My 12lb dachshund loved my Prius, where the rear seat-backs fold wonderfully flat right up to the front center armrest, allowing him to partially come up to the console. Not so much in my M3 since the rear seats don't fold down sufficiently, especially with the front seats all the way back. I coul...

This is the first EV I’ve ever owned and I thought I’d post this review aimed primarily at those who are considering buying a Model Y.

All,

I'm just back from spending 2 weeks in Iceland with a Model Y rental from Hertz and wanted to record a few thoughts in case they are useful to others. We spent a couple of weeks up there, 1 week doing a fair number of miles based from within the 'golden circle', and another in and around Reyk...

I’ve been road tripping my FSDb MX for the past 9 months or so and it’s aggravating at times but I felt it did as well as AP1. Just road tripped with my AP1 MX and wow is it better than FSDb.

Selectable and relatively consistent following distance
Doesn’t change lanes for no re...

I grew up very poor in a poor family. As a child and well into my twenties, I had to watch othere's who had better tools and cars that I had to drive.

That turned into a blessing, because I developed a knack of making simple and inexpensive do the same function as expensive. That developed into e...

Speaker upgrade round #

Front soundstage clarity sounded so good I decided to upgrade the rear immediately. My sound preference is offseting the sound fade slightly moreso to the rear so when volume is up that it fills the cabin equal to the front. Similar to home system audiophile setups.
