<br />
So bit of background.. I come from driving a subaru in the canadian interior mountains for the past 10 years. Prior to that was a FWD Honda. I ski and drive over mountain passes frequently and consider myself experienced in winter driving and variable conditions, as we&#039;re frequently above and below freezing, back and forth, with lots of precipitation.<br />

I checked many posting and decided to try a few things. RPM noise reduction kit and the roof noise reduction. Installed on doors, drunk and trunk. works great. <br />
I bit the bullet and purchased 18 inch forged Martian Wheels with Nokian all weather tires. Had 21 induction wheels. <br />
Big ride difference- better handling, longer range. I am very pleased. I’m good for now. Thought I would share]]></content:encoded>

The Basecamp is heavier at 3,500lbs compared to the 1,500lb Scamp...but it seems more aero, and I heard that drag is more important factor than weight when it comes to energy drain.

It has three setting for steering Comfort, Standard and Sport, but none of them improve matters.  The Comfort is the least offensive, because the other two just get heavier and even more dead.  I drive Porsches and I realize that my expectations might be higher than average.  I didn&#039;t expect the Tesla to have great feel, but it is bad, not just disconnected and dull,...<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I had a situation yesterday.  My Model Y front and rear bumpers were covered with ice and snow causing the vehicle to think that it was blocked by some objects and refused to allow me to move the vehicle.  After trying to debug for a while, I came to this realization and cleaned off the snow and ice, and this resolved the situation and allowed me to move the vehicle.  Does anyone encounter the same situation?  Thanks.]]></content:encoded>
