    Wh/km (or mi) / range grossly mis-advertised, if not fraudulent... srsly.

    Hmmm, driving habits have been avoided in this thread for some reason, all baout the math maybe? I would just add, in Canada summer in my 2017 mS I can get close to 600km IF I never exceed 80km/hour on a long highway trip. However, if I maintain 100km/hour my range drops to about 440km, if i go...

    Legacy Model S nice to haves

    What we get is what we get, what we miss is what we miss. ZOOM ... why does TESLA not give legacy Model S ZOOM, in one of the following forms: (a) usable without an internal camera (still join meetings but with voice only)? (b) allow user to add his own internal camera via one of the USB ports...

    Buyers Remorse because of cameras

    I have just got a 2023 model YLR. (P vin and manufactured October 27th 2022) It still has the sensors, does that mean i do not have the new cameras? Also, I thought there was supposed to be an internal camera pointing towards the driver, I do not see it. Does not come with YLR?

    Front driver side lights unavailable 1 hour into each journey.

    Checked yesterday, no obvious towers etc. LTE 3 bars. Spoke to the owner of the establishment, confirmed no unusual electrical equipment or generators. I will just ignore this now, continue parking one house away from the store (they really are the only place to buy great hot and spicy vegetable...

    Front driver side lights unavailable 1 hour into each journey.

    Hmmm, I did not try a full reboot immediately after leaving the area. But I did when i got home. It had no effect, I had to wait for the next day for indicator to work again. I will have a look for a tower tomorrow. Might just look at the LTE signal strength too. Thanks.

On stopping and checking, OTHER 2 indicator lights on the driver side working (but flashing faster than normal). Checking headlights, Driver headlight also out. Continue journey without...

    2700 Mile Road Trip - 2020 Tesla Model S LR

    To put it more accurately, I used 35% going uphill for 122km, as opposed to 24% going downhill for 122km (same route). In general, driving over the speed limits, no regard to optimal efficiency. But the numbers are consistent over several trips. Since I charge up every night, i don't care about...

    2700 Mile Road Trip - 2020 Tesla Model S LR

    Thanks for the observations! re unexplained loss of range through Louisiana .... factors could be (a) driving into wind (b) driving to higher elevations. One journey I regularly do of 75 miles each direction, with a difference in elevation of 1500 feet, results in using 50% more energy in the...
