    FSD Owners - Do any of you prefer leaving it off?

    I don't see the point of even using fsd, it nags at just about everything and I'm spending more time trying to satisfy the system than ever before. I'm better off just driving myself and not having to worry about the system wanting me to randomly torque the wheel. I just did a small road trip...

    Difference between these models

    So there's no real way to know unless it's in person or if I know the build date?

    Difference between these models

    I'm looking to buy another M3 but I'd like to secure a LFP battery and the advisors over the phone nor online are much help. When browsing the used inventory I see two the types as follows, Model 3 Standard Range Plus Rear-Wheel Drive Range 262 5.3s 0-60 Standard Range Plus Rear-Wheel Drive...

    For prospective EV buyers: "How much range will I actually get?"

    It does seem low. However, it's the reality for some people. With my vehicle I drove an hour away to a art exhibit which was 64.2 miles away. At 86% starting charge. I ended my trip with 42% charge left. So I used 44% of the battery for 64 miles if given the same conditions and constants 128...

    For prospective EV buyers: "How much range will I actually get?"

    That's the point the end user shouldn't have to do all of that to determine how much range they would get. Granted it is a reality but the point is its nowhere near accurate. I'm a prime example of I went with SR+ and saw the rated and knocked off some range for realism and it's still far far...

    For prospective EV buyers: "How much range will I actually get?"

    What you're not understanding is we aren't talking about ev owners of today, we are talking about potential customers. If the make and model said 300 miles on a full tank and I actually got 200 I wouldn't be too mad because you could chalk it up as running the AC, heat and driving inefficient...

    Charging at work, keep it plugged in at home

    The owners manual says it's okay to keep it plugged in when not in use. If anything following what it says can't really do too much harm and the whole wear on the charging port/latch is probably valid in the long run and I mean the long run. I actually spoke to a tesla rep the other day and...

    For prospective EV buyers: "How much range will I actually get?"

    Nah I had the charging issue because of my lack of research beforehand. I knew at some point tesla did bundle mobile chargers and banked on that and didn't get one. My point was my truck had a 26 gallon tank not 30 and my average was 14-16 miles to the gallon and is very inefficient and the way...

    For prospective EV buyers: "How much range will I actually get?"

    I don't think that's what it is, it's the discrepancy between rated/battery degradation and actual. Coming from a 2016 truck I could go two weeks driving 30 miles a day before filling up. Everyone knows trucks aren't the best on mpg and I think my average was 14mpg. My 2019 model 3 that I just...
