    Another Direct Model X vs. Rivian Comparison: My Personal Experience

    Thanks for your comparison! Rivian service centers have been my big hesitation. I've been an avid offroader for years and I like the style of the Rivian R1T & S. I currently drive a 2020 MS LR+ - the last of the non yoke. The yoke to me said I'll never buy another Tesla. My last trip in for...

    Leaf falling from the tree, onto the Tesla.

    Agreed. I'm often annoyed by the folks ramming up my ass while on the road traveling at reasonable rates these days. There are just some times I am motivated to push a bit more. With that said, those times I may throw on waze. As for Waze & Bluetooth - It's on. It works in my motorcycle...

    Leaf falling from the tree, onto the Tesla.

    Thanks for the run through for the MobilEye system! That's the part I never heard. THAT would make sense to me. A completely different platform, not just upgraded cameras, etc. Of course, no sales weenie will ever have THAT kind of information. As for talking myself out - Absolutely...

    Leaf falling from the tree, onto the Tesla.

    Very cool. I'll have to try it out. seems to just be a blank page on my browser here, but I'll see what it'll do in the car. It's rare I'm speeding too - been well over a decade since I had a ticket, I'm just too old to care. :D

    Reverse Lights - Any actual solutions?

    Just picked up my 2020 Model S this week. Anemic reverse lights. Has anyone come up with a solution? I've read they're controlled by a computer for brightness on other threads, so a software update may fix it-- but that's been a while since they've known of the issue. Perhaps all of us that...

    Juicebox Pro 40 or Tesla Gen 3 Wall Connector?

    Yes, can confirm, it's still a Model S. I even went to check. (just kidding!) So As an update - it turns out it started off at the 33/34 mph charging, but at some point thereafter, it dropped to 22mph charging, and this was not while nearing the end of the charge cycle, like we all know and...

    New Delivery! Keys? Charging Cable, Adapters?

    Yep, this TOTALLY got me too! HAHA! You almost have to press it wait a moment for light ring games, then it works!

    Juicebox Pro 40 or Tesla Gen 3 Wall Connector?

    Hey folks, Looking at the specs, I was expecting that I'd be replacing my old Juicebox Pro 40 with a new Tesla Gen3 Wall Connector. Their graph shows: 40amp circuit 7.7kW, 23mph 60amp circuit 11.5kW, 34mph I took Delivery of my 2020 Model S LR+ yesterday, when I got home for the night, I...

    8.5' vs 18' cable

    Think of someone who parks outside. They put a post in, and have their parking spot - no need for the big wrangle of cord. I currently own a Juicebox Pro 40 w/ some 18 or 20 foot cord. It's annoying, at times. Garages get dirty. The cable gets dirty. It gets twisted, you flip it around or...

    New Delivery! Keys? Charging Cable, Adapters?

    Hey folks, Thanks for all the replies! I can confirm, 2 keys, 1 charger cable, 1 wall adapter for that to the standard US 110v socket and the J1772 adapter, which I officially used the very first time I got home. I already have a Juicebox Pro 40 on a 50amp circuit from my 2018 Leaf I had prior...

    New Delivery! Keys? Charging Cable, Adapters?

    Today is in theory, my pickup day of a new, 2020 S Long Range. What should I verify is in the car? I've not been able to figure out what it comes with for charging accessories. Do these have CCS adapters? ChaDEmo adapters? J1772 > Tesla adapters? I assume no owners manual since it's on...

    I try not to bring anyone in my vehicles, unless I -really- know them. Good tip though! Dave

    Leaf falling from the tree, onto the Tesla.

    I'm not sure if it shows my account age on this forum, but I've been considering Tesla's for a long time. I've been very close to buying one several times, but each time I couldn't justify it. Other vehicles I bought instead, 2016 Sonata Hybrid, 2018 Nissan Leaf. My wife and I both do real...
