    Supercharger - Roseville, CA - Douglas Boulevard (LIVE 18 Oct 2023, 16 Stalls)

    I was able to charge this morning, even though it didn't show up on the screen.

    Need for Tesla Advertising / PR

    I can't remember the last time I actually paid attention to ANY advertisement. I watch recorded shows and skip all the commercials. I don't read newspapers or magazines. Any adds that appear in my Twitter/FaceBook/whatever feed I quickly recognized as an add and skip over it without...

    Supercharger - Needles, CA - E. Broadway St. (LIVE 27 Feb 2023, 12 V3 stalls)

    Methinks the spelling of these superchargers is wrong...

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

    What I find interesting is that all the press I can find online concerning the event completely misses the features of the factory -- 4680, building many of the sub-components on site, etc., basically all the stuff from the tour. They only focus on the few tidbits from his presentation -- and...

    Launching 4900 lb boat with 1200 lb trailer with MXP

    Launching shouldn't be a problem, as long as you don't jerk the trailer around -- as you said, slowly and carefully! Pulling the boat out may be more of an issue, since you'll have to climb the ramp, and there may be additional weight from any water in the hull. I suspect you'll be well within...

    Tesla BEV Competition Developments

    Funny, I was just thinking this as I opened the thread.

    Supercharger - Glendive, MT (LIVE Jun 2020, 8 V3 stalls)

    Glendive is down - all stations would not charge my car, and someone else reported the same results. Called Tesla and they diagnosed a problem with the car, but I was able to charge with no problems in Dickinson when I finally got there.

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

    Sorry about the link, but that's what showed up with a Google search. In any case, according to Tesla (Emergency Response Guide) the model S does contain ultra high-strength steel in key areas.

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

    This is not true. The Model S (and Model X) have sections of high-strength and ultra high-strength steel in the b-pillars and top cross members as shown below: You can see this steel in the after photos of the burned shell. The steel is what's left behind.

    Cyber Lndr (Camper for Cybertruck)

    1200 lbs dry, 1360 lbs wet (40 gal fresh, 20 gal gray). They talk about a dolly being developed to remove/install it into the truck -- no details other than that. Nothing about securing it to the bed yet. I assume it plugs into the outlet shown at the Cybertruck reveal and therefore could be...

    Supercharger - Copperopolis, CA (LIVE 31 Mar 2021, 12 V3 stalls)

    The photo is of the back of the building, so the coordinates on Supercharge.info should be correct.

    AutoSock 698 Trial Fit

    Why on the rear wheels? Seems fronts would be better for braking, steering and acceleration.

    Supercharger - Copperopolis, CA (LIVE 31 Mar 2021, 12 V3 stalls)

    I saw a posting on Next Door (Nextdoor is the neighborhood hub for trusted connections and the exchange of helpful information, goods, and services. Join your neighborhood.) showing a picture of the Superchargers being installed in Copperopolis, CA. Coordinates: 37° 58.372'N 120° 39.196'W...

    Missing count of remaining posts (with link to next page)

    Thanks for all the work to get this update installed and running. One feature from the old version that appears to be missing (and was something I used a lot) was the link in the lower right of each page that showed the remaining posts in a thread and the link took you to the next page. I...
