    A Better Route Planner - How

    Apologies if asked before, but still learning what can and can't be done. Ie no app store for Tesla but people say use ABRP. How? On Phone? On the web browser? How does the browser know what the car is doing? Planning my first long trip and superchargers will be required. Thanks in advance Ian

    car not finding home wifi - suggestions

    Not sure if this is a biggie or not but looks like my home wifi isn't strong enough to reach where the car is parked. The Zappi installer had to install the hub next to a one of the mesg boosters because of this and that worked for the zappi. But car is parked in the same location as the zappi...

    The announcement about the Lumber support came when the cars were on the boats (Correct me if I'm wrong) so are they being removed on arrival in the UK (Which I thought would be a hassle) or was it an announcement knowing that this was done months ago.

    Is supply/cost going to get better or worse?

    Ah yes that 10 days or so when the grant went and Tesla didn't match it, Used that example as why I should purchase my SR+ this Qtr rather than next. (With Tesla matching the grant and Ford not Suddenly the Mach E entry-level car from being cheaper to more expensive)
