    Lawn mowers and gardening equipment pollution: Why are ICE engines still legal in California?

    This one was a gift from my son in December. I was able to clean up the leaf stragglers, and was quitting just as the 2.5 was exhausted. With the lighter weight of the 2.5, i didn't feel any need for the backpack power option. I am pleased that it joins its 4AH brother that came with an EGO...

    Elon Musk

    Define 'more hardware'. I'm not yet convinced that one or more AP computer swaps (which are practical given appropriate feature price) are insufficient. Elon's primary point, was and is that the SENSOR hardware which is much less practical to replace will be sufficient. i.e. his recent...

    Did release 2019.5.15 increase the range?

    The first evening after 5.15 update charge stopped at 290 up from 276 with no change to 90% charge limit. Yes this is for LR RWD.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Not if the distributed cost is less than the transmission cost, which some say is already happening. I definitely recommend the book. I read this in ebook form back in February 2016 before I reserved my M3 on March 31. This video from April 2018 is the best update I've seen since watching a...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Seems obvious to me that you significantly underestimate the effect of a long series of incremental updates. So sure 'replaced', but from the inside out right under the noses of many...

    Trains, Tesla and People Moving for Workday Commutes

    Can't believe I wasted my time watching that. Speaking of snake oil salesman. Sort of missed the entire point that smaller diameter is why it can be cheaper and that actual 10x cost advantage only comes with the v3 boring machine. Cynic is too generous of a characterization.

    Tesla Semi

    Flexibility isn't free. If one charge cable is adequate then of course E is the best option. Otherwise D is the most cost effective option (if 5 charge cables are adequate) Even at one third of provided demand parameter ($200), D still undercuts C. At the provided demand parameter, B also...

    Model 3 Software Update 46.2

    The app says that for me too, but scheduled works fine anyway. As does using app to start/stop charging. Not sure this is new with 46.2 but is 'recent'.

    Supercharger - Bloomsburg, PA

    But ... looks like issue was only installation sequence. P.S. now that I 80 is filled in this is a great location. I use I476 from Philly metro so Tannersville is too far east. Allentown too close to home. Bellefonte a tad too far away in a snowstorm. I've used this charger three times in...

    Supercharger - Bloomsburg, PA

    November 16 at 9:28 AM. After using high top shoes to kick snow away was able to reach charger. Is this a common occurrence? Should I be packing my emergency shovel for next winter trip? Edit: typo

    2018.42.4 NO AP?

    Same here. This may not be specific to 42.4. Also tried power down. Still running 42.2 from early last Wednesday. NoA worked 'fine' yesterday. Suddenly this morning, 'no cruise' and gray lane lines were fixed and off center. After reboot no lane lines, still no cruise.

    Updated to Version 2018.42.3

    Fixed for me in 42.2. I used long press to turn it on and leave it on three days ago.

    Model 3 Software Update 2018.42.x

    I've been impressed. I've done two commutes with NOA so far. I've cranked the setting up to 'mad max' already since I have little tolerance for driving under set speed when other lanes are available. Was unsure at first how it would work on commute that transitions from divided to freeway and...

    Frunk latch?

    Thanks for the update. Emergency road service suggested similar pushing/pulling when i called on Sunday. Which still didnt work. I showed up at Devon sc on Monday after calling ahead on the way. They tried similar procedure again with no success, and did confirm secondary selenoid at fault...
