Correct on the Somerset one. We didn't use the Turnpike location for this trip. Sorry about the duplication. We visited the same charger there and back.

Finished our CT to KY trip last week. Below are the new chargers we were able to stop at. During the trip, it was nice to see a good amount of these at a Wawa or Sheetz. 10 July 2021 Basking Ridge, NJ Carlisle, PA Breezewood, PA Sommerset, PA 11 July 2021 Weston, WV Charleston, WV Lexington...

I wonder if it has to do with you having free supercharging for a while. It should show up at the same spot you see idle fees. Mine doesn't even show idle fees, just the supercharging cost. Have you confirmed that you are getting charged supercharging fees? If so, I would recommend submitting...

That's a bit paranoid. It's not like they were creeping in your backyard.

The prices should show up on your navigation after you select the supercharger as the point of interest.

A few new SCs used: 5-9-2021 Hartford, CT Leibert Road 5-10-2021 Fairfield, CT Northbound 7-4-2021 Kearny, NJ 7-5-2021 Hamilton Township, NJ 7-5-2021 Danbury, CT We are taking a trip to Kentucky next weekend and I will definitely have a few more to add after that trip.

I'd rather have a double headed unicorn than a double rainbow. Checks in the mail.

Damn man, what got you all fired up today? You've been roasting everyone today. Someone buy this man a cheeseburger so a bum can throw it at him!

Buying tires from Costco is just like anywhere else. From my experience it depends on what they have in stock, not so much if the tire is good or not. Any tire place can sell you a good or bad tire. Costco has had good prices for me in the past but I always shop around.

You should post this in the Model 3 thread, not the Model S. You may have better luck!

You car looks great. I have been looking into dipping my car or at least my rims. I want to go with a matte look in a gunmetal gray.

I would disagree with you auto dimming statement. This feature has never been a problem for my car and is one of my favorite night features. Sometimes the car's sensor turn my high beams off when there are brighter street lights but never has it turned on my high beams when another car is present.

That's a pretty good offer and if you wanted to wait out FSD until v11, you could always add it later which should be the same cost. I'd also think about the cost off adding on the other additions you did to that total price such as clear bra, ceramic, etc. The other option is to wait about a...

Frunk is not the actual name of the front truck. It's a nickname people made up. To be technical, they should rename truck to "rear" with the same icon that is on there now.

I agree with @agg on this for H&R. I saw their springs on one of the aftermarket Tesla sites and from what they say, the H&R springs lower the car a bit and make the ride smoother. I'll see if I can find where I saw these springs.

There are at least four superchargers from Glen Allen to VA that you could stop at. This would also save you a lot more time than sitting at one charging station. The 80% limit is because the charger at Glen Allen is busy which helps other people charger vice you sitting there for another 20...

First off, sorry to hear about your incident. This sounded pretty terrible. But to be honest (and not trying to be a jerk), your car gave multiple warnings which you admittedly ignored. I cannot expect a car designer to try and cater sounds to my individual personal liking because I may choose...

It's been done. Probably not very safe but that doesn't keep stupid from happening.

Very impressive. I will be interested to see what their official lap time is with the version of the MS. I saw last night that the stock MS Plaid placed 13th for lap time at Leguna Seca.

If I can't wash my towels right way after use, I do one of two things. I either fill a bucket with laundry detergent and water then place the soiled towels in there to soak until I can wash them or I label them with sharpie with a small T on the corner of the towel to remind me they are now for...

Is there any other issues you are having with the mirror positions? If not, maybe try making a new profile and see if the problem follows to the new profile. If it doesn't, the profile you normally use may have corrupted.

OP, your subject line is epic!

I would enable split tunneling in the Nord app then. That will solve this issue you are having while not needing to turn off your VPN.

If you think it's your VPN, you can go into the NordVPN settings and enable split tunneling. Then select the app you want to tunnel. This will allow that app to bypass the VPN. I had to do this with my voicemail app because it would never connect to the voicemail server when I was connected to...

I had this "lane sway" issue when I first bought my MS used. So I recalibrated the cameras and during that time I tried to drive as centered as possible. I have never had this problem since unless I was approaching a turn on AP faster than I should have been. During those times it just seemed...

