Tire Repair Kit A tire repair kit, saved my weekend trip !!!

Repaired Repaired means to restore something that is damaged, broken, or not working correctly, back into good condition to make it working again. Note: This remind me when I bought a replacement sun visor for my car at a dismantler shop, but the reference to the part number was written in...

Range indication is only an estimate, based on various parammeters, such as your previous driving consumption. Basically the battery stores the amount of energy added when charging and measures the amount of energy used, to determine how much energy is left, and converts it into a range value...

I think that you will be put back at the end of the list. You should keep your order, and transfer it to someone else instead, and make a second order. But if you already made a change, there might be 3,000 to 6,000 vehicle in the first ship. I imagine that after two months there much have been...

Maybe on a road trip where you will have a charger at your destination, otherwise you need to be able to return to your last charging location. So if you typically have 300 miles of range when at 100%, and you want to end your trip with 20%, so so have only 240 miles of range. If you cannot...

What kind of rear-view mirror do you have? Where did you installed the camera: - outside above the license plate or - inside behind the rear window? How is the rear view when it is rainning or at night?

Life can be boring out there... look at San Francisco last Saturday !!! /s

If you look at the Tesla web site, there is one shade covering the whole ceilling window https://shop.tesla.com/product/2017-_-2020-_-model-3-sunshades And another model of shade not covering the rear area, which is safer, so you can sill use your rear mirror...

Looking at some comments on various forums, something that could subject of interpretation is the wording of the 2023 NEC 210.8 (A) about GFCI protection for Dwelling Units: All 125-volt through 250-volt receptacles installed in the following locations should have ground-fault...

Is it because of the solar eclipse today?

Do you feel any difference of comfort, especially when passing above a pothole? Dou think this will better protect the rim against curb rash? Any noticeable effect on the energy consumption? How many miles did you drive on the previous set of tires? Did you rotated them regularly? What type of...

The 2023 M3 Performance was listed a 162 mph (260 km/h). I wonder what would be the Model 3 Ludicrous top speed at the Nürburgring ? From the above video, the IONIQ 5 N was 164 mph (264 km/h). And from this video Model S Plaid at Nürburgring Again, the Model S Plaid was 179.5 mph (289 km/h)

When doing a long trip, I put my two bicycles on top of each other, in the trunk of my Model 3, including a folding two-bike rack (Quik Rack Mach2). When I arrive a destination, then I install my bike rack and put the bikes on it. I just remove the front wheel and wrap each bicycle using an old...

What can be the origine of the dent?

But the circuit breaker and the plug are rated 30A, so the wires should be able to handle 30A, not just 24A.

So what platform will this futur "Robo-Taxi" will be using: - A Model Y without steering wheel and pedals? - A special new smaller platform with only two doors? - A larger minivan type of vehicle, derived from the Model X or the Cybertruck, that could be also used for the Boring tunnel n Las...

The tax should certainly be based on mileage and weight of the car. This is not a democratic law as small vehicles used only for short commute get taxed the same way as heavy users, such as UBER taxis or limousines, or truckcs used by building contractors.

https://insideevs.com/features/714686/new-jersey-annual-ev-fee/ Starting in July, New Jersey EV owners must pay an annual $250 road tax fee in an effort to offset the state's loss in fuel tax revenue. The new fee will increase by $10 each of the next four years until it reaches $290 in 2028...

If you want to design a plug to handle only 24 A, it is your problem, but it's a code violation. Maybe one day you will sale you home and someone will use the plug as a 30 A plug.

But I would not be surprised if Tesla plan to delay the Model 2 util they will be guaranty that they could sell at least 2 million of it or more a year. Currently, the demand for EV seems to not increase at the expected rate, and even hybrid get more popular. I think one of the reasons is that...

I use a dashcam instead, connected to the ODBC plug, so the car can go to sleep while I am using my dashcam, which drains much less battery than Sentry. Also with my dashcam (Blackvue DR 900X) I can select or suppress some video image areas, in case of a flashing light triggering the alarm. And...

Sometime, when I get a software update, I prefer to wait until I complete my trip and I am back at home. in case there would be a problem with the update and I could be stranded. I wonder then, for the FSD trail, if you will need to click and to agree to some kind of agreement before you can...

A dashboard cover prevents from sun reflection back to the windshield. Maybe you are not sensitive for it, but in my case when I rent a car, I always take a black towel to cover the whole dashboard of the car I am renting. In fact, many people complain about the new Model 3 dashboard with the...

