    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    You’re correct. I totally missed the ‘congested’ part in our email. Thought it was a slightly different charge, congested or not. Oops, nothing new…We’ve been advised to only charge to 80%.

    Caltrans fleet Tesla & maybe other state or ‘fleet’ teslas(not sure there. Why I said ‘ours’) There is no such thing as free supercharging. This is independent of SC utilization% and always 1$/min over 90% for our vehicles

    Supercharger - Fort Bragg, CA (LIVE 21 May 2021, 12 stalls)

    There is a shell charger in south leggett and one in Miranda + chargepoint at the Benbow inn. I really like Branscomb road if you’re into windy roads& you can do the loop up 1 to the parks etc, down 101 to Laytonville SC then over to the coast near union landing 👌

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    In addition to others using & paying for Tesla chargers, our fleet vehicles have a newer charge of 1$ per minute when charging over 90%. Not huge but it all adds up 🤑

    The quest for wider wheels and tires, 295, 305 and beyond...

    18”X11” +25 with 315 Nfera5 . 15mm spacers on hypergrams seems to fit. I was gonna add 1/4 panels before driving but test fit one and it had plenty of inside clearance. Outside almost seemed like it could work as is🤔 18”X11” +40 w/315 is great in the rear

    Tuesday…& squeeze up or down? Monday may be up big & Tuesday down even more. For those max pain charts. Each option shown has a buy and sell associated with the volumes, correct? Only the early OI post shows what exactly happened the day before. Maybe someone can correct this if not the case

    I reported that one & account. Seen crap from that one too much with garbage like that. The stuff that you tube bans but allows this trash !? Like Farcebook

    Are all of the ‘competitors’ making profits on their EV cars now?

    have we hit lower support yet? Isn’t it just a bit over 230 and then positive news is allowed @Artful Dodger. This is sort of how it works, right?

    Founders only comes with white interior! That’s enough to make a lot of people wait, right? White in a truck, wtf I think that is how they are tempering these foundation orders a bit

    Autocross- SCCA EV-X Class vs. SS

    Our asphalt is pretty bad so that gives me a bonus w/ awd, I ran at thunder hill auto x once and won SS. Medford and hillclimbs in Oregon is the most I travel usually. Always have top pax in hill climbs but that doesn’t really matter.

    Autocross- SCCA EV-X Class vs. SS

    Still a bit low imo but I’ve just dominated in pax even on 615k tires. I’ve ran ASP on street tires to make it closer. Thinking SSP this year so it’s competitive

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    TeslaFi for the recent data and visible Tesla for the older

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I agree but technically ( & I just learned this recently!!?) the 12 days of Christmas starts after Xmas. So Tesla will need to step it up after lodger’s done

    But they still don’t get how early in Tesla’s game we are!? It’s like a 2 yr old kid compared to auto industry or the other industries they are also in, which are quite a lot!

    Anyone else getting a starship torch this week? Seems like an odd time for the delivery of them to be planned? I never got short shorts to burn and have no marshmallows Also, Is star link coming standard on CTs? Seems it would be nice to have on something like this, I must have missed discussion...

    Data from Run On Less event

    @MP3Mike so are they using EV data from all of the fleets including other vehicles not shown in this event for totals? The number doesn’t make sense

    Data from Run On Less event

    Pespsi Tesla trucks had pretty high miles Wednesday - 841, 726 & 826 miles for the 3 trucks. 10 companies participating, most using just 2 vehicles. None have gone nearly as far as the Tesla semis on any given day except Sunday Currently the programs says 249k electric miles since day 1...

    FYI Articles are written by people like ‘us’ for teslarati. Proofreading and fact checking is on the author. I made 2 stories long ago( Autocross & the Nvx sub for old model S). things may have changed a bit but it was just articles from tesla fans mostly

    Data from Run On Less event

    Would be nice to see trip maps, maybe elevation data too? I’d assume all of these vehicles should map that stuff like the Teslas

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    2014 - 10%SOC (28mi) - 84%(223mi) 47 minutes 2023 - 9%SOC (23mi) - 78%(189mi) 57 minutes (was only 37F out for this data) didn't find any 90kW only SC data. car is at 107k mi now . I've never cleaned any radiators & AC does not work at all currently. raced the car in autocross for 7 years...

