    Supercharger - Ashland, OR (LIVE 1 Sep 2023, 24 V3 stalls)

    Stopped by at 8:38am Wed 7/12. No contractors on site at present. Will be really glad to have this open. Multiple trips from Santa Barbara to Ashland in recent years, and running up to Medford to top off is rather inconvenient.

    Vendor “X-Care EV Protection” - First 3rd Party Service Agreement for Model S, Model X and Model 3!

    I just filled out the quote form on the X-Care website but didn’t see a field to submit the XcelerateTMC referral code. How can I take advantage of that?

    Radios lowers it self

    Anyone else having this issue? When freeway driving, and audio is scrolled up from volume click 23 to click 28 (appx numbers out of about 30 clicks from lowest to highest volume), system reverts to 23 within a few seconds—over and over again. Impossible to set, and keep, at 24, or 25, or 27, or...

    Speed Adjusting Audio Volume?

    Anyone else having this issue? When freeway driving, and audio is scrolled up from volume click 23 to click 28, system reverts to 23 within a few seconds—over and over again. Impossible to set, and keep, at 24, or 25, or 27, or 27, or 28. Behavior persistent and repeatable across multiple...

    Why are the side cameras called “repeaters”?

    I’ve searched Google and TMC to no avail. Especially surprised to not find that question ever asked/answered here.

    Snippiness 2.0

    A Google search, and even a TMC search, didn't answer this question for me, even though I'm surely not the first person to wonder this.

    App's "Last seen X days ago" stuck

    That was the solution (at least in my case; YMMV)! I was stuck in “Last seen x days ago” for six days, but as soon as I disconnected my Surfshark VPN and closed/reopened my app, there was my car.

    How many kWH will be used in CAMP MODE

    My 27yo son and I spent three nights in Moab UT in our Model 3 quite comfortably. The evenings were in the low 50s and the night chilled to the low 30s. We averaged about 16% battery drop each night with Camp Mode set at 66°; we were not plugged in to the campground’s utility power. The screen...

    Safety Score

    I just drove 1,800 freeway miles on a four-day trip using Autopilot 99+% of the time. I have my Follow Distance set at 7. I got dinged for Unsafe Following over 20% of the miles driven each day, resulting in a Safety Score of 97. Does not feel at all fair that I’m kept out of the FSD Beta due to...

    Supercharger - Phoenix, AZ - East Camelback Road

    Was able to charge just fine at Camelback. Crowded, but always 1-2 spots open during my time there. Thanks again for helping me be confident to route this way. Has worked out great for me.

    Supercharger - Phoenix, AZ - East Camelback Road

    Good to know. Yes, I'm juggling what ABRP recommends along with other input. I'm spending the night nearby in Tempe and will have dinner with friends, so Biltmore seemed a good option if it wasn't offline for some reason. You've saved me a bunch of miles on a day that was already full of them...

    Supercharger - Phoenix, AZ - East Camelback Road

    I’ll be driving thru Phoenix on Tue 6/22/21 and wonder if the Camelback (Biltmore Fashion Park) charger is reliable. It’s a lot closer to my path than going all the way up to Agua Fria, but for some reason that’s where ABRP wants to take me.

    The Real Use for Auto-Pilot

    I just drove home to Santa Barbara last night after a meeting in Orange County that ended at 4. In olden days I would have gone to dinner first to "wait out" the traffic (as if that were actually possible going thru LA). But with AP I knew I could just let my car [practically] chauffeur me home...

    Autopilot saved a Motorbike+Rider from an accident.

    Not clear on whether AP or NoA gets the credit for that slick move but I hope it's the former so that all AP-ready cars will take care of bikers that way, not just the cars with the paid upgrade. I responded to Elon's Twitter invitation some months ago for feedback on the Model 3 to suggest...

    The interior door latch that we shouldn't use??

    My solution: cut six 4-inch pieces of black electrical tape. Use three on each side to wrap around the emergency handle. Practically invisible fix: normal (eg, mistaken) pull won't move lever, but when needed for emergency a little bit of adrenaline will pop the tape right off and open the door...
