    Can the CyberTruck replace a delivery truck?

    My drive going uphill to work a mile from you (OC to CNO) on the same route in my TMY has a higher consumption than your CT with a pallet going downhill, haha. But thanks for posting the details I do make deliveries to OC in a cargo van it'll be interesting to see when there will be a EV with...

    2021 MYP Uberturbine 21" to 20" Aftermarket Wheels... 30 pound weight savings

    Tire quality contributes a bunch to ride quality as well, but unfortunately there is not very much published information about this aside from anectodal info listed on the tirerack site. Its also helpful to note that my comparison was for 21" Pirelli's that came with the 21MYP and I don't keep...

    Gen 3 Tesla and Gen 3 J1772 Wall Connector Install Write up with Photos!

    If you want to run 48 amps you'd need a 60 amp breaker (plus the appropriate spec'ed wire and associated conduit. Wall connector can handle a variety of voltages, so you just decide what you want to do. And if your city/installer wont sign off on it, you can show him this manual, or find...

    Gen 3 Tesla and Gen 3 J1772 Wall Connector Install Write up with Photos!

    8 awg copper is perfectly fine for a 240V 40A run. One was less than 5'. We've crossed checked it on several calculators and code before proceeding. It was too long ago that we did the install, but if you see any literature that says otherwise please do let me know.

    Gen 3 Tesla and Gen 3 J1772 Wall Connector Install Write up with Photos!

    The two wall connectors are each their own, independent circuit with individual breakers going into the panel. The 60 amp setting is in the Wall connector setup, which denotes the "max combined draw" allowable by both connectors. Wall connectors are not daisy chained or connected to each other...

    Charging in Big Bear Lake

    I charged at the nearest s/c at the base of the hills. That said, most AirBNB's will have a 110V outlet to charge your car, assuming it has a driveway.. although you'd probably add 20-30 miles after a night of charging.

    Supercharger - Costa Mesa, CA (LIVE 10 Apr 2023, 8 V3 stalls)

    Just a few cones left on the site today, but no power (tried plugging in LOL). Looks to be setup for a future magic dock location, since you can back in from either side.

    Tesla Model Y Rear Door Paint Damage

    I put PPF on my rear doors (blue) after similar damage, although i had to touch up every single hole to get rid of the white specs. It has prevented further damage to the door, HOWEVER the rocks still hit the paint above and in front. The only way to further reduce this is front mud flaps, and...

    Yeah, feels like a slower adopting state for EV's but who knows, might be worth checking

    Supercharger idle fees.... How do we charge THIS clown?

    In many states its illegal to block charging spots, so they'd get a ticket pretty quick if the police were called.
