    Model Y Tow Package available soon from Tesla Australia

    How'd you end up going with the MH314? I need to fit one that has a rise instead of a drop as my trailer sits pretty high.

    Cybertruck testing near Wanaka - light at end of tunnel (CT waiting list)

    Two things: utes are top sellers here in Aust but tiny compared to world market. The top sellers only sell 3500 cars per month. Americans buy more than twice that many utes every day. Tesla is also a big car manufacturer by any measure. The model Y was the best selling car worldwide recently and...

    Yes, only for some thought. Lots have the cable so just plug in. For some you’ll need a type 2 cable for some chargers. PlugShare app is pretty good for finding out which ones need it.

    As some others have said unfortunately you won't get the UMC tesla mobile charger. YMMV but what I did is, firstly beware certain aussie youtubers who are paid to promote expensive alternatives and don't have to fork out $450!, looked around for good alternatives that won't break the bank. Note...

    ChargeFox EV charging Network

    So here's something interesting. A charge popped up and an invoice arrived for a charging session today at a charger 2000kms from me. Explanation was the person charging couldn't get the app going so the call centre started the charge for them and charged my account. Pretty poor authentication...

    p.s.s the first thing the car wanted when it got home was a software update haha. Just like all of my phones, computers and tablets.

    This is quite different to the experience a lot of people had mentioned here in that they are left alone with the car for as long as they want and then leave when they're ready. There a few videos of the sydney and melb pickup experience showing this as well. I guess YMMV

    My Tesla was hit very hard on the front and the side yesterday. What is the best body shop in Tucson that does Tesla work?

    Best laugh I've had all day :) . People comment on the internet all the time based on no facts or detail but htis one is the funniest I've seen in a long time.

    Not true. And 0% on a Tesla isn’t really 0% on the battery anyway.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Put 74,000 kms on my leaf which had a usable range to <5% of 100 kms. So nah, 350 is going to be great for a long time. Even when the battery degrades to 250 I’ll still smash out 30,000 kms per year in it. Chargers everywhere so no one needs to go more than a couple hundred k’s at a time

    From what I read it takes the port guys - stevedores (?) 24 hours to unload a whole ship, but then the cleaners only work 9-5 and can only clean 50 cars per hour. So it takes 8-10 days to process the ship load.

    I believe this one has a 10amp plug. When I bought mine I had the option of 10 or 15 but as I have a 15 socket already I chose the 15. https://ultipower.com.au/collections/portable-ev-charger/products/mida-adjustable-portable-ev-charger-6a-8a-10a-type-2-au-plug

    Charging Adaptors 101

    Honestly why are you quibbling over $100 and wish to take the risk of using an non-approved device to plug in your $70K+ vehicle? There's a couple of safe, standards compliant and approved options: $550 from tesla, or $280 from legit suppliers.

    Charging Adaptors 101

    you can get a 10amp one that has a 10amp plug and plugs into any standard power point. No point getting one that is 15 amp or EU plug and converting - why bother with the extra hassle and safety issues. Just buy a 10amp one and plug in anywhere.

    sorry I didn't quote. I was referring to the link above "For me to continue with the casual charging - literally 2 or 3 hours once per week - I just want a cheaper alternative to the $550 Tesla mobile charger. This is what I am considering: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005504881506.html"

    This one feels a little too cheap. YOu'd need to see what's inside it. I too wanted a cheaper alternative to the $550 brick that will sit in the frunk for 99% of it's life. :) and went for this one: MIDA Adjustable Portable EV Charger | 8A 10A 15A | Type 2 AU Plug $279.50 shipped.

    my VIN hasn't shown up on the RAV search yet. I assume this means it still hasn't arrived in Country yet. I got my final invoice, rego papers a long time ago and build date was 06/05.
