    Tesla blesses other cars blocking two stalls due to short cord

    I mean, isn’t Tesla getting a $5-7 billion subsidy from the government just to open the network up to others? Weird to blame anything on the government here

    Tesla blesses other cars blocking two stalls due to short cord

    As a now non-Tesla owner, charging should be capped to 80% and have enormous fees to charge past that IMO. But even when I had my Tesla, I only encountered a full station once. Just leave the last two spots on the right open and that will allow 2 non-Teslas to charge, it’s by far the easiest...

    Sorry, pet liner is sold and I can't edit the post. Only coilovers are left.

    IRS weighs in on tax rebate, mostly bad news for Model Y

    360 cams are mostly useful for seeing if you're within the parking lines and showing any obstructions live on camera. I can look out my window to see how close I am to the car next to me / in front of me, but I can't see the lines without a 360 cam.

    I can get some in a day or two. The box is in my basement and need to move some stuff around to get to it (It’s hiding from my wife)

    Woops, pet liner should be $120, not $150. Had the retail price mixed up.

    Autopilot buddy code is changed?

    No not in this case, because it didn’t technically give me the “red flag”, it just said defeat device detected and to remove it. I turn off autopilot, removed it, and turned it back on.

    Autopilot buddy code is changed?

    I dunno, I just took it off and restarted autopilot because I only had 30 miles to go. The rest of the drive was through downtown Atlanta on the freeway so I wouldn’t have gone hands free anyway.

    Autopilot buddy code is changed?

    Can't tell you for FSD, but I'm on 2022.44.25.3 on my Model 3 and I got an 'hands-free defeat device detected' after 100 miles of driving with it today. No other warnings before that

    Sold 2022 Model 3 LR / Accel Boost - 7500 miles - SC, USA

    Given that Tesla is giving a larger rebate for new vehicles, lowering price to $45k

    Sold 2022 Model 3 LR / Accel Boost - 7500 miles - SC, USA

    Looking for $50k OBO. As of today the car has 7,121 miles but that will go up. I'm picking up my R1T Friday and selling my Tesla (or my wife's Mach E GT, whichever sells first). This car is fully factory stock aside from the additions listed below. Clean title but since there's a lien on it...

    Tesla Loan - additional payments are not applied towards principal and only a credit for future payments due

    Easy, just refinance through a real financial institution. It's on the consumer to know whether or not additional payments go to principal, interest, or a holding account. I have avoided certain lenders in the past with comparatively lower interest rates because they don't apply additional...

    Pricing regrets?

    It's like a permanent chill mode! :p All joking aside, I don't feel comfortable speculating on the 2023 tax credit enough to tell you if a price in December is better / worse than a price in January. I don't think you'll be able to get a used Model Y for $45k within a year personally.

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    Stock market isn’t exactly a great barometer right now, to be fair. Tesla is down almost 60% YTD, that tends to happen in a recession.

    Reverse instead of Drive by Mistake?

    Yea but not for a dude with a stop sign in the road. You'd have to hit the brakes in this case.

    Reverse instead of Drive by Mistake?

    .... how? If you're stopped, autopilot isn't on.

    Elon & Twitter

    Yea we also have a Mustang Mach E GT. The Mustang seats are more comfortable but it is worse in basically every other aspect. It’s not that it’s a bad car in any way specifically, just compared to the model 3 it’s worse. The Mustang replaced an Audi Q5 and it was an upgrade

    Supercharging now more expensive than ICE

    Let's break it down even further... a "comparable" vehicle with 450hp gets about 24 mpg highway (BMW M2, for example). 2100 miles divided by 24 = 87.5 gallons of fuel. 87.5 gallons at $3 a gallon is $262.50. You still saved over $100. I spend a stupid amount of money on snacks / drinks...

    It doesn't make me not want to own a Tesla, but I really think the board should remove him at this point. There isn't a better EV to buy unfortunately.

    Tein Flex Z front shock mount

    Curious if you have measurements of how much thread is still exposed on the coilovers body also? I can’t find this measurement that corresponds to Teins suggested ride height. I still have to install mine and I have the rear set at Max height but not sure where to put the fronts before installation

    Battery conditioning model 3

    It should be relatively obvious though, shouldn't it? When mine preconditions you can definitely hear fans / battery whine slightly

    PPF Yes or No?

    Absolutely, I love my ceramic simply because it makes washing 1000% easier.
  29. B

    PPF Yes or No?

    Ceramic actually really doesn’t change the look. It may look shinier because it was polished before the ceramic was applied, but ceramic doesn’t make it glossier

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    I dont follow. EAP and standard autopilot are the exact same things aside from EAP changing lanes for you.

    Battery conditioning model 3

    Mine is normally 30 minutes out. But I’ve only supercharged in the summer, maybe it’s different with colder temps? Or maybe different depending on how long you’ve already been driving?

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    USS is only for parking. It’s not safety related

    How to wash a car during winter season? I do not have a garage, live in a condo building

    Optimum no rinse (ONR). It’s amazing. Also, it’s just a car as the guy above said.

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    Which is perfect, who isn’t ready to get out, stretch, use the bathroom, and switch drivers every 3 hours? We did that anyway with ICE vehicles

    Is enhanced autopilot (2022) worth it?

    Correct, that's basic autopilot.

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    That's a function of the tires, not the vehicle.

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    We have a MMEGT and have never hit this limitation. Not because it doesn’t exist, but because by the time you hit it you’re almost at 100mph.

    Considering canceling my order. Rekindle the Tesla fire?

    USS removal is still up for debate if it’s a bad thing, but I can tell you that LIDAR removal isn’t worth fussing over. I’ve never had a problem in my whole 7k miles with vision only; it just works. Superchargers are still exclusive. I do agree the seats are garbage and it’s definitely lacking...

    Is enhanced autopilot (2022) worth it?

    Nah this is not accurate. Tesla includes rollout (first 1ft not counted 0-60) for the performance models but not the other models. More accurately, Model 3 should be 4.0, 3.5, 3.1 respectively including rollout. Omitting rollout it would be 4.2, 3.7, 3.3 ish. Same for the Model Y, should be...

    40.X and steering Wheel weight?

    I just drove about 30 miles on the highway this morning and was able to go 20 minutes easily with my weight and no disengagements with a simple nudge every couple minutes. I find it harder to do much more than that anyway simply because I find it necessary to change lanes occasionally due to on...

    Is Tesla Y better than other all electric SUVs?

    Price range and safety rating make sense to compare, but why weight? Nobody cares how much a vehicle weighs unless it’s going to require special tires / etc. Weight may make it handle differently but if you’re looking at a MY anyway the handling isn’t a top priority.
