    Refresh Model S real world range

    You should be able to average 60-65mph on a long road trip. For example if you are going 1000 miles it will take you 15-16 hours in a Tesla LR vs closer to 13-14 hours in an ICE. An easy metric to use is that a Tesla will add 15-20% to your travel time on trips greater than 500 miles.

    Supercharger.info shows this as a 250kW Supercharger. I dont' see any V3 signs on the pedestals though. What was the max charge kW rate?

    Wifi not connecting for update download?

    yes, my LR AWD M3 is doing the same. I have FSD so I got 32.10.1 on Friday. I have never been able to download any firmware updates even though I know this is only a recent feature. I've tried connecting to multiple different SSIDs at my house and my iPhone's wifi but nothing will work. My...

    Supercharger - Austin, TX

    Those chargers are awful in the blue garage and there’s 14 of them. I’m lucky to get 2.5kW. Starts out at 22A instead of 30A because the cables are *sugar*. Then drops to 13A lately and sometimes down to 9A without anyone using the 2nd plug. They are damn near worthless.

    Here's some updated info from Austin Energy that a local Tesla owner was able to get in response to an email. "Thank you for your interest and support. AE requires a specific utility approved component which has been backordered for some time. We do expect to have this part shortly and the site...

    Supercharger - Austin, TX

    Checked again this morning, no one on site. I tried backing in to the stall closest to the transformer and it was difficult. If there would be a Model X in the 2nd to last stall, you would have to take a few tries to get backed in to that last spot. It's such a small parking lot.

    Model X Cargo Carrier

    I have the tow package on my X 90D but only because I couldn't get a straight answer out of Tesla as to what hardware would be installed on my car if I just went with the $200 accessory hitch option. I have 20" tires and my Bosal hitch receiver says 500lbs tongue limit, 5,000lbs towing limit. I...

    Trailer Specs - Towing Safely

    I haven't towed a trailer with mine yet but plan on doing so when I move houses later this year. I've used a cargo carrier rack a lot though. It allows me to haul about a dozen or more bags of mulch and other stuff from HomeDepot. No way would I put that stuff in my car even with a plastic liner...

    $200 tow hitch worth it?