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    I’ll check, I’ve got a few old visible tesla curves and newer TeslaFi stuff. My back is also a rev B, got it when they were doing all of the old the contactors in early 2014. Charging is definitely slower especially as the temperature heats up

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    I have 12MW of DC charging on my ‘12 P85. Hits much higher kW on a SC than when new(135or so) but does taper to~109 kW+SOC, new peaked close to 130 tapering to 118 at 50% slowly down to 109. @David29 70s always had lower charge speed, probably doing the same rate per battery size though

    Kubrick? But off the topic, is anyone considering the roadster may be coming soonish? + other new unseen vehicles. It’s been a really long time since anything was shown off. Last was Optimus? I have a feeling there may be more than highland and cybertruck in September

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    ‘free’ and when the SCs have enough mega packs & solar Tesla will be making money off all the OEMs….when they actually make some vehicles. I’d imagine there is a plan for AI

    Cannot disable Lane Departure avoidance

    So, this has been the case for a while now on 11.4.4. lane departure is off, warnings are off too - the 3 still tries to correct (+ has warning noises) & into the wrong area sometimes! My car will try and correct on a turn sometimes and even attempt to straddle a center yellow line a bit using...

    M3P - Who switched from a (true) sports car?

    For how much the car weighs it handles great though. Definitely need good coils and tires. It slays at Autocross and hill climbs + bracket racing and drives itself…4 tricks at least. I haven’t been beaten by a sports car ever on a hill climb, only given up king to built race cars

    Thanks 😂I think I needed coffee! Obviously can’t read, 1.5M in 3 years still seems ambitious seeing what they’ve managed so far and what others have done in 3 years. The funny line is that they will make a new electric vehicle to rival a Tesla model 🤔 just one?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Is Panasonic supplying Toyota? I can’t imagine how Toyota plans 1.5M 15M EVs in 3 years!? ..per ‘the street’ article a few hrs ago. That number seems absurd unless they are making razor EV scooters or something small Toyota is ambitious based on where they are today in EV volume. That’s...

    10 years ago Tesla was fighting a bigger battle of FUD!? They had less advantages, suppliers laughed and they had to make their own supply chains. EVs were just niche and not gonna be around for long in most imbecilic opinions. The center touch screen was a big bad thing back then -now...

    Poll - Investor Day Bingo

    roadster production timeline & release candidate? Elon did say ideally 9 months from announcement of anything new until production/ when a customer could get one, like a human. this was when people(analysts?) were asking for a 'robotaxi' or new vehicle announcement (begging of last year I...

    That is how the boombox while driving recall was, Tesla argued that they followed all the rules for a while but NHTSA pestered them enough that they voluntarily did a recall on it. (I just got all communication between the 2 from NHTSA yesterday because i forgot it was a ‘voluntary recall’!)I...

    but my P came on 18"s ;P I’ve got 4 1-/2 sets of 18” now - quite a few 10.5” & pair of 11”+ smaller stuff. Rather have 18” than 19” all day. If they’d just make appropriate diameter sizes that’d be nice

    I was thinking of trying 275-18" Falken RT615K+ for Auto X. better reviews on tirerack than the 660s & only $237 My sur4g are basically slicks & slippery AF. Should be a rough weekend taking them to the cords 🤪 & it’s cold ( was a really nice $800 set!)

    That was my idea if I can afford it. Might need to wait a season though. Also need a different way to bring the wheels in that case. Doubt 2 315 fit as a passenger?

    295/315 A7 was a little quicker than square for some hill climbs. I was 2 seconds faster on the hill in my pic than on 295s and still really consistent across all runs.
