I've done this (last time was my last trip before lockdown in 2020, as part of a trip from San Jose to Phoenix and back). I would say to trust your in-car navigation. It knows your status, and knows where the Superchargers are. I prefer 101 as a road in general, but 5 is quicker and has a nice...

I was quite happy with the San Jose to Boise (and back) I did in my X (75D, est 210mi to a full charge) back in May 2017. Sure, it took longer than my parents who did it in their ICE minivan (we went around through twin falls, because that was what was available on the supercharger network). Of...

7. Figure out a way to tell if the drive has been updated and not scan the drive (nearly) every time the car is turned on. 8. Better error recovery (if read error, go to next track).

I did it last year in my 75, but I went through Twin Falls - which, outside of the charging, puts added time on the trip (7:47 total trip). I see there's a charger at the Say When Casino in McDermitt - and that will only 2 hours onto your trip (4:20 total trip). So the long way around has 2...

There are songs I know have images embedded, but are not being displayed. It is pulling all those images through it's own service.

Oh, you mean like The Curly Shuffle by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band?

Here's just an average day of driving around the Silicon Valley in my blue Model X, being followed by a blue Model S and a blue Model ☰. We'd be joined by a black Model X in a mile or so. You really can't swing a cat around here without hitting a Tesla. In fact, my parents have taken to doing...

Yesterday, on our way back home from the pictures, we got in a 3-way formation on an offramp of all blue Teslas. A brand new S (no plates yet) a slightly less new ☰ (with plates), and my rather dirty late summer 2016 X (not visible in it's own rear view camera). Ultimately, this is an "Only in...

Last Saturday we went to a car meetup where the old hot-rods were decked out in lights. We put on the show three or four times in the hour we were there.

I find it curious as Google owns Waze, and the main display map is Google...

Or a house with lights on both sides of the garage. Or parked cars that reflect your light.

TheWife(tm) found it on the test drive...

I've been having an intermittent issue where it'll take several presses of the homelink button to get teh garage to do its thing. This also affect the homelink button on the app.

You know, it's been a little over a year since I got the X and I can't remember if there's an adjustment or if it was separate guides...

The iPhone X is smaller than my current 7+ (the X is 70.9mm wide, where the 7+ is 77.9mm) and my 7+ fits in the guides that were supplied.
