That is a release of LEO satellites by SpaceX for Starlink internet service. We had something almost identical in North Texas the week of April 5, 2021.

I've had 2 issues with them since 2016, neither having to do with water. One, the key fob in my pocket when I'm putting things in or taking out of the trunk results in me accidentally pushing the button and opening one - hands free. Two, one time in a parking garage with a honeycomb type roof -...

Defense.

I understand this will mean that batteries will not be replaceable. They will be part of the structure of the car, making the car's handling and efficiency even better than now. This is possible because of the new battery technology that doesn't use connectors between cells, instead allowing...

That's one way, but, in my X, the car has decided to jump from neutral to park when I've tried it. To avoid that problem, I recommend tow mode. Go to Controls, Service, tow mode, and make sure your wipers are off. The will allow the car to roll freely and it will not jump back into park...

Many good suggestions to go with the criticisms that are pointless imo - you've bought the car you've bought. Here is one more that may help extend the range some - drive in Chill mode, yes slower acceleration, but, better range. Between that and going with 19 inch wheels, the single charge...

Incorrect. Under 23 CFR § 658.17, an 18 wheeler's max weight is 80,000 pounds

But are these individual components you've found on the web the same tech used in the original post vehicle? I'd like to see the sales price of a Waymo vehicle, not a few parts here and there to start to be able to compare. The only estimates I've seen say that Waymo cars are vastly more...

That 4th picture really shows the family resemblance to the X! It looks better in the wild than it did on stage introduction, imo.

If this is how you feel about Musk and Tesla, why on earth would you own one of his vehicles? Are you dumb or something? You run around saying he a shyster, shady, liar and can't be trusted, but you buy his products. WTF? Something else is going on here. Sell your car and move on. Your...

On line forums are a very tiny percentage of the whole and they are the most vocal and most outspoken. While Tesla service experiences are far from perfect, my experiences have been that they are pretty much on par with other car companies...with our local Lexus being the outlier. They provide...

I think you need to do some more exploring with version 9 as its functionality is better than before imo, in the sense that there are more options, they just start at a different baseline. For example, if you press and hold the fan button, it turns the A.C./heat unit off, so in that sense, it...

So are you saying the car is following this map to navigate not just general direction but also where in the lanes to drive, how to avoid barricades, etc? If so, that is really not even similar to autonomous driving. Around here, highways change virtually daily with new lane striping...

Thanks for the post. The bottom line of where AP is now is, you are fully in charge of your car at all times. Tesla should probably be more explicit about this reality (not sure how), but, for anyone who hasn't read a million posts about this by now - you are the driver, period. True self...

I've had one half shaft replaced and that worked. However, before long, it started doing it again. I think it is coming from the other one? IDK. But, the odd thing about it, after the car warms up and has been driven for 30 minutes or so, I can't seem to reproduce it. The problem is the...
