    The DOJ Tesla probe has expanded to include EV driving ranges

    Don't get me started. Ok, too late. I have a 2023 Mach E GT and the biggest difference I find is that almost every Tesla driver I chatted with at a Supercharger knew everything I did about charging, driving, planning, etc. Most of the drivers I've chatted with while charging at CCS chargers...

    The DOJ Tesla probe has expanded to include EV driving ranges

    I get that completely, but you're calculating it yourself. How many people do that, or even know how to do that, when comparing EV's?

    The DOJ Tesla probe has expanded to include EV driving ranges

    True, but what had me walk into the Tesla dealer before the Ford dealer at that time was the 50 mile difference in range between the two. What sold me on the Tesla is when the rep pulled up the map and I saw all of the red dots to which he said "and those represent all of the places you can...

    The DOJ Tesla probe has expanded to include EV driving ranges

    Not sure why people are arguing against what is common knowledge in that Tesla overstates their range. I'd regularly take an 800 mile road trip in my 2021 MYLR (to my son at college and then back) in conditions from well below freezing to summer heat. The trip is all highway and the best miles...

    Considering opting out of FSD beta

    About 3 weeks ago I opted out of FSD Beta. After having it for almost a year, the progressions they've made still didn't leave me confident enough to use it on city streets. Cool tech, absolutely. Just not anywhere near ready for everyday usage. I sent the email requesting to be removed from...

    Door Pillar error message

    Remember, it's a camera. It's the equivalent of what you'd see if you pointed the camera of your phone to the sun, or tried taking a picture in a very dimly lit room. It simply means the camera is not providing enough data for the car to safely determine road/traffic conditions at the moment.

    Range on road trip much lower than expected (<200 miles on full charge)

    Since taking delivery of my Y (LR, 5 seat, 20" wheels) in early September I've taken the same 425 mile trip 4 times. 50 miles of that trip is 30-40mph roads, the rest is 70mph highway. Net elevation change through that trip is close to zero, though it is not a flat drive. Via teslafi stats...

    Whats the silliest EV prejudice youve heard?

    The best reply I've found is to simply say: So I guess you'd rather your iPad be filled with gasoline? It's definitely the epitome of "leading the witness" questions regarding an EV.

    Haha... my wife and daughter feel the same way. I also get bizarre looks when I'm entering a destination in the nav that is 5 min away, so I usually just test it when I'm by myself. Preferably very early or late in the day when there aren't as many other cars on the road. I was watching a...

    FSD Beta is remarkable, but I'm afraid that it requires a far greater attention to driving than what people are going to give it. Having been a software developer for decades, I have beta tested pretty much every OS from Windows95 to IOS15. Aside from needing to test it for work purposes...

    He was pissed, and rightfully so. This was a pre-angel eye halo light model BMW. If I remember correctly, it involved drilling into the light assembly and fishing a fiber optic cable inside. The point is, the insurance company *can* deny a claim if a safety feature of the car - in this case...

    Cruise control / Auto Pilot is Garbage

    Have had my MY for a month now, about 3300 miles. I've had a few instances of phantom breaking, all in early morning or late afternoon when sun is low in sky and long shadows are across the highway. Haven't had any instances at night. The speed has also been remarkably accurate. I have FSD...

    safety score multiple drivers

    Consider it this way. The score needs to be tied to the VIN since it’s the car that would get the FSD beta. You acknowledging that it’s the teenagers dragging the score down is even more reason Tesla wouldn’t want FSD Beta in your car.

    First long trip in a MY. Am I being overly cautious on ABRP?

    25% over speed limit? Of course your SOC is off. On a 70 mph highway I’m usually setting AP between 75-77 and am always at the predicted SOC on arrival. By comparison you’re driving close to 90 on that same 70mph highway?

    Autopilot and windshield wipers

    I had the opposite also happen. AP was on and I tried cleaning the wipers via washer fluid/wipe. Message came up saying "wipers cannot be activated while on AP". We joked while driving that the car was pretty much telling us "you don't need to see anything, I got you covered"
