I have sr+, they claim it is the most efficient ev. And SC charging is about the same as gas. And I compare my CUV vs sr+ sedan.

PMed you.

Your new filter does not have any charcoal in it. May not be as good as the original one.

Check with online power loss calculator, looks like with 50m cable and 3.5mm diameter loss will be about 8% with aluminum cable and about 5% with copper. Which is not that much. Especially if you can get off peak night electricity tariff for half price. This calculation is based on 32amps, you...

Great, I was about to post the same message.

You can also try running a charger from a window, some people do this in NYC: or like this:

Without home charger You gonna hate yourself after few weeks spending countless hours in the car waiting it to get some juice. Also, many people buy this car for few years only, there are multiple reasons for that: 1. No one knows it’s long term reliability 2. Battery degradation is real, just...

Here is simple example: SR+ Lets say price per gallon of gas is $2.5 Lets say price per kWh 15c Let say I have Tesla SR+ and Honda Insight Honda Insight real life MPG is 50 this means 1 mile costs me $2.5/50miles = 0.05c Tesla SR+ real lie MPGe is 140 or 130? whatever, it doesn't matter...

My energy cost is what I pay at the gas station. This is finilized cumulative price for all work and logistics that has been done. EV production is worse for emissions. There is no way to recycle the batteries, and child labor is used for digging rare materials for batteries.

Your math is wrong. You base your calculation on theoretical numbers provided by marketing people. EV consume energy while parked, to heat battery. Battery charging is 80-90% efficient. Real model 3 consumption translated to gas units is about 50mpg. Many ICE cars can do it now, and in the...

Hm..

If the commute is only few miles why not use a bicycle? Its like 100k in savings account in 5-7 years.

What did they tell you when they gave you the loaner car? Was it something like this car can be used while your car is being repaired? If so verbal agreement has a power of contract.

What was efficiency during this trip? What temperature did you set interior heater to?

So, I tried to link Tesla as a monitor inside YouTube app, but didn't find this option. Then I tried to share YouTube video with Tesla app installed on a phone, it works once out of like ten times. When it doesn't work it restarts Tesla, the display restarts and climate control fan goes to a...

I have one as well. Makes car 10% quieter on highway. It comes out after car wash air dryer sometimes.

I get 350Wh/mile lately, battery freezez during long highway trips. This correlates to range reduction to 60%

OMFG, I am glad they didn't kill anyone while fixing squeaky door. BTW mine started make some noise too, will make an appointment soon. Could be related to cold weather somehow.

Yes, but you will spend more on new sets of tires than on tickets.

I dont understand peoples mentality here. For some reason they think problems are getting solved by covering them up. This may work short term on stock market, but piling up issues will crash their assets and may destroy the company long term. Lets not talk about it and it will disappear. Such a...

That's not up to you to decide how I suppose to name the thread as long as I dont break any rules. This is personal perception how I feel about this review and name the thread. You are trying to alter someones else point of view. The name of the thread lost its expression and doesn't make any...

Never posted a single message or post on request of a business, if your boss is asking to promote a business in some way using your internet accounts they enslave you, trying to use your personal identity and reputation for their own benefit, I dont know why most people have not guts to say f...

I see your funboy feelings got hurt, lol

Have been waiting for this finally someone on the same page and is capable to understand the car technologies to properly evaluate them.

Nice wheels, what are these?

Looks like your 12V battery has died. Try replacing it in advance next time. Winter and old batteries dont mix well.

They dont work properly on both videos

I hate that picture of the car takes 35% of the screen real estate now. The map, Navi and a browser all got much smaller and farther from my touch. Who in the hell thought this is good ergonomic?

Ask Tesla to buy FSD back for 10k.

Usually comes as three different functions: CC + Lane Keep + Dynamic Radar CC. So you can use all of them independently.

Mine do the same, they work at full speed when there is no reason for that, and I look like some brain dead person with full speed wipers at light rain. And when I need them at full speed during heavy rain they dont run as fast. Crazy...They even run at full speed at traffic lights sometimes...

what was your main reason to switch? I would get BMW one day, they are quite expensive.

Now imagine your robotaxi is riding some customers and this happens, everyone is dead and you are responsible. Just a reminder we should have robotaxis in two days, and FSD as well.

Make sure everything opens and closes without additional sound or force. Check door wells for any scratches from misalignment. Those are important since they will damage paint and make you force them to close.

Ideal numbers would be during mid season, late Spring or early Fall, I think. Time when neither battery or interior heater/ac are on. I was able to get sub 200wh/mile for long distances.

Your range calculation is too good, 1 - you preheated it, 2 - your heater was set to 60 instead of normal 68-72. Normal driver gets in a car and drives it. You make it too complicated to compensate for better range and lower consumption.

Get lr but new, I have sr+ it is local car for city. Too much charging overhead during winter.

You were quite close. My consumption was ~330. SR+ doesn't have locked battery buffer, so my max charge is 80%, and almost never go beyond 20%, 10% is asking for trouble if something is wrong with the charger. Turnpike speed limit is 70, everyone drives 80-85, its two lane high speed highway, (I...

Haha, moved my point of view, because this forum is for "Tesla lovers", here goes your inability to accept different views aka freedom of speech, such a childish move, you are locking yourself to the views which will not hurt your feelings, it is going to be difficult to live in real world.

My original post was never about me or something specific. It is quick reference on how to plan a trip to topic started. I see alot of BS on this forum. Mostly because most people's selfishness dont allow them to be honest. There was a thread here about SC being as expensive as gasoline. I saw...

Go back to school, I did this trip on SR+. Your theoretical Tesla fanboy lies not gonna work on me.

See my following message for details. You lose time on driving EV routes, I included all time associated with riding EV to/from SC into "charging".

That's what I use. Phila suburbs to Pittsburgh, ICE EV

80 minutes is charging alone. You get off the road you were riding on, you take slower roads to get to the charger. Tesla routes based on maximum driving distance, it will take a road in the middle in nowhere instead of direct highway to the destination. While you are driving at 30mph local...

20 minute will add about 100-120 miles. Which teanslates to 60-70 real world miles. They probably keep tesla stocks this is why 40 minutes became 20 for them. :) Also I compare time to travel on ICE car vs tesla. Its not just charging time, but time to get to charger. Also tesla navigation...

You probably never use your heater. When i drive during negative degrees battery freezes. And I am happy to get 330 Wh/mile efficiency. On pa turnpike speed limit is 70mph, everyone drives 80-90. At these speeds and cold temps its impossible to go below 300

From my experience for every 5 hours of driving add 2 additional hours for charging.

Why do you need DIY? Take it back, tell them to fix that damn outlet and ask for model s loaner while they work on your car. Make them work.

Slopes is something human can feel and develop instinctive feeling to it. Regen is constantly changing thing.
