaipur - Agra
2) Goa - Pune - Vadodra - jaipur - Agra
if anyone has travelled recently - please share your experience and advice.

Hyderabad to Gottamgutta, A short weekend getaway..
tejub posted a topic in Road Trips,
Distance: 120 kms. Road condition: Excellent (upto Zaheerabad) You divert from the highway towards Chincholi forest reserve near the Mahindra factory exit. The road is a single lane road and through the farms.
We started from Miyapur around 7 AM in 3 cars. Packed all the food and water.
Note: Be sure to carry your shoes as there would be a short trek to reach the banks of the lake.
I will let the pictures do the talking. The road towards the Chincholi forest after getting down the NH 65
The weather was good as the sun shone gently on us that morning
The entry gate of the Chincholi forest was very welcome
Though it was a mud track beyond the gate, the drive was smooth and fun.
The track will is pretty narrow to just fit in 1 car at a time
Our first pit stop was a small temple enroute amidst the Chincholi forest

Kshitiz posted a topic in Road Trips,
Hi all,
I wanted to create the list of states re-imposing e-pass requirements to travel, including by road.
Here's what I found. Please add to the list and also once it is lifted, please update the thread.
I hope it will be helpful
Tamil Nadu
Dated 9-Mar-2021
All passengers coming by road and by flight to Tamil Nadu need an e-pass, the state government has decided, in a slew of new rules for domestic and international passengers coming to the state. All passengers from states, except Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Puducherry, need an e-pass to enter the state.
