    Is this not deceptive?

    Also, I disagree that this is deceptive. Some people with expensive gas, cheap electricity, and a long commute save even more than that. They need to communicate with their marketing that the fuel cost savings play a potentially significant role in the total cost of ownership, and they're doing...

    Is this not deceptive?

    Seems like a pattern of catchy headlines with inflammatory content: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/is-it-over-youtube-video-says-evs-are-done.327380/ Unsubscribe. Edit: sorry, my response was harsh. But Tesla has enough *real* problems to deal with that I don't think we need to...

    Is this not deceptive?

    Most companies are deceptive, so no surprises here.

    Is there a setting for speed camera and red light camera alerts?

    Seems like it would need a destination, otherwise how would it know what path to warn you about? How does Waze and others handle this?

    Charging at home at 16 amps instead of 32

    I've been using scheduled departure for a couple of years, never missed the target once. Climate too.

    Charging at home at 16 amps instead of 32

    Interesting. Then it's not the PCS.

    Charging at home at 16 amps instead of 32

    PCS failure? Multimeter will tell you what the receptacle is putting out.

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    A relay attack is probably not that difficult... a pair of flipper zeroes for $170 each is probably enough to carry this out. If someone is determined enough to do this, they'll probably just follow you for a bit and watch you type your PIN to drive as well (with, for example, binoculars). I'd...

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    Who would then open the door? A relay attack just makes the car think the driver is close by. It can't originate, for example, the "pop driver door" command. It seems like this type of theft would require a person at the vehicle. Which means either two people, or the device near the owner is...

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    Probably would take two people... one near you with a device and one near the car with a device and to open the door.

    Time to disable bluetooth as a key?

    Just use PIN to drive and call it a day. Has there been a recent uptick in relay attacks on Teslas? That'd be news to me. As it turns out, you can sledgehammer your way right into just about anyone's home. Not gonna build a castle for fear of sledgehammer attacks.

    Wise to order now with changes on the immediate horizon?

    Of course we care about LED lights!! Are you getting old on us @ucmndd?

    reliability

    The in-cabin camera has been watching our eyes for a while, and will nag / disengage if you're not watching the road. The "talk" was about Tesla doing away with the wheel torque nag and relying on eyes only. Not sure if that's just a rumor though. Seems like they'd want both your eyes on the...
