I assume miniscule but does anyone know the power savings of not running radar? I assume if a future fsd version doesn't use radar they can turn it off permanently in firmware.

Could you pm?

@MN-MS100D , hi did you see my question? Thanks!

Can you post a picture please? I can't quite picture how far it sticks up above the floor. I was thinking if I get my wife a foldable that I might fit both it and my Evelo Aroura limited in the back. Seats folded and parcel lid removed. Buying a rack and installing a hitch mount sounds like a...

Are there any aftermarket chargers which support wireless charging PLUS leave a usb connection. We have one phone w/o wireless and one with it.

You could always consider the good you're doing for your children by not using fossil fuels...

No the wheels are oem. The noise doesn't sound like a pump it's more like a metal on metal groan. Could this have anything to do with the control arm fails covered extensively in other threads?

My car is 2 months new. I only noticed this the other day because it's not really noticeable unless outside the car or inside with windows down and radio off. If I turn the wheel to lock, in either direction, there is a loud groaning sound. I've noticed no handling issues or anything. Is this...

It was calm that day. Elevation didn't change a lot. I'm still slightly skeptical if the wh/mi will match the kwh i have to put back in. Has anyone done that experiment: start full, record wh/mi after a couple 100 miles then see if the kw need to return to full matches up?

Good point, the weather was around 75 and also I had no passenger.

I haven't had my car long (500 miles) but the wh/mi numbers seem far too good to be true. I need to actually fill it then drive x miles and fill again to verify I guess. Driving in autopilot auto nav today, running around 65 with Windows down and fan on low, no ac , got 198/mile. Crazy if true?

I'm wondering if the power level of the supercharger is taken into account by the Tesla nav when routing a trip? Obviously a V3 charger is a lot faster and thus if the route went slightly out of it's way to hit one then it would be the faster path overall. Likewise it might stretch out a leg in...

Great White Shark. Grandkids liked it.

I wonder if future cars will use Starlink for connectivity? Could be a win-win with cheaper and higher speeds for consumer and the money going to Tesla Inc. If so, I kinda doubt existing cars could be retrofitted cost effectively but what do i know....

Do you want to send me a file and I'll try it? Perhaps something to do with vbr rate or... If you do pm me and I'll give you my email.
