    351 Mile Range!

    That number is almost useless. Range depends on many things, including temperature, hills, speed, head vs tail winds. Just set it to percent remaining. That’s all that really matters. However, their algorithm for estimating percent remaining at the end of a trip is very good. It even...

    Wow, we need to find another way to heat EVs

    Drag is proportional to the square of velocity. 77 is 28% greater than 60, so it requires 64.7% more energy. I would say just HUUGGEE.

    I think I just wasted $7,000 on FSD?

    I’ll bet the shorters never bought a Tesla. If they had they would have know : the product is just too good to fail.

    Stuck inside my car right now: software update is stalled

    Don't update while sitting in your car. Do it when you have a couple of hours to spare. Don't watch it -- just like boiling water...

    Reporting on Tesla by Russ Mitchell (LA Times)

    My opinion is Tesla/Musk haters cannot stand a successful person who thinks outside the box. They can’t deal with someone being so much more successful than themselves. Most don’t own a Tesla and have never driven one. Their only recourse is to bash and discredit.

    2019.7.105 (w/hw3?) center display went black while on freeway for my wife an hour ago

    Unfortunately the car is really a computer with 4 wheels. A very fun computer. But.... computers crash now and then. Hopefully over time Tesla operating software will improve greatly, and crashes will happen much less frequently. I have had mine go black now and then. And yes once the turn...

    Largest concern about buying a model 3

    There are three variables, each must be considered separately. 1. Elon Musk. 2. Tesla the company. 3. The product. 1. Elon is brillant, extremely inovative. Great for starting a company, not so good as CEO of a large company. The best thing would be to bring in a really good operations CEO...
