    Keycard cracked, vehicle stuck

    I use my phone as the primary and the card as secondary. I've had bad experiences over the years with brittle plastic credit cards splitting in my wallet. And... when Starlink is fully operational, you won't this problem!

    What did you name your Tesla?

    SHURI. After the young tech genius in the Black Panther film (and comic).

    Cybrtrk battery efficiency

    A lot positive with battery tech will happen in the two years before the CyberTruck will be ready for mass consumption. Efficiency in Tesla batteries come from a combination of new battery technology AND software upgrades (as we can see with OTA improvements this year). Just think what your...

    Porsche Taycan EPA range

    They designed the battery pack before Tesla's and never really ventured to upgrade it... hoping to sell EVs thru name recognition and reputation. And that has backfired! Playing catchup is Porsche's MO for the next five years!

    Parked in a garage with 18% charge and no plug, will I be able to drive home later?

    Make sure you are NOT in sentry mode. You will lose about 5% in 8 hours due to the medium cold weather.

    Blog Tesla Owner Cleared of Criminal Charges After Explaining ‘Dog Mode’

    With the new law in the US that says electric cars must have sound at speeds below 20mph, Tesla has introduced a speaker on the bottom front of the car. This speaker can be easily used to tell passerbys that the animal in the car is safe... temperature set at 72°. Hence, the visual on the car's...

    Supercharger - Miami, FL - Coral Gables (speculation)

    I'm in Brooklyn, NY at our Brooklyn home for a few weeks. Our home is a typical brownstone/limestone home that was built back in 1899 when there were no cars (hence, no garages). The challenge in charging our Model 3 LR-RWD is to find a supercharger/urbancharger that we have free access to. It's...
