    Range differences with Pilot Sport All Season 4 or CrossClimate2 vs Primacy MXM4

    After 13 months on the Michelin PS4 tires, and about 17k miles, I will say these tires are stickier & slightly more responsive than my MXM4 OEM tires. Road noise level is still high and looking at my Tesla trip screen info, I averaged 249kWh on my old tires and 254 kWh on the Pilot Sport 4s...

    Electrical Engineer / Contractor Question: Garage Level 2 Charging cord set-up Question

    Thank you Tam. Yes, 30A is the dedicated fuse in the fuse box; the odd 10-50 plug was what was "installed" on the Sears dryer and the wall output before I bought my home 30 years ago. I haven't touched the electrical wiring at all. Outside of changing light bulbs to LED and attaching some...

    Electrical Engineer / Contractor Question: Garage Level 2 Charging cord set-up Question

    In my garage, I have a 220V electric dryer that I want to share the output with my Tesla Mobile Charger for level 2 charging. I just ordered and intend to plug in an UL Listed NeoCharge splitter (NeoCharge Smart Splitter) to my garage dryer 10-50 outlet. My fuse box and dryer is set up with a...

    Long term airport parking

    If you’re parking at a long-term lot, then I would say it’s okay (otherwise the engineers and planners would not have put those charging parking spots in there). I work at an airport (SFO) that supports a very limited number of free chargers in the short-term parking lot and it’s not cool when...

    Report: Tesla, Hertz Negotiating Timeline of Massive Model 3 Order

    I think this is what Elon originally said he wanted to do (remember that roll-out of the Model 3 back in 2016?)- to make the Model 3 (Y?) more "common" and affordable. It was never touted as a true luxury car, even though the vehicle was put in the same class. So, if things go "right," and...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Range update 11/8/21. Eight months ago, I posted "range" display of my 2018 Model 3 LR (262 miles range at 90% and 290 miles at 100% SOC). Now, at 58000 miles and 3 years of driving around / commuting around the Bay Area, mostly level 2 charging to 90% and once a month charging to 100% and...

    Model 3 LR DM performance & range increase?

    Two and a half years and 40k miles later, my LR DM 3's "maximum" range is approximately 290 (at 100% SOC) and 262 miles at "full Daily, edge of Trip" (90%) mark.

    Range differences with Pilot Sport All Season 4 or CrossClimate2 vs Primacy MXM4

    I replaced the MXM4 with the Pilot Sport AS4 and the "range" efficiency has been negligible, perhaps maybe about a 2-3 mile range increase. Of course, I changed tires in November 2020 and with the milder cool Bay Area winter weather, my range diminishes until mid-spring time when the warmer...

    2021.4.11 - what is with the loud banging sounds

    2021.4.11 update completed (approx 35 minutes). Lots of clunks, thumps, clicks, winding noises. I understand aside from "minor bug fixes," the only real "noticeable" update might be the brake regen under colder conditions. 2 1/2 years and 40k miles later, I'm still loving this ride! Only...

    Windshield wipers are horrible, and arguably dangerous

    That makes sense. Thank you for the insight education

    Video of My Model 3 Getting Broken into. Glass options?

    My bad. I agree and I apologize. I’ll focus on the subjects at hand. Thank you

    Windshield wipers are horrible, and arguably dangerous

    Since rain and ambient conditions are dynamic, and each Tesla driver has their personal preference to “when” they want their auto-sensors to wipe, this feature would be so effective if each time a driver presses the stalk button during auto-mode during a light or moderate shower condition, the...

    Politics - Quarantine Thread

    Hmm, by that you mean kinda like a “vacation consignment plan / offer?”
