    Time to replace upper-control arm ball joints

    Seems the quality and honesty of the Tesla service shops vary just like any other shop. I’m 68k they want to charge me $600 for the two control arms not willing to do anything for me and i already paid them $600 for the lower control assembly. I’m going to try and grease it as suggested. It’s...

    I tried it. Super uncomfortable maybe ok for a night but not beyond it. I sent it back. The topper takes up more space but is comfortable and a third of the cost.

    I didn't remove the rear bench that was another user PNWLegacy earlier in the thread so you might want to ask them. I just folded the seats down and yes there is a slight incline but it wasn't a problem for me with the 4" foam mattress. I will say I made sure that I didn't park on a hill or if...

    I didn't have any issues. Certainly as you know this thing changes week to week and I heard like two weeks ago that Connecticut was starting to enforce the 14 day quarantine with fines. I just can't really see that impacting you. Every state is different so you just kind of have to be alert...

    oh that stinks I didn't know they were doing that now. Definitely grab the 14-50 and then there's an adapter for that if you really want to be able to use the other RV type but like i said I never needed to.

    I agree! Also you should be able to control everything from your phone so you don't have to reach up and shut the movie off, turn off the screen, adjust the sound, etc. Also if I remember right controlling the temp from your phone screws up camp mode. It's better then any other car out there...

    yea I entered by the rest stop and hit 100+ at one point and did a little drifting. There was only like 3 other cars out there and it was pretty wide open. The raceway was closed though with signs all over. I was really careful to drive around and walk the area before I tried the silly stuff...

    None whatsoever so I'm not sure why the results and I don't know if that includes at rest. I can't imagine it would. I will tell you that doing 135MPH through west TX didn't help the efficiency :)

    @jnhashmi I think this will answer your question as well. I didn't find sleeping that much out of wack. I definitely noticed it but it wasn't an issue with the 4" memory foam.

    no issues although I have to admit there is one or two mountain treks during the long drive days I might have taken but had to stick to the highway to hit the chargers on the way. Always RV parks though if you get stuck or have a tough rural route

    wow I'd love to see a picture of that if you have it. Honestly I didn't find it that bad. Maybe due to the 4" memory foam.

    Yea I hear you. I have an 8 and 9 year old so all 4 of us took the trek through the smokies, Louisianna, and to Austin where my family is. Then they flew home I did all the parks out west by myself(cheaper and easier since I could car camp), then they flew out to Denver and did the last 7-10...
