Tesla's Supercharger Team was recently laid off. We discuss what this means for the company on today's TMC Podcast streaming live at 1PM PDT. You can watch on X or on YouTube where you can participate in the live chat.
Echo's my thoughts about the Cybertruck. Its not ready for production and some of you are being used as test mules and have spent a lot of your hard earned money for the privilege of being a Tesla tester. A darn shame if you ask me.
I can't help but feel they rushed this to the market and then a...
Foundation meaning in the English dictionary - "The act of spending $20,000 to be the first in my neighborhood to own a test vehicle not yet ready for production".
Not when I had my battery replaced. Information came straight from multiple people at Tesla including the insurance company. Only new cars then received brand new batteries. I had my work done at a Tesla dealer.
What makes you think its brand new? I am very confident that its a refurb. I had to have my battery replaced due to hitting something in the road and Tesla told me and many others, that only brand new cars get brand new batteries. Everyone else gets Refurbs! Nowhere in that letter does it say...
Imagine spending $20,000 to be first on the block and then finding out your battery pack is half empty. I cant help but see that annoying The Simpsons kid in my head saying "ha ha". Tesla Cybertruck teardown shows battery pack is 'half empty' and we are confused
I use the OEM one without any issues. Super sticky. I live in Texas and drove without a front plate for about 6 months before the local police stopped me and gave me a warning. I see the same guys every day and so I had to fit the plate. I've seen neighbors being stopped for the same thing. I...
I felt the same way but it will get worked out. Get it towed to Tesla and talk with your insurance company. Tesla will take a look and tell you what damage you have done. The insurance adjuster will go out there and confirm it. Mine wrote a check to Tesla right there and then minus my...
Why would you think that? I had mine towed to the local Austin Service center and they did all the work after getting approval from my insurance company. All good.
Scratching my head as to why you would want to own an expensive Cybertruck when your credit is not good and have to do the other things you mentioned. Is a Cybertruck that important to you? Its just a vehicle.
Do not drive it. Get it towed to Tesla. I ran over something big and metal in the middle of my lane at 55 mph and it ripped off the weak plastic protection covers, damaged the metal protecting the battery, damaged the coolant line and the battery. I was so pizzed. Someone had hit a deer and then...
Well that's a big coincidence. Same thing happened to me recently (in the past week) and I am also in Texas. I was scrambling to get the air conditioner to clear the front screen and it was also foggy outside. I had to stick my head out of the drivers window to see where I was going. I also...
Model Y values have tanked due to price reductions and the state of the EV marketplace. Interest rates are pretty high too. Rivian on the other hand has not reduced their pricing and their truck is super expensive. If its not too late to get out of it, I would cancel the Rivian order and work on...
The material does not look great but most importantly, they just do not fit as good as the MaxPider. Just take a look at the Tesmanian video as an example and see the fitment. Can you see the gaps because I can? Can you see that gap in the right rear? Now go compare them to a 3D Maxpider...
I am not qualified to provide all the answers as I live in Austin - Texas and park my car in my garage. But I can say that if you turn off Sentrymode, battery drain should be little and there is no reason why you cannot leave the Tesla outside for a month. In my experience, Sentrymode and Cabin...
I have seen a lot of people recommend Tesmanian but after seeing them, I just do not get it. The 3D Maxpiders are in another league. I feel the same way about Weathertech. Those guys advertise a lot and some people swear by them. But for me they are overpriced and nowhere near as good as the...
Ive owned my Model Y for 20 months. I used the credit card sized key to open the door on delivery day and I have never used it since. I set my phone up as the key on delivery day. My phone battery never dies, but I do carry a Tesla credit card sized key in my tiny RFID protected CC wallet just...
I tried to save money by buying a cheaper brand but then threw them away and purchased 3D Maxpider. For me, they are the best out there. I have them in all three of my cars.
I hate to ask...but why? Is this your first Tesla? I cannot imagine carrying a fob around and having to use it. I walk up to my car with my phone in my pocket and the car unlocks as soon as I open the car. I walk away from my car with my phone in my pocket and the windows close and the car locks.
And to those who said that Circle K would have no idea whats going in, here is their response to my communication with them.
“It appears most of the work is done for the charger installation at our Dripping Springs location. According to Tesla, who is managing this install project, we are...
Breaking news all, chargers should be up and running by end of today. I just stopped by as there were three Pedernales Electric trucks parked there and a bunch of guys working on it. They told me they hope to have them live by end of day. I will try and confirm this later, though I will not get...
So you are saying that a company called Circle K that has 40,000 employees and over 15000 stores knows nothing about the status of superchargers on their property? I highly doubt that.
Still no sign of the meter base. I have been glancing over at it each morning. :)
I did call the gas station and spoke to the manager, she said that they are not being told anything about it. They are aware that its not operational yet but had no more information. She pointed me at calling...
I suspect that the order number has little impact on the delivery sequence. Who remembers the long waits we had for Tesla Model Y's? I was in the queue for 7+ months and sometimes people who ordered after me were receiving their vehicles. I suspect it depends on the trim, your location...
Something else to add as I know this gas station real well. There will never be issues of ICE cars parking in the supercharger spots. Nobody parks at this side of the gas station.
I just stopped by to see whats what and take some updated photos. I could not resist plugging in just to check if it’s working. Lol. No power yet. There are 8 stalls. I was concerned about two of them being blocked by trucks gassing up, but they have thought of that and removed the option to gas...
This is great news. This is right near my house and i gas up my MX5 at this Valero. I had no idea they were installing superchargers here. I must be blind. Lol.
To be fair, the big DEF tank you see in the photo blocks the view of the chargers on Sawyer Ranch road and the chargers are behind the...
As others have said in the comments above mine, turn off SentryMode and Cabin overheat protection and you should be totally fine. Recommend you also avoid waking you car up by starting the app. I've done some tests parked at Austin - Texas airport in the heat of the summer and Sentry Mode uses a...
Just purchased an 8BitDo SN30 Pro Bluetooth gamepad and it connected in secs to my 2022 Model Y performance. Car is running at 2023.38.6 right now. Best Buy had it on sale for a little over $30. Worked with all the games. Hope that helps.
Model 3 RWD has a different battery tech than a MYP. Could be totally unrelated. I have left my 2022 MYP at an airport for a whole week with almost no loss of battery percentage. Sentry Mode is the biggest sucker of power, followed next by Cabin Overheat protection. Turn them off and try not to...
