    Scheduled departure for 100% charge?

    What time do you normally leave in the morning? Just set your departure time to that, and set your off-peak time to some time a little later than that. Done. "Scheduled charging" says "start at this time". "Off-peak" says "finish at the earlier of the off-peak time or departure time". In my...

    New power/regen bar is IM-POS-SIB-LE to see

    It's not bad at night but hard to see in the day. Needs to slide over several pixels...

    Model Y HW4 with OEM Tow Hitch Installed

    FWIW I have the heat sink deal on mine (2024 Austin build, hitch added after delivery) but no 12V power according to the tester.

    Model Y Tool Kit Suggestions

    Mostly tire stuff, that's about all you'll probably be able to deal with roadside anyway. Now, I still keep a basic HF socket set and some other tools on hand in the subtrunk below the spare, but that's just for doing stuff not on the car. I can't count how many times I was able to "save the...

    SMS Irregularities receiving/reading texts

    Does anyone know if this has been fixed? (Yes, I'm being lazy and asking instead of trying it myself...)

    Magic Dock

    There's also the approach from the Metter, GA supercharger (pic from streetview). Put it between the parking rows so the non-Tesla cars can park on the other side and not block a spot...

    FIXED in 2024.14.6!

    Honestly not a fan of those changes; I liked the turn signals up high where they used to be. The energy bar would be ok if it was slid over just a few pixels off the edge of the screen--it's hard to see in "day mode" (but actually ok at night). Really, I'm not a huge fan of most of the...

    FSD take rate after free trial 2%

    Like ai said, we had a loaner over a weekend and I used it over that weekend quite a bit. But it was more like a neat party trick. I didn't like the way it drove (too hesitant to go, follows too close, brakes too late) and it required more attention than just doing it myself. And was too...

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    It's a documentary in stodgy old fields like aerospace, too. We make it required viewing for our interns... The panicked "OMG our quarterly numbers are in jeopardy!" layoffs are almost inevitably the "cut XX% tomorrow!" kind. We've been through it. Somehow I survived, but the only reason I'm...

    FSD take rate after free trial 2%

    The EAP feature of changing lanes is nice, but I have a commader to reactivate it already. And autopark is a neat trick but I'm usually already in the process of parking there before it recognizes the spot. I was impressed by how much it did right when we had a loaner a few weeks ago, but...

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    Hell, most human drivers don't do that either...the ones on the highway trundle along fat, dumb, and happy, totally oblivious until someone starts edging into their lane. The ones on the on-ramp plod along at 45 until their lane runs out, and only then do they attempt to move over and suddenly...

    Thread for the most minor of suggestions

    You don't need to, but it makes "duplicate my profile except..." a lot easier. In my case the mirrors were just a bit different and seeing them wiggle was annoying me. Wiping out EE and redoing it was the easiest fix.

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    Like the song says... got bills to pay, got mouths to feed... if that happened to me I'd probably take the job just to buy time to find another job and get the house packed up and ready to sell. And then I'd walk out. But then, for me changing jobs means moving at least two hours away...

    Spare tire necessary?

    This is exactly why I got a spare. Having one has saved my butt a few times over the years, often in places or at hours that roadside couldn't help.

    Delete easy entry and turn it off everyone's profile. Then turn it on again based on your profile.
