I have a 90 lb Lab in a VarioCage Double Large. It just barely fits in a MYLR but it does fit, you are definitely not limited to the Double Medium. You can extend it a few inches out from the smallest setting, but not all the way. Note you can't just push it straight back due to the side bolts...

Just got 2022.44.30.5 on my MYLR, and I do NOT have FSD beta enabled. (I'm also just on a one-month FSD subscription for a road trip, which is already set to cancel.) So this says to me that everyone is finally being merged onto one software release track. What does this mean for non-beta FSD...

Charged there last night...4 of 8 stalls open, as others have noted. It's super easy to access being right on 287. There is indeed a customer-accessible bathroom in the Sonic. It's so new that the car did not want to route me there even when closer to Quanah than Childress, so I had to manually...

The driving sound stayed on all the time for me, until I parked the car and it toggled itself to off. Even going 70mph on the highway.

I charged my 2021 LR up to 100% again yesterday for a road trip. Displayed range was 352 miles / 566 km at 54F in my garage. The charge constant from the 100% values is 136.8 Wh/km / 220.2 Wh/mi. Does temperature-related range loss set in at that temp to account for the 1 mile loss, or is this...

Absolutely. I’m guessing the battery life would be on par with a Tesla, but maybe it won’t accelerate as fast at the same price point. But I’m sure it’ll have other cool features even if it’s slower. Apple entering the market would definitely force Tesla to become a better company overall and...

Just got my update to 2020.48.12.1. Currently showing 167 mi/268 km at 47%, which extrapolates to 355 mi (range of 352 - 359 allowing for a range of 46.5 - 47.4%)/570 km (range of 563 - 574.) I’m at 1067 miles on the odometer, so it’s good to see the full rated range before degradation starts...

I just got an update to 2020.48.10 on my US 2021 LR. The charge constant is the same...rated range extrapolated to 100% is currently 348 miles.

It sounds like it may be deliberately low though...I wouldn’t add any without checking with Tesla. It could be that the “nominal” line is placed incorrectly.

Nope, the only sticker under that snap-in lid is the part number for the lid itself. I don’t know all the details, but...the sound from the tires hitting the pavement is partly transmitted through the air in the tire itself, and the tire can also act to amplify the sound. Having the foam causes...

I poked around some more with no luck. I was worried that my good flashlight would roll away on the aero shield so I was just using the flashlight on my iPhone (it’s right next to the lens so it should be able to light up the target?) Took a few videos while poking around but don’t see anything...

As luck would have it (for you guys, not me :)), I scraped my left rear rim pretty badly a few days ago and decided to use the mobile wheel repair service that my local service center recommended. Stupid wide Model 3...it’s a few inches wider than any other small sedan I’ve had. My car’s jacked...

Unfortunately I forgot to reset the trip meter, and the Teslamate data has a gap so I can’t calculate from that easily (looks like from where cell service was spotty in the mountains.) Good to know on the charging data. Just started looking into all this a few days ago and there’s much to...

Do you have a video showing how to find the motor plate? I poked around with my iPhone recording video behind the rear left tire, but the only part number I managed to capture was a structural element and not the motor. Note that I don’t have a jack (or the pads even if I borrow one)...is this...

This is a good point, though I was also basing this on the LG batteries supposedly being 74.5kWh usable (unless I’m misunderstanding that.) Both from the math that @AlanSubie4Life did above and looking at my 12->90% supercharging session that added 60.7kWh (== 77.8kWh extrapolated to 100%.) One...
