Kyle at Out of Spec has tested Silverado and the numbers solidly hold up. It's not even close compared to the other EV's including CT. It's a gargantuan battery with a truck stuck on top of it. So what, that Chevy loses 80k or so each truck it sells. Range, range range. It has me...

ABRP, once you enter the weight of your trailer, will select only chargers that are trailer friendly, I believe, once you click thru those chargers, it'll show you.

So why are you even here?

Are they quiet?

It's a what if. Get a Honda generator and listen to it wail and hack away at the pristine quiet, or add more rooftop or portable solar plus a lot more than my 300w of lithium, or get an expensive power generator like a Jackery or an Ecoflow. I need to spend more time in the trailer to sort out...

Have any of you boondockers tried Car generator? CarGenerator

I missed this thread before getting the Curt wireless brake controller-- which works fine for higher speed braking but is, let's say crotchety and jerky below 5mph. I have a Tekonsha p3 I purchased but have not yet installed. Did we get a confirmation that we received 16volt refresh X power...

I took them back too for same. The Pirelli's howled when new, have now evened out, but do not track straight and shimmy a tiny bit when the yoke is planted straight on the highway. Most won't notice but it drives me crazy. And they are a little floaty. Has anyone tried the Falken's?

Has anyone tried the Car Generator that hooks into a cars 12volt, into car generator, than plug the RV shore power cable into CarGenerator? In their website it says they work with full EV’s.

It would be nice to get an update of using the 12v to charge the trailer, as well as the trailer connector, if anyone can comment on newer vehicles?

I need to install a Drawtite hitch plus a brake controller and want a pro install so I don't clown it. Any suggestions in Burbank/L.A. area?

Just get the Rivian. They lose 30 to 60k per car they sell to you, so you can stick your tongue out at Elon because he wouldn't do the same.

How does 10,296 lb-ft of torque for the Beast, compare to your favorite gas wheezer truck? Are you a gas wheezer truck person? I'm just curious.

How is its towing ability, one wonders?... If only there was a vid that compared it to other trucks. Drat.

Did you once win participation trophies?

Only report I heard from an owner is that he paid 100k cash money. That's not a lease.

CT Beast is a stone-gas looker-- especially with black wrap. And just about as fast as Plaid except for that top end. I want it-- want it-- I want it. I'll either replace my Plaid X, or keep the X and Turo the CT or the X-- depending on which one I prefer. CT can tow most anything I will...

You doctored your argument. The F250 was hiking up its front wheels before it stopped, just like CT. Get out of town.

Really? Faster? Than why didn't the Taycan destroy the model S Plaid in the cannonball run that Kyle Connor did with his team? Destroy like that? Whatever do you mean, because I'd love to hear what you're talking about?

the one useful time I've used it in the past year was in Big Bear where there are no Tesla Superchargers. I didn't need to, but wanted to see if it worked. I happened to had been in the area going for a walk, and plugged into the Chargepoint fast(75kw) charger, and was full when I came back...

That link is broken. Not a good sign.

I hope they're still planning this one. On weekends sometimes you can see all 3 chargers in Burbank full, even the 6 month old 24stall on Victory. But that supercharger at the mall down the street from my house is absolutely hideous. I dont think I've seen higher than 75kw speeds the last 3...

Ohhh I thought you were talking about that badass fried chicken in Burbank at first. My bad.

Try charging one of those non-Tesla's. Your heart will slow to a stop. Have you seen the line at the EA over at Walmart on a weekend?

I got mine from China before they would sell them in the states. It's always worked fine. It's those chargers that suck ass.

I'm right with you on this. I'm thinking I want an even quieter tire than the oem Conti Silents, but need more performance, since these high speed bursts you describe are coming around more often lately and I can't replace 'down'. But I also love to ski, so... I may be the perfect candidate...

Last Saturday afternoon all 3 Burbank superchargers were full. Even after adding this 24 stall a few months ago. Man they have to leave the hammer down on the supercharger installations.

Can you elaborate on the change in comfort with this sway bar?

Absolutely. Though from time to time I do see this 24 stall full. But when it is, there are plenty of stalls avail at the other two sites.

Those Model X’s have a door seal issue that needs to be fixed.

I charged on Thursday and it zinged up to 250kw pretty quickly. I had started at about 30% as well. I believe there were about 6-8 spots available, so it was more than half full.

This past saturday afternoon there were no stalls available in Sherman Oaks out of 40 stalls. That site just went operational about 6 months ago. Crazy.

For sure. A long time Tesla owner turned Benz owner has been like a hyena that he can listen to Atmos in his car. I believe we don't have the same amount of speakers as the EQS, but Tesla software should be able to translate. I would just love to be able to have native quality from the...

At the top, peeps have said in other threads.

Level 1 chargers will only excacerbate range anxiety. I believe they hurt the EV effort. Towns and cities would install level 2 chargers thinking people can use them for travel, as well. They’re great if you work in the area. Otherwise unless your an almost useless plug-in hybrid, they are...

It’s showed up in my NAV, but had shown it as busy. I would drive there anyway and see about 6 or 7 stalls operational and the rest taped off. I’d charge anyway successfully and I was never alone doing so. Recently the NAV shows the stalls that are down and that it is operational. There is...

It’s a confusing misnomer for me— my bad. To me, master quality is true lossless.

When streaming downloads over wifi it’s 16b, 44.1— that is, if the green hifi button appears.

This new charger today shows as under maintenance in the NaV. Since it’s so close to home i stopped by there to see yellow tape on all but about 5 or 6 chargers. One guy was charging just fine and i plugged in to one of the non-taped chargers to check and got about 200kw speeds.

I don’t have summer tires but have had my XP up to 165 with 20’s– though it briefly charged hard up to 167 before easing back down to 165. Straight line of course. It would be interesting if they made the track package available for the Model X Plaid. I’d go for it.

The contractor for this Glendale Fashion Center site called me today regarding the brand new 26 stall(of 3) in Burbank. He said once they started construction, it would only take them about 2 months to finish this Glendale location.

I ended up calling both numbers that day you posted this. Not sure if this was the impetus to grease the skids but, boom. Victory was on and working the next day. Out of those phone calls, a contractor for Tesla called me today to let me know it was on line today, but obviously i already knew...

Charged here tonight. App knows it’s there, but NAV does not yet. App can’t even send the location to the car successfully. There are spots that are Cybertruck and Hummer sized. There are no pull thrus, but a couple of stalls, one can pull in with a trailer, and not block anything. This is...

They need to open this site sooner rather than later. This morning both San Fernando and the 1st Street mall chargers were full, just like last night. I'm assuming they are waiting on the city of Burbank whom slows everything down. If I could call someone in the city administration to grease...

I could never go back to a wheel. Yoke is way too confidence inspiring at speed.

I have to put the suspension in low, whenever i need to punch up some high speed bursts. Again, tires make all the difference. The 2019 doesn’t have torque vectoring like Plaid tho, so…

I always look for charging at a hotel, because waking up to 100% is the best feeling, even better than doing it from home. I check for where chargers are around in case they aren't working or busy. But hotel night charging is the best, especially if the valet maintains the charging. Airport...

Get the tires you really want. All seasons are not going to exactly give you that feel. Then report back.
