Separate names with a comma.
Yes it’s brutal. I was planning to get a new S this year. Can sell my car in the meantime, but don’t really want to drive an ICE anymore. Will...
I’ve already taken advantage if the offer. Going next month. Can’t wait!
I seem to remember there was a period when new S/X didn’t come with free charging, but trading owners could get it on the new car. Perhaps my...
It’s fine to charge to 100% occasionally. And don’t forget, you’ll be driving from the supercharger to the ferry, so you’ll use a few percent...
So if I trade my 2016 Model S for a 2022 Model S I will keep free supercharging?
I’m planning the same trip in the April school holidays. I wouldn’t bother stopping at house of Anvers chocolate shop just for charging, although...
I have received two separate emails from Tesla about reimbursement,. The first email said that I would be notified by the end of February about...
I think that is 3.5" spinning disk hard drives, for surveillance systems. External SSD or USB stick is probably better for cars. Mind you, I feel...
Fantastic news. I wasn't sure if the dual screen upgrade was just for AP2+ cars. I'll book my upgrade.
Very true, but it is blazing fast and very reliable. I'd trust it more than a microSD card, which can get very hot and is made more for size than...
+1 for the Samsung T1. Very fast and you can get it <$100 for the 500GB version.
Very interesting. I had heard reports of strange error messages after the battery was completely disconnected. Glad to hear there was nothing...
Is your car AP1 or AP2?
Or maybe only saps think that someone who talks to a ‘journalist’ unironically falls into the sap category regardless of the story. Or maybe only...
Kind of hard to know because it’s hard to know what the percentage will be, even though it is of such a large number of people. The last time I...
Is India going to be that big a market for such an expensive vehicle?
I thought the car turned its Wi-Fi off whenever it was in drive. That would make using your mobile hotspot impossible.
Sap is a bit strong don’t you think? The interview seemed fairly positive and had some normal sort of information about his car. The fact that it...
I’m pretty sure you don’t get sentry mode by upgrading to MCU2. I think you need HW2+ (the 8 cameras version).
Get a 3. Guaranteed the wheel won't obscure the instrument cluster.
Great result, thanks for keeping us updated. Very good that Tesla did the right thing so promptly.
This says in all, really, when judging the character of the people you're dealing with. You should take them to court over this.
Tyre shops are notoriously dishonest. I'm sure there are plenty of honest ones, but they are the exception rather than the rule. The laws in NZ...
A bit like how Iceland has the most Nobel Prize winners per capita of any country. They have 1.
Hope you get a good resolution soon, and can start enjoying the system. I'm planning to get a similar system soon, so will be interested in how...
It doesn't render the car undriveable. The main instrument cluster still works, with blinkers and gear changes, charge level and status etc. I had...
I've been there, it does seem temporary. Quite a small site, too. I kind of miss the luxury of the St Leonards store, sitting in air conditioning...
It's via cellular connection, but in Australia also requires the keyfob to be close to the vehicle. Also, turn your damn phone on! Other people...
Having done a 3 week motorcycle tour of northern India I can vouch for this.
I'm in the same boat, had my faulty MCU replaced out of warranty, after much haggling they replaced for 50% cost. Car was 3 years old at the time,...
My S is 4.5 years old, drives better than when I bought it. Can't think of a reason to change, but that doesn't stop me constantly watching car...
Correct response: “You’ll care when I key the sh*t out of it, so move the f*ck’n thing before I drop you. “ I grew up around there and speak...
That’s true. In fact, even without programming bias in, the AI can develop its own biases for the same reasons we do. Some examples: this US DoJ...
Actually half the population has an IQ of 100 or less, by definition. The median intelligence is 100. As for politics, humans should get out of...
That’s about all you have to do, a quick REVS check and perhaps get a mechanic to have a quick look if you’ve any doubts. I quite enjoy buying...
I recently did a road trip pulling a caravan with an ICE, and stopped for fuel and food at Taree services. There happens to be Evee CCS2 350kW...
Why would they care if the MCU1 is still under warranty?
When I bought my Model S in 2016 there were 4 destination chargers in Tasmania. This had increased to about 10 when I did a road trip of the state...
To be fair, a more succinct way to say that is: “poor planning”.
My mother-in-law recently sold her two-year old car with 1500km on the clock. I drove her to the buyer, and on the way she pointed out the service...
Let’s switch to LHD in Australia. Will make it easier for me to tap away at the MCU if I can use my dominant hand :-)
I can’t help but feel that all these “plans” are basically the natural progression of the technology. Hardly very ambitious.
This is just poor planning, nothing else. They don’t have the business skills to coordinate the grid supplier with potential sites. They’ve...
You should check comminsure. I was quoted about $1750 with a similar agreed value. Obviously there are other variables, but worth checking.
I just renewed with CommInsure as I couldn’t find anything better than their renewal offer.
Lol, this is a problem I wish we had here in Australia! There’s never any doubt which Superchargers use when doing an Australian road trip, they...
There is too much focus on mortality regarding this virus, when actually morbidity is the more worrying outcome. There are a huge amount of...
Nice. I just had my Model S upgraded to allow CCS2 charging. Looking forward to taking advantage of this on my next post-covid road trip.
My plan is not TOU but rather I have a normal and an off peak meter. The off peak meter runs from about 11:30pm to 7am and can only have...
Can you charge the power wall on an off-peak circuit? My house has so much tree shade it will be a battle to get solar, but I really want a...
