    Early retirement strategies

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to do - but I don't believe a "backdoor conversion" would be ideal with already purchased stock. A Roth Backdoor conversion is used when someone makes over the Roth Contribution limit ($139k in 2020 for individual) but wants to take advantage of an...

    Supercharger - Hartford, CT - Leibert Road

    But how will the Toyota show room Mirai's get charged without a completed hydrogen station?

    Supercharger - Hartford, CT - Leibert Road

    Yeah this is surprising, there have already been chargers installed downtown for some time now.

    New 40.50 Software

    Thank you, I have my car connected via wifi in the garage and it's not been a problem in the past. The only "change" I could think of was a few months ago I had a service tech come and replace a lost key fob - not sure if that had any effect but it was around then I stopped getting updates. I...

    New 40.50 Software

    Which version are other people with MCU1 AP 2.5 on? I've been stuck on 32.12 for a few months now - not sure if it's worth it or necessary to maybe start a service request.

    V10 on MCU1

    I have a 2017 Model S (MCU 1 AP 2.5). I purchased EAP but did not purchase FSD. I got the software update last night and have all the features available for my specs (Enhanced Summon, Spotify, upgraded visualizations, etc...).

    Supercharger - Hartford, CT - Leibert Road

    When the superchargers in downtown Hartford opened up, I joked after CT continually voted down Tesla sales in the state, Tesla will surround the capital with chargers. It's starting to look like the truth now. o_O Expecting superchargers in Whethersfield/Newington next.

    Just ordered Model S P100D from new Inventory

    Congrats, welcome to the CT Tesla club. The P100D is an awesome car, although keep in mind you may not be hitting the 2.3 sec 0-60 acceleration times during the cold season. Tesla drivers have always given me a friendly wave in CT, due to how rare ownership is around here. Supercharging...

    Musk promises better Summon coming "next year"

    While I'd love for that to be the case, I think there is a distinct difference in connotation between by any specific hour, and by any specific day/month/year. If your mechanic said your truck would be ready "by tomorrow", would you expect it to be available 1 second after 23:59:59 today...

    Connecticut Gubernatorial Debate - Allow Tesla Direct Sales?

    Ugh I tried to time link it at 53:56 but it's not working accurately. But yeah, at 53:56 is where the question is asked, it's part of the rapid-fire portion so candidates aren't supposed to go into detail with responses.

    Connecticut Gubernatorial Debate - Allow Tesla Direct Sales?

    For those active in local CT politics, here's a clip from the recent debate between Ned Lamont (D), Bob Stefanowski (R), and independent Oz Griebel which took place recently at Uconn. Lamont was the only one in favor. Obviously there are likely more significant issues to sway your vote...

    Burned by Tesla on idle fees. Something to know

    Never said supercharging spots should be used for parking, just that drivers shouldn't expect to get idle fee notifications anymore. You should be thrilled at this update if you're for the discouragement of idling. Btw as I'm sure you know, simply showing up in time to unplug doesn't free up...

    Burned by Tesla on idle fees. Something to know

    Bump - The Tesla FAQ page on idle fees no longer state that an "additional notification will be will alert you when idle fees are incurred." There is no other way to know whether or not a station is 50% or 100% full from your phone. Looks like there is still a 5 minute grace period for...

    Extended Warranty Debate

    Tesla likely has a third party auto warranty insurer that handles the risk assessment part. As with all insurance, you'll have a pool of individuals, some high risk, some low risk. Add operating costs and a profit margin on top of the expected claims for the pool and the average warranty buyer...

    Supercharger - Old Lyme, CT

    Bit of a late reply but there are EV chargers at Foxwoods and Mohegan. In fact Mohegan has Tesla destination chargers so even the smallest battery model 3 should be safe from Milford and back.
