I ordered my 2023 MYLR with the factory tow hitch. I expected the hitch and wiring to perform like all the other tow vehicles I have had (I was coming from a BMW X3). Nope. Tesla does not supply 12V+ power to pin 4 due to the upgraded Li-ion battery:

This means that a brake controller like the Cur...

I saw a Highland (aka Refresh) Model 3 for the first time recently, and concerning the shape of the front of the car, I think I prefer the original shape (as in the lower image).

Left a Model Y out in the rain overnight, and next day after accelerating, water came dripping into passenger seat well from under the glovebox.

Found lots of threads talking about it, but no solution being clarified, or having service center fix it without explanation, etc.

Hello Everyone,

I installed my Teslaunch stalks this past weekend and wanted to post my installation notes and general review. Note that I received my stalk kit for free as part of a giveaway from Teslaunch. I am otherwise unaffiliated with the company.

The installation video from Teslaunch is v...

I was surprised to see an efficiency of 73 Wh/mile, then realized that we'd just driven home from a higher altitude picnic. I'd noticed that we'd gained 2% SOC by the bottom of the hill.

Realtors, watch out!

Consider this:

2026 Tesla Cyber RV: uses FSD to drive 24/7.

Operating principle: When the time derivative of your position is 0, you generally do not need to pay rent or a mortgage.

In other words, when your Tesla Cyber RV is running FSD, it is...

I recently took my Model Y from DC to the OBX, a little over 320 miles each way. I encountered a few things with FSD 12 .3.6 and routing that could have been better. First I started off with a 100% charge with 329 miles estimated. When I set my destination in the Nav, it had me charging at a Superch...

In some situations, charging at RV parks is the most efficient way to get from A to B on a road trip. When that is the case here are a few things you should know:

RV parks are a relatively low-margin business, and electrical infrastructure is a large capital expense. Wiring, breakers, and receptacl...

For the sake of it, I had to try it. I charged to 99% (didn't have the patience to go to 100) and started driving. The car originally predicted 4:06 drive time, but there was a construction that cost me 10 min. I also missed an exit that made me go a bit longer. At the end I arrived at 5% driving 27...
