We drove the Oregon Trail...in a Tesla

Mr. Beat takes a family road trip to Oregon via the Old Oregon Trail and does his best not to get stranded since he's driving it in a Tesla Model Y. It's pretty much the ultimate Oregon Trail video.

Be sure to purchase Katrina’s book if you want to take your own Oregon Trail road trip:
