Ah. Thx. I'll play with it today. Elon would prefer you list his cars NOT in chronological order, use S/3/X/Y

Excellent, this useless post gives me the opportunity to play with the Ignore feature on this new board software. Can you tell from your end, @NF, when people have chosen to block your posts?

Best maybe, but not popular enough to make the cut. I was always disappointed in silver after seeing the production prototype that had the really amazing silver paint job.

Back to Fresno to get the second shot? I thought the whole reason to drive so far to get the first one was so that you were eligible to get the second one near by. I had a friend took the train to her sister's in Alabama JUST so she was eligible here for the second shot (she is an educator who...

Sure enough, it got trashed when I was clearing my Junkmail. Thanks for the assist.

Except that the way they showed was to press on the T logo at the top of the screen but there isn't one anymore...

P123GO isn't a custom plate? How did you get it in a custom color then?

Maps says the only city named Petaluma is in California.

Frustrating. You must be having such a hard time dealing with it. So sorry.

Has anyone tried this on another car? TM3 or TMY?

Yip, I agree, I posted that thought before on another thread. My 150 gallon tank on my two story RV has fillers on both sides and I actually used them once at a Chevron truck stop. Really speeds up the time it takes to fill your vehicle. Only problem is MOST Superchargers in the country are so...

I thought I made my reservation there last week, but she said she would email my confirmation and I haven't seen a thing

I don't charge exclusively at DCFC, but I may do the majority there. I have a friend who got his same TM3 LR RWD the same day as I did, he charges almost exclusively at home. When he charged to 100% recently on his 3 year old car he got 311 miles (the same as the day they were new). I did a...

There is at least one of us that has already visited 1000 sites in the US, happened yesterday: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/superchargers-visited.28193/

There's a CAR ferry to Puerto Rico? That would totally be worth it now that there are two Superchargers there.

I just purchased a Solo Stove Bonfire. I'll be sure to bring it, unless the campsites already have fire rings. Hope they have firewood. Don't need spiders in the car.

But what does Q think?

+1. My 20 y/o (last month) Honda Insight has chips all over the front of it's beautiful metallic green paint job. Fortunately the whole car is made of aluminum so I don't have to worry about corrosion. Wish that was true of my 15 y/o Dodge Sprinter RV. I understand why modern cars all come with...

The reason to make two stops is doing it in one stop means charging for 1/2 an hour, while doing it in two you charge for 5 minutes each. The bottom half of the battery charges VERY quick. And most of the I-5 chargers are right off the freeway. I use Santa Nella and Button Willow as those were...

Odd, I guess I just don't know how to use the app. I have only seen people on a few times, it may have always been Big Earl

Looks like you inspired Electrek: The best (and worst) US states for EV charging - Electrek

This might be more fun if people were able to watch on Glympse!

Has the cost of hardware and installation and management and taxes gone up? Almost double in 3 years? I remember they mentioned that they were gonna start charging for the charging loss, so instead of paying for the power absorbed into the car (the number you see on the dash) they would start...

Hey has anyone noticed the price to Supercharge has reached 40¢/kWh in California? Yikes! I remember when I got my car is was 11¢/kWh to charge up in Washington. Why so much? There are gas cars that can easily beat my most efficient BEV in cost from point A to point B, including my trusty old...

I remember something about them in Electrek or some such, it was a full MegaPak on one truck and a full flatbed of chargers on the other. They drive to locations predicted to be the most in need of charge (Thanksgiving and other events) and provide charging w/o having to have a permit to build...

That is surprising that Roseville is cheaper, I notice that Marin City, Cupertino, and Menlo Park are all 20¢/kWh. Not sure but perhaps they are just a glitch in that new major Metro area pricing that just came out this week (20¢ or 40¢ from 10am-7pm), but 22¢ is just weird. I'll have to check...

This was a great year to collect unemployment. My neighbor retired and got bored so he got a job at a local restaurant JUST at the right time to collect unemployment with his wife and daughter for a year. This was the wrong year to be freshly retired.

I am interested. I'll PM ya

Agreed. I didn't like the circular gauges when I first saw them. Kinda hopped for a clone of the Android app as I was used to that look, but this idea of putting a single temp or volt range on the display and populating it with all the readings is inspired.

When I was there yesterday to charge there was a guy still painting "EV CHARGING ONLY" on the spaces. Also the mall looked desolate compared to the last time I was there. Just one restaurant with customers. Sure hope they get some of the federal recovery money, that was a very cool mall.

Ooo! Tied for first on that one too.

That's me, down at #27 in the pack, but still TECHNICALLY vying for the 1000 supercharger position, may need to leave the West Coast Well, as usual, I am twinsies with Bruce, though we didn't run into each other on the trek. And I got home, took a shower and got into my PJs and then noticed...

Wow! It was PACKED when I was there yesterday, I figured everyone was going for a FIRST in the Supercharger Hunt. Sorry I missed you... I was there around 4 pm

Glad I checked before I left, sheesh! Now I know how those in Northern California feel about me. Guess I'll pick them up some other day. Back to finally binging Season 2 of Star Trek: Discovery already in progress

Looks like Northgate, WA just opened, if I left now I could still get THAT as a first...

Looks like that Bellevue Supercharger that I visited many times when I was up there many months ago finally opened, according to Supercharge.info. I was so sure it would open while I was there. If I leave now I wonder if I could still get it as a first... Also Yakama is showing as open.

Kiss the zucchini, nice. More of an eye-roll kind of guy myself

Good reminder, yeah, and even then it's not as effective as the two others. I did put that date in my calendar for when I can start wearing the "Fully Vaccinated" mask. My sister-in-law was down for a week after she got the second shot. Happy to only need one.

I ended up getting these, they are good clones for the Tesla ones in my photo above: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07KJX4J3M Sadly, after less than two years the rubber is starting to come off the brake pedal, and that's the one I never use! I also noticed these...

Just hit my 3 year earlier this week, I am a little jealous of your new eyes, that "just picked up" period is the best. But I get super excited to drive the car and for updates to the software. Sort of like a marriage, dating is tantalizing, but waking up next to your love every day is SO...

So you tried plugging in and it wasn't powered?

Your car didn't come with Valet mode? You must have gotten it early!

I got my J&J shot today, cabin fever begone!

Yup. Seen one near my house, posted pics. No one cared. Perhaps it's the first Model 3 like that but Tesla has been doing things like this for years. Some suspect they are getting ground truth or validating their sensor data.

Sadly, not a good photo

it's not, seems more like they are working on the sewer in that corner of the lot, or replacing that generator the mall has. I haven't stopped and asked, but it is NOT work you would see from a Tesla crew. Blocking the last two charger spaces would definitely not be a thing Tesla would do.

Yes, before we even thought about buying a Tesla we had the iMiev. It's a basic car, though it has CHAdeMO, only takes 15 minutes to charge, but the range is a guess and so scary to drive very far for fear of it running out of juice. Just turning on the heat or the AC cuts the range by 1/3rd on...

Another American Housewife Tesla, this week Oliver's new GF's mom drives a grey Model S

I begin to wonder if the difference between those of you who get issues with this vs. those of us who don't think it's crazy dangerous is the follow distance setting. I keep mine at 7 most of the time. When it's rush hour I set it to 5 to encourage people to stay out of my lane. I don't live in...
