Needs to be done quickly, most people don't have the patience in parking lots, u turns etc Gonna get honked at I dont even think a j turn isn't easily done anymore

I dont remember where I heard that from either, I just remember it. It's a lot easier to replace an electrical motor than it is to replace an entire gas engine, and cheaper. There's in theory less to go wrong with the car, though my model s has proved otherwise.

Elon first sold me on the idea that teslas are supposed to be a forever car, but the newer ones they have made like the 4680 model y goes to show they want a forever replacement car where it becomes impossible to repair anything. 057 technologies said they tried to look at a 4680 battery model...

it varies by region, my power is cheaper in livermore vs what my buddies plan in antioch is. His rates are 46 cents off peak and 47 cents peak last time I checked. We have found out there's a maximum amount of money you can get charged with his plan, and I think it was $4500 or something and the...

pge did what they could to screw us on that too. my previous rates were off peak from 11pm to 7am, partial peak from 7-2 / 9-11 and peak from 2-9 they changed it to off peak midnight to 3pm partial peak from 3-4 / 9-midnight and peak from 4-9 so now when im not home not using electricity and...

Tesla isn't responsible for the price increases. Pge has done 2 rate hikes this year already, and what sucks to think about is we are on winter rates still. When things go over to summer rates it will get more expensive, making an electric car not as cost savings as the company would like you to...

I'm pretty worried about this too and makes me question purchasing more tesla products, and makes me further question the products I've already bought. But I was told to not worry about it, the team has been shifted to another department. Different focuses such as reliability and expanding...

So this is from a tesla employee, they are focusing on expanding current sites where congestion exists and less on new locations 😔 Things will ramp back up. Maybe elon is upset that he's made the promise to never need to wait at a charger and that isn't happening, so firing the entire team...

this is what makes me worry about my fusc, maybe newer upcoming superchargers i wont have free supercharging anymore because they wont be tesla owned. luckily theres a pretty extensive network to get me almost anywhere, but it wont get me everywhere.

i dunno, its just a guess. if its me id never want to work for tesla, and im kinda not really happy on the amount of money ive spent on their products because of stuff like this, yet i still keep buying their *sugar*. ugh.

I think it's been open to other contractors to build out the supercharging network, so maybe it's cheaper to outsource the work, just my guess. Maybe they will hire more local companies to do work in areas where the new chargers are going.

I took it apart and aside from the wire that does the window defrost and the piece I'm tapping on, the rest of the insides seem pretty solid, im adding a piece of felt on the plastic piece on the back, and maybe some double sided tape on the defrost wire and maybe it'll help. Can't upload the...

I hope gas stations don't shut down, I just hope they all convert over to fast charging stations. I'd love to see more supercharging stations with convenience stores and bathrooms, so we have something to do while we wait when charging

Fair enough, and I'll also point out like with the baker station and electrify america had to build solar and battery backup in order to put their fast dc chargers there. I don't know who was there first, tesla or ea, but that's the companies way around the limits of the power company.

Definitely not making this up, go be a troll somewhere else. I've spoken to property owners who told me this.
