Mine beeps for a mile or two then stops beeping. No breaking.

I only had to make two cuts with an exacto and cut a piece of foam off. With no weight on the trunk boards it is about 1/2” higher in the middle. With weight on it it’s flat.

I leave my racks on my Y. Only issue was incompetent Tesla service trying to install them. I notice no change in range and only a little whistle above 75 mph. I wouldn’t do a 4x8 sheet on top but two kayaks np.

Isn’t 138 degrees bad for the battery?

It’s simple, keep the state of charge as low as possible for as long as possible is best. The number of times you charge doesn’t matter.

Turbo Tax finally included the electric heat pump option. My AC/heat pump cost me almost $10K last year and I’m getting 2K tax credit for this year. I had just enough of a tax liability this year to claim my Y $7500 and my electric heat pump $2000.

I’ve gotten really good at having my foot on the accelerator and reacting fast enough to keep the “breaking “ to less than a 5 mph reduction in speed. It might prevent a tailgater from hitting me. It’s actually easier to not use the cruise control.

There is no point in which the battery is “full” or won’t take any more energy. Increase the voltage and the battery will have more charge all the way up to the point of thermal runaway. Picking 4.2v per cell is a trade off for safety, capacity, and life.

It happens to me frequently. I have to quickly step on the accelerator each time. It’s unacceptable. You don’t figure you have to research whether the car you’re buying has working cruise control.

You appear to be correct. I just tried this in Turbo Tax and my tax responsibility did not change. I stand corrected. Thank you.

If I contribute $14000 to a IRA now, ( over 50, married) that would reduce my 2023 taxes by $1680. There is no question about that. It stands to reason that if you had $14000 in your pocket that you already paid $1680 in taxes on it and since it’s for a 2023 Roth that means you paid $1680 in...

Roth contributions are after tax. So instead of a traditional IRA that defers taxes a Roth means you pay taxes now. Since you’re doing 2023 taxes and you say you will contribute $13,000 (you + spouse) to a Roth. That means you paid taxes on $13,000. Depending on your rate (I assume 12%)...

True but if you contribute 6500-7500 to a Roth IRA that could increase your tax responsibility by $800 and if you’re married maybe by $1600 depending on your age and tax bracket (I assume your last dollar is taxed at 12%).

Maybe you can convert a IRA to a Roth IRA to bump up your tax responsibility for 2023.

After I learned what an Authenticator was I was successful. Thanks for your help. I'm disappointed with how Tesla expects you to know everything. When I picked up my car I was handed the cards and told welcome to the family and the guy just walked away. Thank goodness for this forum!

Is iCloud Passwords & Keychain a Authenticator?

So I think I lucked out. Since I was able to get into the Tesla app from my phone because my phone remembers stuff and auto fills in stuff I was able to log into my account with a browser on the phone and the phone autofilling the 2 factor number. I was able to remove my device from the 2...

Thank you!!! I think I really messed up. I'm not stupid but I never knew what an authenticator app was. I've been using one for work but I didn't know it was called that. Anyways, that one wasn't used this time. I have an Iphone 12. I scanned the little square bar code that showed up on my...

I'm a little freaked out. I was looking at my Tesla account and thought that two factor authentication was that I would get a text with the code. Some things popped up on my Iphone with a code and I used it. But I don't have a third party authenticator app. Now can't get a code. Where is...

Thank you. That's just what I was looking for. I kept seeing $500 and $250 mentioned with no explanation. Bummer I missed the $500.

First time member, and possibly buyer. Do I understand this correctly, if I get a referral code from my neighbor I get $500 off a Y and they get 10,000 points?
