    Alberta imposing $200 EV tax starting in 2025

    That is supper old data from 2019. Only have three coal generators now. Today (11 April) only two are running and supplying only 7% of the grid power and wind is providing 22%. I charge my cars when the sun is up using home solar.

    Will the free FSD trial convince you to purchase FSD?

    I can't say. Still have not received the trial. :( I'm on v2024.8.7. Does that mean they skipped me?

    Alberta imposing $200 EV tax starting in 2025

    Alberta "road use" fuel tax goes into general revenue. They can use it for whatever they want. Like maybe giving the oil companies more subsidies? It would be more palatable if I knew it was going to fix our potholes. I've read Alberta will take in only about $1M worth of road use tax from the...

    Tesla Owners in Alberta

    CarFax says private sale $38,000 to $42,000. AutoTrader wholesale says $26,000 - $30,000. Not including the FSD option. FSD is still showing $16,000 for me in the Tesla App. "Enchanted Autopilot"! Sometimes it does feel like that. 🤣 You can't even get a used 2019 Prius for $24,000. It is a...

    Value of 2018 Model 3 - Best way to deal with upgrade to model Y

    Say what you like about "stealerships", but private sales can be very reasonable. I've bought and sold a lot of vehicles over the years. Always prefer private sales. I'm sure he will get much more than $25 if sold privately.

    Value of 2018 Model 3 - Best way to deal with upgrade to model Y

    Nice car. Silver is very rare. I had that colour on order before they removed it as an option. Always sell privately.

    Big decision....

    My first Tesla was a 2015 S. Still my favourite. I might go back to the S one day just because of the great memories of my first EV. I think you might want to wait a bit if you really want a Y. Rumour about the refresh will probably mean lots of discounted upgrades up for sale soon. My Y has...

    All Weather Mats

    Not happy with my first experience with Tuxmat this year. I've also always used Weathertech before but have since found MAXpiders easier to clean. Purchased Tuxmat for our Outlander as MAXpiders were not available for it. Tuxmat require side clips to keep them from bending in. The accelerator...

    MICHELIN CROSSCLIMATE 2 Real life experience

    I've run these for the last two winters on my Y. No complaints on performance. I do however like to clean my tires before installing them to check for nails or damage. In Calgary the city uses gravel instead of sand or salt. These tires collect more rocks than any I have had in the past. Here is...
