    Tesla Semi delivery event, 1 December 2022

    If they were the same why would they show the new connector installed at Frito-Lay shipping dock and how will they get to a high enough charge rate to replenish 70% in 30 min. V4 is a different connector than the MW Semi charger connector. The Semi charger will be 2-3 MW and will be increased...

    My new Model Y's range SUCKS

    So I did your tests, you can see them below. Although the tread temperatures were consistent I found the front wheels had toe out of 4mm of toe out measured at the front of the tire OD vs the rear of the same tire OD. The rear axle did have about the 5mm toe in you indicated. To be clear the...

    My new Model Y's range SUCKS

    I believe as a new battery it has about 3.5% or more left at "0%" so my 4% is probably more like 7-9% remaining. I only pushed it for science so I could see the soc on the odb data tool! Thanks though.

    Model Y Towing - Experiences Post here

    I do not have the hitch on my Y yet but I always used an anti rattle hitch pin in prior receivers. They have a nut and a spring and then thread in and get snugged. It pulls the receiver to one side to reduce the rattle. Then you can snug the nut under the trailer tongue until it fits the ball...
