Yeah, the fact they have allowed other automotive journalists to test it would suggest the problem is with this particular 'influencer'? Dunno if he has a 'track' record so to speak or what, don't really care, sounds like another storm in a teacup to me.

haha, nice!

Sriracha putting the 3 in SEXY for the AEVA World EV Day today

That is so awesome, congratulations! (The Model 3 especially looks AWESOME can't put my finger on why :p )

Yeah, either way I would do whatever works best for you. I feel that people get too worried about the 'charge to 100%' for RWD owners and 'Don't charge to over 80%' for the LR. If a 90% charge once a week (or even 100%) worked best for you I don't believe it would have any appreciable impact on...

More so for the LFP battery in the RWD model, for your LR, the recommendation is just to charge it to 80% for general use, charge to 100% for a long trip. The LFP battery calibrates at 100% because the voltage curve doesn't allow the system to know the true charge level through the range like...

Yes, it can, it'll give you an estimate to start with, which is usually conservative. The actual charging speed can depend on a whole range of things, temperature, number of cars charging at the same time, how much power is available at the site, which stall you parked at (particularly for V2)...

Last I heard on this is that they will provide a fix for Atto (at a cost to the owner) once they've finished fixing the Seals.

Yeah, that's how I do it as well

correct, you need to order it yourself

Mine was 100% but sometimes they don't get time. I'm sure it'll be plenty though.

Congrats! But why are you holding it with your hands? You'll need to change your callsign if you keep that up :)

Definitely not worth it at 8c but I'm averaging 69.4c/kWh FIT at the moment, so definitely could be an interesting idea.

Congrats!

So it is 6 stall?

Congrats @Gridfire and welcome to the zoo!

They must not have been able to see it 😆

CT sighting in ADL

That's awesome news! Do they need to touch up the ceramic coating? I'd definitely be looking to get $50-100 out of the centre though even if it's just for all your messing around having to get it sorted.

Back on software updates, interesting to see that version 2024.32 seems to be getting ready to go out so soon after we got .26 No idea what the new features are.

Yeah, agree, always amazing seeing how blatantly they have tried to copy Tesla (even the initial website was an almost direct copy). XPeng was the company that had the ex-Tesla employee who got sued from memory for stealing a whole bunch of trade secrets and bringing them across. You'd think...

Absolutely I did some work with a major fuel brand many years ago, @Quickst is spot on. It's all about those overpriced chocolate bars etc that they try to get you to buy every time you pay for gas. That's why they quickly got rid of most of those pay at terminal trials, was a massive...

Get a quote from a good paint repair place and have the centre pay for it.

Yep, there's not much you can do other than use the estimated date as exactly that, an estimate. It's a rough guide and usually works out ok. They don't know any different here until the cars are on the way.

Not at all, I think you make a very valid point. One suggestion, are you a part of TOCA? I know they have some reasonably good comms lines to senior management in Tesla Australia. Maybe they could do a petition or something to get some sway?

Important to remember when making generalised statements on either side of the debate When it comes to paint and build quality, there are vast differences between earlier build and late build vehicles as well as factory of origin.

Congrats and welcome to the Ultra Red Revolution!

Yeah, I think you can't go wrong with any of the colours.

The updates must be having trouble finding the stealth cars, I just got 26.7

Correct choice! Another member of the #Red-Revolution!

Yeah, I wasn't able to get any confirmation on that, but that's the sort of thing I suspect may happen. My source was very tight lipped on anything other than SA, WA and QLD, but I got the impression that there was more.

Yeah, I definitely had confirmation it's doing SA, WA and QLD, I think it was in that order (I gave the order in a video a month or so ago, but can't remember what it was lol) There was some suggestion it might do some other landmarks in WA and NT but I didn't have confirmation on that.

It's still heading to SA, WA and QLD potentially other locations but those are the ones I've had confirmed after TAS.

Truer words have never been spoken! lol

Yes it does

Yeah, obviously not too much detail available and for sure a properly delivered and weaponeered purpose designed weapon would always do a better job. I'm assuming this was inside Russia though, so aerial delivery was likely not an option. Just thought it was amusing and a credit to their...

So looks like someone finally found a practical use case for Toyota Mirai/Hydrogen fuel cells. Reports coming through that Ukraine managed to use a Toyota Mirai by detonating the fuel cell and taking out a Russian building full of military equipment... Imagine the carnage and subsequent bans...

Out of interest did you get 26.3.1 or 26.6?

Your Mileage May Vary. Regarding missing the blue flashing because you are looking at the road, one of the real advantages of AP is that it allows you to free up concentration from keeping such a close eye on lane control and speed to being 'outside of the cockpit' which gives you much better...

It takes a LOT to get a warning. I've done several very long drives 2-4,000 km mostly on AP and I've never had a single strike, you have to ignore the flashing blue which increases in intensity for some time before you get a desengagement and it's just for that one drive, but as above if you...

26.6 seems to be ramping up now.

They've only gone out to relatively small numbers so far, 26.3.1 went out to ~15% then seemed to be paused, 26.6 started going out, but only to a very small number and now it appears both are slowly rolling out in parallel. There's also a 26.5 and 26.10 but they won't be coming to AU vehicles...

Don Two?

And miss out on all the ship tracking? watching RORO documentaries, speculating and refreshing apps non-stop for months? Miss out on Tether-gate, bug-ship, paying out on those less fortunate who ordered stealth gray? What is wrong with these people!

I believe it is active in the LR version.

Yeah, it's all anecdotal, however based on what I hear and see around the place, the percentage of orders for QS do seem to be higher than other colours and the deliveries seem to be lower. Not sure if that's something to do with the ramp up to a new colour for this factory (no idea if that's a...

Congrats! especially on picking the correct colour :cool:

I'm sure they wouldn't advise to do them often.
