    Firmware 5.8

    I just got notified Sunday (yesterday) that there is new software available, and started it since it's WiFi tethered in my garage. Is it me, or does it seem like something is a little different with acceleration on the car? Seems like it's a little different.

    --- Busted! Yea, I am a So Cal native, moved up to the bay area in 2000. Yes, I call out "the 17" as if it were the correct way to speak about a freeway or highway.

    I'd say 50-60 without AC each way... you'll burn 35-40 up the 17, but regenerate or stay the same past the fish hook, till about 41st.

    Solar Question

    I have not. Anyone use any hot tub timers? My hot tub at the least will turn on every 12 hours. On EVA, that means off-peak and partial peak, but it would be great if there were 3rd party timers for nordic hot tubs. I mean, I know there are timers, are they easy to install and work, etc?

    You'll be fine with AC from Cupertino to Aptos and back. I have been driving alot to a client in Redwood City and back, and I leave that AC on almost all the time. Probably has to do with how its driven with the AC on, because I can sure tell you I love to open it up if the situation is right...

    Solar Question

    Tesla owner. Changed my PG&E rate to EVA, at my billing cycle which was same time as delivery. Averaged 750kWh/month before the car. 2 months in, and I am 1156kWh and 1200kWh. Thanks to EVA rate, my bill actually dropped by $70.00. My question is: If I use 1200kWh as my non winter usage...

    Rob from the Santa Cruz area here. Black P85+. Delivery was Aug 29. I love this car. I notice the AC really drains that battery, eh? I leave my garage every morning at 235, and I seem to always be 200 miles at the top of the 17 (Summit), but by the time I hit Los Gatos, I am usually at...

    Recommendation for an electrician in South Bay?

    Chris with Coastline Electric in Santa Cruz. He installed my HPWC in my Garage. He did the breaker work, was able to use existing conduit, dug a small trench in a planter area, punched through the wall with conduit, and mounted nice on the inside, put dirt back neatly, cleaned up nice. We...

    Driving without HOV stickers, get pulled over?

    I mailed my $8 to the DMV and got my cert and stickers, but I just can't make myself put them on such a nice car. I was talking to a neighbor who's a CHP about it, and he suggested I keep them in the glove box, and if I do get pulled over, say I haven't put them on yet. But he said, if the...

    browse -> radio -> xm -> no items to display #is what I see. nothing on the right side of the menu for XM from browse. If I select XM, I can hear the guy on channel 1 talking, and if I try and use the arrow keys to go up or down channels, it doesn't do anything

    SiriusXM Channel 0

    I just got delivery today. Drove home after taking the factory tour, parked near my house and proceeded to try and figure out how to get to Channel 0 to get my radio ID. I have been a longtime XM/Sirius customer, and simply want to remove my old car's ID with my Tesla's radio ID, but all I can...
