So every 1.5 minutes you need to take over. 3x in 7 miles seems like that ballpark.

I am now very glad I didn’t get FSD, basically you’re just bankrolling an R&D effort. Even EAP, I probably should have spent that 5k on dual motor for my M3 instead.

After trying to use (Enhanced) Autopilot on a trip to and in Yosemite a week ago, I'm beginning to think it's only suitable as an urban limited access divided highway driver assist. Several years ago just after getting my Model 3, I used it on a trip up (northbound) Hwy 1 along the coast (San...

Congrats, The 3 is a great car. I def vote for hold. I came from Prius, then Leaf, where light/no touch on accelerator leads pretty much to a stop, no muscle memory to unlearn there. If you or husband are kind of leery of unlearning creep like in gas cars correctly, totally pull the foot off...

Now 26%, next year 22% tax credit. I guess missed my chance when we got solar a few years ago. Cost was higher, public safety power shutoff (PSPS) not as frequent. What was your calculated break even point? For my solar, I calculated ~8-10 yr equivalent, so even if we got hit with a big...

powerwall or other battery backup may have utility if you get frequent outages, but as a time of use shifter wonder if the ROI is anywhere reasonable. between high install cost, efficiency loss, and the fading of capacity over time, would seem only practical if you have sky high rate...

yeah, that's the issue. even if the off peak rate is lower, for many people unless you drive a lot and the EV constitutes a big part of total consumption the on peak hits you for consumption you can't move easily (heating/AC, cooking if you have electric stove, etc).

20c per kWh including transmission costs doesn't sound that crazy, assuming you get about 3 miles/kWh like Iowa2 calculated.. Just web searched LIPA seem to indicate cost per kWh around 10c, dunno if that's including transmission/service. A properly operating charger shouldn't draw that much...

Ugh yeah I have those interior rattles, feels like left and right front pillar areas, intermittently. For those of you familiar with Bay area, that stretch of gravelly asphalt on 101 around SFO most often triggers it.