A good resource for finding decent chargers is "A Better Route Planner" or "PlugShare". ABRP shows you the amenities around that area and it's pretty easy and quick to find out if that area is "lonely".

I would like a mode where my Tesla will plug in my pressure washer, fill my wash bucket, and grab my wax/detailer spray for me. Or just pop my trunk and tell me it needs to be washed! LOL

Thanks for the update! My family and I are going on our first road trip in July in our MS. We are heading from CT to KY. This information was greatly appreciated and will help us plan our trip.

Totally agree with this statement. Once I changed to percentages, life became much more enjoyable behind the wheel of my MS.

I had a similar issue where the steering wheel stopped adjusting but when I changed the profiles, it would move. I took the car in for service and they found one of the wiring harnesses had came loose. I don't know seat changed positions when changing profiles but you did mention that you now...

US Marine so that makes me a professional crayon eater I guess!

There are multiple ways to report fraud within the US by using the Department of Justice. It may not get you the results you want but could prevent someone else in the future from gong through this. A good start is gathering as much information of the fraudulent party as you can.

I personally would not think this would be a good option as some locations already suffer from over crowding. Maybe if they did a couple visitor stalls on non-peak hours but even then, I think this would upset quite a few Tesla owners.

I'm running the same FW on MCU1. I haven't had any Bluetooth issues but did notice some slow downs once I upgraded to this version. I did a full hard reset a couple days ago and noticed a vast improvement in response with my MCU. I can even use the voice features without waiting a few minutes...

That's quite a bit of leaves!

When it gets foggy where I live, my car says the radar can't see and auto pilot is currently unavailable so I don't think much will be affected by losing the radar.

That was my assumption too was that I won't get many new updates because I am still on MCU1. But I will be updating to a new MCU2 here soon so we will see if that comes true!

I don't recall any road departure warnings but I honestly don't look that closely when they come up. I am sure I have gotten one or two before. I did try and recreate your issue this morning when I was on the road and no one was around. My car didn't send any warnings but it may have been...

I'm curious to why some Model S versions have 2021.x.x firmware while some are still on 2020.x.x? My car hasn't updated since 2020.48.37.2, is there a way to get a more recent firmware version? When I check for updates, it says my car is up to date.

What is your circuit breaker rated at? If it's not rated for 40 or 50 amps, I don't think you'll see anything higher than you are.

You could wait until it happens again then long press the car icon on the center console. After about 5 seconds, it will log a service message that the technician can then pull up. You may just need to tell them that was the date/time the recent road departure issue occurred. Hope this helps!

I only run into issues with the lane departure warnings when I have them enabled. If I turn them off in the settings, all warnings stop. I agree with the possible driver profile corruption. I turned the warnings on most of the time and notice that I get bugged from the car when not using my turn...

Agreed. I have learned that when in AP around town to keep my foot near the accelerator for situations like this. I have also noticed in the New England area that my car doesn't like going up a curved hill and seems to hit the brakes 50% of the time when nothing is there. I think this is because...

So I had someone bump into the rear right panel of my Model S and I am looking for a body shop in CT or Springfield, MA area that will work on Teslas. I had the estimate done by a shop in CT through my insurance but they told me they will not work on Teslas because they cannot get parts for...

I agree that you need to get your insurance involved. Let them do the evaluation. Hopefully you have a decent insurance company because if not, there's a whole another nightmare awaiting.

I think this is a pretty cool idea. I will keep an eye out for one.

This morning at 5am I was driving into work with AP engaged and when I went near a flashing yellow, the Driver Console flashed red stating "Take Control Immediately" and I noticed the speed limit icon had changed to a street light icon. I have never seen this happen before and was curious if...

March 11: West Hartford, CT Supercharger

Thank you for this information!

So I went and took my 2017 75D in for service two weeks ago and while it was there, I asked to have it uncorked. When I got it back from service, the receipt said the car was not eligible for uncorking. My 75D was previously a 60D. Is there a way to tell if it is actually eligible for the...