Also the current charging situation can change very fast... I remember when I got my Model 3 about five years ago, there was no charging charging station in my area, but now there are several Tesla superchargers and tons of L2 public chargers, but I am in California... Also I have some...

Beautiful picture of the CT, but I hope Tesla ill deliver some nice wheel covers, the current wheels don't look great.

If this is your primary car, not like a second car used only for commuting, get the Long Range even if you do drive too much everyday, because on weekend you don't want to have to deal with charging when doing a local trip.

How many miles do you drive daily or weekly ? Because if you only need to charger once a week, like you might do with an ICE car, this is very different than if you had to charge every day, because you have a long commute. Also, if you plan to stay for a while at this location, can you have an...

Can you use any Tesla Supercharger? Because Tesla use the Credit Card from the owner account.

What Software version do you have? This should be documented in the release version notes. Check not a tesla app / software-updates By the way, could you look at the rear diffuser under the car to check if there is an opening for a tow hitch? Did the tow hitch option was available when...

You have also to consider the electrical changes. In paticular if the hatch stays open when driving, then the stop light and turn light get transfered to the bumper location.

I went to a L2 public charger which used to be free, but when I plugged to it, the cost was displayed on the screen. I immediatly disconnected and went to another location and I could not find any charge on my credit card. I will test again and take pictures of the screen in my car next time I...

So when there is a power outage you cannot get power from your solar system...

Yes, sure... like this?

I would recommend watching this video....

I would recommend also going to Point Reyes, CA for Whale Watching. https://www.nps.gov/pore/planyourvisit/wildlife_viewing_whales.htm

I wonder if you can select the day you want to start the free trial or if the trail will last for the first mont you own the vehicle like it was the case for some other free trial suscriptions?

Thak you FatherTo1 for this great trip review, hopping that the weather was nice too !!! Looking forward for new exciting trips along the west cost. Last summer I drove from Port Angeles, WA to Astoria, OR (here is a posting at the Olympic National Park)

Starting a new tread about Cybertruck in Movies or Videos. I noticed today in the Rollingstone magazine: Future, Metro Boomin, The Weeknd Star in a Cybertruck Fever Dream BY TOMÁS MIER "Young Metro" video YOUTUBE ELON MUSK PROBABLY has this music video on loop. On Monday, Future and Metro...

One issue will be that, while doing a long trip, you will plan to stop at a particular supercjharger because this location has available chargers, but because of non-Tesla vehicles blocking two chargers the supercharger might be full. Better in this case to select older 120 kW superchargers...

There are bluetooth receivers for wired headphones, so you could use one receiver and connect two wired headphones using a splitter to share the same receiver. 5.0 Bluetooth Audio Receiver Adapter,NFC Wireless Bluetooth Extender

... I have an other clickbait title for this Tik Tok 'expert': You can’t have a job and own this car. Finding fuel for it becomes your job.

Interesting white label warning in the middle of the rear window: "Engineering Vehicle" (or something like that) ? See: firehouse.com/rescue Extrication Tactics For "Energized" Vehicles SUBJECT: Electrical System Shutdown TOPIC: Extrication Tactics for "Energized" Vehicles OBJECTIVE...

I think that putting the D and R control away was decided to avaoid pressing it accidently when driving. Honestly, you only need it when you manoeuver to park, or to make a K-turn. I try to remember, but I think reading that the car could be able to decide in which direction you will go...

I totaly agree, I installed a dashboard mat cover (Amazon Search) in my current Model 3 and I'm sure there will be some available for the new Model 3. It seems that the updated Made in China Model Y gets also an LED strip but located in a lower location, I think I would had prefered to get...

Can you take a picture of the 'fuse box on the driver side next to the go pedal' ?

Also a front camera seems to be needed to prevent accidents, especially with kids passing in front of a tall vehicle. ‘Terrible accident:’ Uber driver runs over, kills one-year-old girl, family beats driver up...

It would be interesting to see what will be the layout of the stalls, if the trench work already started. On the west side, there are currently five slots, then a little peninsula with a tree, and then another six slots. I wonder if the area in the left with five slots would be converted into a...

The estimator would spend 20 minutes to look at the whole project and there would be just one line on the estimate, like '200 ft conduit at $35/ft.' Then it will be the job of the Foreman to run the construction project, trying to make it as low cost as possible... Note: I recently had a very...
