    FSD TIMEOUTS WITH LITTLE OR NO WARNING

    Happens to me too. So frustrating! That's why I don't trust the Tesla locking people out FSD that they paid for nor do I trust their rating system for Tesla insurance.

    Thread for the most minor of suggestions

    My complaint wasn't about cost otherwise I wouldn't be asking for something that costs over twice as much. General driving absolutely tosses rocks into a windshield, especially if the roads are crappy. I also don't tailgate. I've also never caused an accident or gotten so much as a speeding...

    Thread for the most minor of suggestions

    I don't know if changing my insurance policy will help my windshield to not get cracked.

    Thread for the most minor of suggestions

    I got a rock chip crack in my windshield about a year ago. It wasn't reparable. I didn't repair it because I knew it would just get more chips and I could live with the crack. The original crack spread. Today I got another chip which I'm sure will turn into another crack. I'll replace...

    Thieves steal high-voltage Tesla Supercharger cables from Montrose(Houston) charging station

    For sure. I'm from Houston. My parents are made fun of by others for driving Teslas by the same people who have had multiple cat converters stolen off their cars. Frankly, I'm surprised this hasn't happened much sooner.

    Thieves steal high-voltage Tesla Supercharger cables from Montrose(Houston) charging station

    If they just cut the cords and rolled coal out of there leaving them on the floor, I'd say that. but they took them. Way more likely to be crackheads selling the copper for scrap.

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    What does "best" people mean? Best is contextual, and in the tech world, the contexts change all the time. Is the best the fastest? Is it the one with the most connections? Is it the most flexible and cross-trainable? The best at site acquisition? Who gives a crap you have the Best...

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    I understand that this sounds like a stretch, but the best thing to ever happen in my life was to be laid off from my previous career. I was complacent. It was the devil I knew. I could do the job well but I wasn't happy and I wasn't motivated to go above or beyond for the job. It gave me...

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    I've come here from innocent cat video land. Apparently, it's not the same here and they won't take me back. :(

    Thieves steal high-voltage Tesla Supercharger cables from Montrose(Houston) charging station

    The most ridiculous thing is that the news video I saw said they had no idea why they would steal the cables. GEEEEEE, I WONDER WHY SOMEONE WOULD DO THAT? The news is a joke.

    Is Elon thinking of REHIRING some of the fired SuperCharging folks

    It's amazing that people who give the benefit of the doubt are "living in fantasy land"... but the people who jump to it being chaotic and reckless and he deserves to be fired... aren't living in fantasy. Both sides are just guessing as no one has met him, no one knows what's in his brain, no...

    Model Y Performance

    Most people say 15-20k miles. Maybe I had magic tires, but my tires lasted over 50k miles.

    Thoughts on Superchargers After a 2300 mile trip

    Sure did. Thanks. CCS has more stations. NACS has more stalls. Although this may have changed in the past year since this article was published. CCS: 2 stalls per station on average NACS: 11 stalls per station on average

    Thoughts on Superchargers After a 2300 mile trip

    Is that true? I don't know if that's true. In either case, I only used CCS about 3 times, and only one of those were a necessity.
