    How much do you weight?

    Sounds good to me. Diet over. It was a tough few hours.

    How much do you weight?

    I am glad this is out in the open now. I was 219 this morning. I am going to eat a salad for lunch so I do not risk damaging my 220 pound rated Tesla seat on the way home. And by the way I am actually on a diet now (for past week) and I am not stopping until I am at 205. When I hit 209, I am...

    I'm thinking of donating my referral HPWC to my local volunteer fire company...

    I applied for the Tesla Charging Partner through the website form. I wrote up a modified script as suggested above. I left out the donation stuff and talked more about serving our community and the common goal, etc. Thanks for that suggestion. Question is, how long will it take for a...

    I'm thinking of donating my referral HPWC to my local volunteer fire company...

    I was just checking out these non Tesla chargers based on the above reply. Which Clipper Creek J1772 model would you suggest? I don't really know anything about other types of chargers other than the Tesla hpwc. Does this get wired into a separate breaker (I guess it would need to be a...

    I'm thinking of donating my referral HPWC to my local volunteer fire company...

    You are correct I forgot about the additional disconnect. The actual wire run is about 30 ft. I already spoke to our captain today and we are going to look at the project more closely this week. He is fully in support.

    I'm thinking of donating my referral HPWC to my local volunteer fire company...

    Hi all, I am a firefighter / EMT and member of our local volunteer fire company. Our first due area is fairly rural - we are out in the country a bit, but not more than 20 minutes away from a Tesla store with public HPWCs. One of my close friends and brother EMT at the station purchased a...

    Why is Tesla failing to deliver referral awards?

    Great Article

    I am posting this here because the X forum is my home. If you are contemplating the purchase of a Tesla, placed your order, or you own one now, you'll probably love this read: Tesla shareholders who sell if EV maker goes private will be losers for one big reason: A.I.  Happy Friday everyone!

    It's August! So.......

    Not sure if ya'll saw the tweet yesterday from Musk, but he confirmed that the Hardware 3.0 chip set upgrade will be free to existing owners that ordered FSD (not sure about EAP as well, and do not want to spread fake news without confirmation, but I know it applied to FSD).

    Forward Collision Alert saved my *** this weekend

    This is true ^^^. However, I did not have it on because I was not really thinking about it. I had turned off both TACC and AP for some reason that I do not recall prior to that particular moment and I was simply driving the old fashion manual way (if you can believe that!).

    Forward Collision Alert saved my *** this weekend

    Fellow enthusiasts.... we often come to these forums and discuss the features we don't have yet. This post makes me appreciate a feature we do have. What I am about to tell you is an accident averted because forward collision alert actually worked and saved what would have been my own driver...

    Atari Games in V9.0!

    Playing other cars around you while supercharging would be wicked cool. You could send invites that pop up on the other cars displays. It's definitely possible because Tesla knows when you are charging.

    My X is named Clarence Clemons. Now I ask you. What would the Big Man have said if he was with us today? That's what I thought.:D

    It's August! So.......

    I got your answer my friend: I ordered FSD 2 weeks ago after contacting Tesla elevated support to ask this very question. I was told that Tesla will honor the $4K price for existing owners like us, however, they do not know when the system would be fixed to reflect the new price. HOWEVER, I...

    Can you take a X to a regular car wash?

    Then of course you could go the complete other direction of car washes. I use the traditional 2 bucket method for light washes or the foam cannon for washes with dirt or salt that must be pre-softened. I also use a power washer / CR Spotless De-ionized water filtration system to prevent water...

    Firmware 9.0 Features Wishlist!

    You guys are funny with this pipe dream wish list. But why not: 1. Ability to see what the AP cameras see in the eyes of the computer in real time by having a configurable display grid on the MCU. 2. Ability to have 2 Bluetooth devices connected simultaneously - one for phone and one for...

    Supercharger Front End Infrastructure

    What is the thing on the top of the Supercharger infrastructure in this pic with the massive conduit that runs up to it. Just curious. Took this pic while charging today and was checking out the high voltage equipment.

    HVAC is one of my favorite features on this car

    Say what you want about the air conditioner loud turbine engine sounds or any other ancillary dissatisfaction but the ability to turn on the heat or AC from the app is amazing. If you are in the hot weather and have not been using "keep climate control active" while you park, or using the app...

    2018.26 3bbd9fd .-

    I just got this update before Teslafi notified me. This is a first. Updating now. I don't even care what it has I am just happy to be among the first. They can make the turn signal blink faster and I'd be happy.

    Software Update 2018.24.1 12dd099

    I don't get nags at all because I actually keep my hands on the wheel because it's less annoying that way. I use this feature as a co-pilot. Seriously. An "extra set of tools" but I am not giving up the pilot seat.

    The option to purchase FSD disappeared in MyTesla

    Lol.... My prior ICE car would blink the blinker 3 times and turn it off if you only partially engage the stalk. I'm so conditioned to it that I have the opposite behavior to what you describe. I have to remember TO engage the stalk more often then not.

    The option to purchase FSD disappeared in MyTesla

    I can confirm that existing owners without FSD can get FSD for $4,000. I submitted an elevated request email to Tesla support and obtained independent confirmation. They are working to fix the issue but if you buy it for $5k you will get a refund of $1k within a few weeks. I'll wait till...

    The option to purchase FSD disappeared in MyTesla

    Wow.... checked this thread again and saw the article reference. I feel better now that apparently this is a mistake for existing owners. I'll really feel better when my Tesla manage site reports $4k again. This is how it should be.

    The option to purchase FSD disappeared in MyTesla

    This is the first Tesla issue that annoys me - and I am a huge fanboy. Maybe I am lucky in that regard. However, when I purchased without FSD, I did so going into the deal knowing it would cost me $1,000 additional if I "opted in" one day... so... $4,000. I have no problem with Tesla wanting...

    The option to purchase FSD disappeared in MyTesla

    I have old MCU 2017 build and I still have the option to buy as well. (AP 2.5). Here is my speculation. The FSD you thought you bought (or will buy) will not be 'true' FSD. Its not going to be door to door service no hands no nag. There will be feature split. Stuff that may or arguably...

    How often are you charging?

    was 80 percent for daily now 70 percent for daily. Range is amazing. In fact I started leaving my AC on when parked for a few hours to keep interior climate controlled to 69 degrees. My dash cam like that when parked in summer daylight. It never overheats. Why do I do this? Because we can.

    Recommendation for seat belt plug?

    EMT here. Just ran a call on our Beltway last week and our patients' car (not a Tesla) hit from behind at 45 MPH then hit car in front. All airbags deployed. Moms injuries consistent with seatbelt abdomen and airbag chest pain but otherwise ok. 20 month and 3 year old in rear car seats that...

    Wimpy horn

    Ok. Couldn't resist the joke but I'll be serious now. On my 911 my horn was actually 2 horns of different tones that made the final sound. One of the horns went defective leaving a single tone horn that sounded , well, just wrong and definitely deficient. The horn was replaced and all was...

    Wimpy horn

    Clearly you are mistaken because it has been firmly established that the Tesla has an aggressive beep. ok all. This is supposed to be a YouTube link for Curb Your Enthusiasm and the Tesla horn episode. If you are not seeing it, it's the forum acting up again with link translation issues.

    X100D. I had a faulty body control module, then a sensor issue that prevented updates from installing. Then the 12 v battery needed to be replaced. All over a span of 6 months. However, in each instance, supposedly it was a known issue and the replacement part was upgraded. So u may have...
