A buddy of mine with a Model 3 says that I'll recover most of the energy spent going up the hills as I go down. Is that true?

Thanks. Both it and Tesla would have me go south to HWY 2 which would add considerable time. There's destination charging in Winthrop as it turns out that should, getting an extra 30-60 miles, make the difference to get to Burlington.

is there a route planner you'd recommend?

My wife, sister and I always head to Winthrop WA from Seattle for a blues festival in July. After each festival, we travel someplace interesting. This year, the plan is to travel to White Rock BC to visit my son and grandkids. This is the first year that our Tesla MYLR is available for the...

Comedians don't willfully disrupt democracy with malicious intent.

No I don't. I don't operate with perfect information. Few of us do of course. BUT I will know if Musk adds to the disruption of our democracy. I agree that Trump won't recruit new members to his base at this point but it sure could churn his base in dangerous ways.

I tweeted him yesterday letting him know that, should he work to enable Trump to spew his lies and undermine US democracy, I will have bought my last Tesla. I'd encourage similarly-minded folks to do the same.

No, never figured it out. Was this ever supported?

We're leaving town for several days without the car. What are the pros and cons of keeping it plugged in while we're away? Is it consuming a lot of electricity? TIA, David

Right, as you and MY1stEV suggest, I have features from other versions as well now. It makes it difficult to assess the full set of 'new' features coming with any particular update. Seems like a crazy versioning system to me. Is there something I'm missing in terms of the wisdom underlying...

Right, but how do I know if features from intervening updates are included in my new update (or even if there ARE intervening updates) even though not listed as associated with that specific update?

I'm currently on 2021.36.8. I'm now getting 2021.44.6 pushed to me. I can see the notes for what's in the new version. Is that the sum total of the difference between the two versions or are there intermediate versions I wasn't pushed and thus have no idea what the total set of new features I...

I can only text with one person at a time but I have numerous group messaging going on. Any speculation as to when group messaging would become available in an update? David

What's the secret to playing entire albums/CDs on Spotify? When I say "Play the album [album name] by [artist name]" it plays some [artist name] radio. What's worse, when I ask "Play [song name] by [artist name]", it also gives me [artist name] radio, and it doesn't even play the song I...

I've looked at the app and it's not clear which preferences you have in mind. Can you be a bit more explicit?

thankfully, they do not ;-)

I have the premium connectivity package and enjoy Spotify while driving. However, one annoyance is that much of the media Spotify offers in its Album and Artist views seems entirely unrelated to the music I've been playing. I took some time to train Spotify re the sorts of music I like but...

Old phone is long gone I'm afraid

me too

I had it all set up and then got a new phone which apparently broke the authenticator. Not sure what to do now.

Could you post a picture of the playlist?

Got this case and it works like a champ!

The problem I'm having is that, once I provide my ID and password, it asks for the 'Passcode'. Google searches yield these instructions: Sign in to your Tesla Account with your email and password. Then, tap 'Profile Settings.’ Under Multi-Factor Authentication, tap ‘Manage.’ Well, I don't see...

I just confirmed that tapping on "Playlist" shows the tracks for the currently playing album but no other music content is shown. Is that what you mean? I wish I could see ALL the music on my phone so I could choose what to play through the touch screen.

My MYLR was delivered with the wood trim rather dry looking. I asked at the service center whether it's part of the delivery fit&finish work and was told no. What have folks used to treat their wood trim successfully? For a moderately expensive car, I would have expected better frankly. TIA, David

they were both on.

Thanks. how frequently do you think this will be required?

Is there any expectation that all or most cars will be brought under a single version? Are we all driving around with different features?

Can anyone explain why my version (2021.11) isn't included? TIA, David

Any thoughts as to why the car would require a key card rather than jus using my phone which I've used numerous times before? TIA, David

wish I knew if it was a bug or a response to some system state I'm unaware of...

The driver's window refused to close today for some period of time. It simply won't stay closed. At some point, it closed but I haven't a clue as to what caused it to stay down OR roll up! Any suggestions would be helpful. Looking in the owners manual but haven't found it yet (if it's even in...

Which case was it that didn't work?

I'm due for a new phone and want to make sure that whatever case I get for my new iPhone 13 Pro Max works with the Qi charger in my new MYLR. Might those with success stories please share info about their cases? FWIW, I'd rather not give Apple $50 for a case when I could get one for a bit more...

This sounds more like an issue for Android devices which are far more configurable than iPhones which Apple keeps pretty well locked down in terms of app configuration. Once I've given the Tesla app its required permissions, it should be good to go, right?

I don't think it's that the car doesn't 'see' my phone. I mean, once I take the phone out to 'manually' open the car, it should be seen, right?

I open the car with the Tesla app on my iPhone 7 Plus.

it's now happened two other times when it was dry

A buddy of mine with a M3 just got software update v.2021.32.21. My MYLR doesn't not appear to have rec'd an update and is still at v.2021.11.104. Any thoughts or news about when we might be an update? TIA, David

It happened again!! This could get very, very old.

Sorry, I've not noticed that button yet. Where is it positioned?

My wife was enjoying some Careoke when I tapped on the Spotify tab. Rather than show my Spotify choices, it continued to show me the Careoke screen. This is a bug, right? As a new owner, I'm wondering what to do with this and how often should I expect such errors to occur. I sure hope they test...

Would this forum be the best place to submit a suggestion to Tesla? If not, a link to the right page would be most appreciated!! TIA, David

Is that what happens for you?

Yup

So I should address this with service?

The car would not unlock at one point. I could see on the console that there was a Sentry event. Is that why it wouldn't open? I had to use the mobile app to unlock the car. The sentry event turns out to be just me and a friend talking in front of the car. Is this normal behavior? TIA, David...

All of a sudden, I can't seem to receive or send messages. When I attempt to send them, I get the message "Text messaging is supported on iOS 13/An…". My iPhone 7 Plus is currently running iOS 15 so I wouldn't think it'd be a problem. Thoughts? TIA, David

Right, that's what I would expect but nothing happens.

When I use my phone for entertainment, I see a "David's iPhone" choice displayed. Unfortunately, whereas I would expect this to allow me to explore the contents of my phone, it does NOTHING when tapped. Am I missing something?
