    SpaceX Starship - Orbital Test Flight - Starbase TX

    This thing isn't going to fly until 4/20 for sure..... There will be a one day slip. Any bets on that prediction??

    Checking on a Rumor

    Greetings : I am sending this selfish note to ask for information, help and advice. I have made such requests a few times in the past and have always received kind and helpful responses, so I decided to try to take advantage of you all again. I hope that I can return the favor some time...

    Model 3 WiFi Connection [Unable to Connect]

    This wi fi thing is a huge pain.... My Model S can see the home network when parked next to the Model 3. My phone can see the network when I am sitting in the model 3. My model 3 sees only one or two weird network signals, but not either of mine. I screwed around with this for hours...

    Tesla backing away from "Phone Key as primary key"

    Greetings Please add me to the list of those wishing that they had a key fob for their model 3. We have both an S and a 3. My wife drives the 3 and continually complains about the issues related to the phone and the card. This system is a pain in the rear compared to using the fob that came...

    Multi-Tesla Model 3 Households Survey

    Hi I am proud to say that we own 3 Teslas, My S, Her 3 and one that only goes 8 miles an hour. They are appropriately red, white and blue. The 3 is now 2 days old and it is a far, far better car than I anticipated!!! I might add that all of the postings about bad fit, etc/.....False...

    Summon and HomeLink

    These postings are a bit old. Let me add that I have a 3 year old Model S and a two day old Model 3. I moved the S to the "other" side of the garage and put the 3 in there to make things easier for my wife. I changed Home link and all is well with both cars EXCEPT that when I try summon...

    Door issues: ajar by itself and then stuck shut w/handle extended

    Ok....let me report my door handle saga. My left rear door handle failed to retract. Opened from inside...closed again, no help. I rebooted everything twice...no help. I went to the forums and the web...they suggested pulling some fuses and reseating them. I found that my 2015 85D...

    Has anyone made the run from Jackson, MS to Memphis, TN ??

    I learned from experience that my 85D had plenty of range to make that trip. The biggest issue I had was, as I said earlier, the result of the fact the navigation system (at the time of this writing) did not know of the existence of the Memphis super charger. When you enter Memphis SC it says...

    Has anyone made the run from Jackson, MS to Memphis, TN ??

    Greetings and thanks again for all of your encouragement and suggestions. I made that trip over the weekend and it went very smoothly. There were a few interesting issues, but the car performed perfectly and I finished the trip even more enamored of it. The big glitch was my fault. My...

    Has anyone made the run from Jackson, MS to Memphis, TN ??

    Thank you all for the terrify tips and the encouragement....I will stop by the gas station (!??) tonight and inflate the tires....I did not think of that one.. I don't have a Chademo adapter but if things start looking too scary, I will slow down and find a truck to draft carefully. I am off...

    Has anyone made the run from Jackson, MS to Memphis, TN ??

    Hi After 1.5 years, I have finally decided to try to get my S 85D with 19 inch wheels from Austin to Memphis to see the grand kids rather than burning gas in our Acura MDX. I will leave early in the morning this Friday, the 20th. The leg from Jackson to Memphis looks a bit...."Scary"...

    With 8.0 I have to take over for auto pilot more

    For what it is worth my experience with version 8 is that it does a much better job of stopping when the car ahead stops. It is very civilized and not so abrupt as was version 7. Unfortunately, The auto steer application is NOT better that version 7. It is more stressful to use it than to...
