Separate names with a comma.
30^2 = 900 days. I'm looking forward to, "But officer, the car was driving itself into the tree." But mostly, I want to see what the insurance...
The chargers are pretty essential parts. I'm surprised that Tesla couldn't have a stock available at the time you made your appointment, and swap...
I've made many trips from Houston to Chicago. I don't think I've ever had to use Memphis. Mostly I travel from Little Rock SuC and get a 50-60...
This isn't the first time Tesla has removed functionality without including a suitable post-install briefing to explain the lost feature. This...
First, Welcome to Tesla! Second, Woe be to all who enter here. Third... Yeah, so you can see that service centers are a little 'hit or miss'....
It works out to around $0.16 k/Wh -- par for the course if you are charging at home. Superchargers, in Texas will be more expensive, AFAIK. The...
Most of the brown 'Restricted Locations', are apartments within ~5 miles of Bellaire (lower left corner). This image comes via Plugshare.com --...
Normally, when talking about wind energy installations, the GW is expressed in nameplate capacity. In other words, when the wind is blowing at...
I drove my S70D to 0%, and it shut down as I did full regeneration on the off-ramp (approximately 50 MPH). What I did to recover: I coasted, from...
Yeah, that is the exact route, via Uni of Arkansas, that I took that my car shut-down at exactly 0 miles in the battery. We really need this site.
I'm offering that since the software writing process, at Tesla, is opaque, and the manual writing process is considerably more transparent -- that...
To illustrate my last remark: In every contract that Van Halen signed when Roth was lead singer, they had a clause that said they needed "X"...
I'm waiting for Tesla to correctly write their manual as a signal that they have the institutional rigor to write safe software.
on my 2015 S70D - had 1 handle replacement in 52K miles. Also, garaged at night. Only spent 6 months in snowy weather.
I think they are just getting ready to make it the same color as what you are wearing. Think about it: Car has a camera that points inwards;...
I'm sure you are correct. Both the Model S and Model X manuals have incorrect explanations of ways to invoke the voice recognition feature. This...
While traveling in the opposite side of Missouri (SE Miner), I came to what _could_ be a creepy site. I plugged in, behind a restaurant that had...
I've been to Joplin. Grass is growing in the cracks in the pavement. I vaguely recall seeing chain-link fence across part of the derelict hotel....
Good luck. I've been asking that the S/X manual correctly explain how the voice commands work for a year. I'm not holding my breath for Tesla to...
In December, 2020, when I passed through, the Ruby Tuesday sign had been taken down, and replaced with a Tex Mex styled sign -- so new menu, new...
Map is out-of-date, per Supercharge.info data on Tesla. Two more V3 200+ kW sites are in the 4-state TX, OK, AR, LA area, for a total of 4 Tesla...
I heard that Elon plans to release the new SW just as soon as he gets the manuals to correctly describe how the old SW works. There might be one...
If you want to draw your electrons predominantly from the Texas wind turbines, set scheduled charging for 3AM each morning. Winds blow strongest...
Installed wind capacity for Texas, this year, is as follows. Most of these numbers come from ERCOT, itself. Numbers for November and December...
Forecasted lows for wholesale Texas electricity generation is below 1.5¢/kWh tonight. When you add the transmission costs of 3.9¢, it works out to...
So, I'm having difficulty setting the soc_limit to anything other than 50% or 80%. When I run a command, like the following, in a bash session, I...
https://owner-api.teslamotors.com/api/1/vehicles is now back up and running from AWS, as of this morning (wasn't last night).
Image below is my data from 2020 on an S70D with 50K miles. If you tried the Huntsville Supercharger -- that one is operating poorly, as...
I run the battery down that low (3%) about 6 days a year, roughly 4 times each day, for the last 3 years, for a total of 72 times during 50,000...
But on a more serious note, if you 'jumped' it within 24 hours of the car going 'dead', you might just have to wait a bit for the current to start...
Your last name wouldn't happen to be Broder would it?
Tesla really needs to acquire a company capable of bolstering its voice recognition. Tesla recognizes speech at about 1/4 the rate of Apple's...
15 mi x 365 x 1.05 x 1.20 x 0.09 $/kW x .234 kW/mi ===== 15*365*1.05*1.20*.09 * .234 = $145 Missed that last conversion.
30 mi round-trip daily. Even with low speeds, the AC might burn 105% of the battery as you cross those 30 miles. Assume charging losses of around...
I wish that Tesla could write their manuals to accurately describe the behavior of their cars. It is surprising how their manual writers don't...
Totally. 3% is my target. That is the advantage of being 'flatlanders', here in S. Texas.
The Tesla manuals for the S and X have been out-of-sync with the correct operation of voice commands for at least 6 months. Count on doing some...
Anybody know if the doctors are using antibodies in convalescent plasma to any positive effect? I might consider a drive up to Dallas or Austin...
I hear they removed more bugs than they added this time.
Three words: "Electrify the cars"
A contrasting view (to mine & S70D) -- more applicable to the Model 3's: [MEDIA]
[ATTACH] I've intermittently charged two Teslas (per figure) for a year. This is a snapshot of each night for the last 6 weeks (and by night,...
@ucmndd Why do you think 30% is the 'magic number'?
Time for a warranty battery replacement? 7.7% degradation out of the gate is pretty serious.
I see Texas Saver 24 - Pulse Power available in the NE Houston area for 24 months, based on the assumption that monthly consumption is 1,000 kWh....
Low rates are possible with Griddy.com . You have to be able to cope with fast moving prices ... which tend to resemble the stock market in many...
I've figured out an OK way to do this for the latest Model X Owner's Manual (probably works OK for the S, 3, Y manuals too): 1. Open PDF 2. Select...
Model 3 is chiefly made from steel. The 3 and the Y share 80% or so of the same parts. I had two 2015 Model S's parked next to each other. The...
Maybe rename the car Hal 9000? It really seems like you might be jeopardizing the mission.
Does anyone know how to get a version of the Model S and Model X manuals that show how they have been updated from year 2019 to year 2020? The...
