    Musk Teases Features of Tesla’s Version 10 Software

    Buttons back on top of the screen so that I don't have look away from the road to see them in my MX. Like it used to be.

    What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

    At least you can still say that you never gave in and bought an automatic!

    Why does Tesla install old software updates?

    According to teslafi some cars are still receiving the 2018.50.6 update as of today. This despite the update being about 3 months old and many newer updates have been released. AP level doesn't appear to be a factor. What gives? I haven't received an update myself for my MX AP1 since...

    Rear Facing Child Seats - Sacramento, CA

    I seem to remember that re-facing seats couldn't be installed after purchase. Something about the bumper needing to be reinforced for safety.

    How will Tesla demo FSD?

    Yep. Although the demo route was preset there were obviously many chances for a corner situation to develop. If a significant number of the audience members took a demo trip no doubt some of them would have encountered one. Tesla would have to have been fairly sure that the car could handle such...

    Impossibility of L5 using any level of new hardware

    Just a few years ago many people said that they would never use an Uber for many of these reasons, but now everybody does. Surely getting used to a driving in a robotaxi shouldn't be any harder.

    Unpopular Opinion: I love the bottom-half UI in V9

    Agree 100%. Putting small buttons on bottom of the MX screen is just a disaster waiting to happen. I wouldn't be surprised if it has already resulting in a few accidents.

    Why Tesla Will Fail

    Dodge did not survive. It went bankrupt and the left over parts where sold by the creditors to Fiat. I'm pretty sure it was because of your experience with the neon.

    Zextraterrestials S (tory)

    That sucks. Did the truck drive away? I had a similar thing happen to me a few months ago although the damage wasn't as nearly bad ($600).

    Very Inaccurate opinion piece in the Toronto Star.

    Complaining about subsidies for a $176k electric car is really no different than complaining that the ~$5,000,000 Koenigsegg gets to drive on the roads for free just like a Kia.

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    EVtripplanner gives you an estimated consumption over user defined routes and speeds. It was pretty spot on for the S but not it's constantly showing too little consumption for the X. (I've compared it with actual performance from teslafi) Interestingly the consumption predictor built into the...

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    It would be nice if Teslafi gave consumption across different speeds, but perhaps the consumption data isn't fine grained enough.

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    I was quite surprised by how much the range drops in heavy rain. I suspect it's the exact same for ICE cars but it's not as in your face.

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    Is this the model S? I should probably have made it much clearer that I'm really only thinking that there's an issue with the model X range. My model S (P85) was entirely able to get rated mileage under reasonable conditions.

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    Sure, but that should be entirely reflected in the rated Wh/mile. True, but you would think that sometimes that would mean that you could get more miles. EPA rated miles is supposed to cover a range of real world scenarios. 80% at 80+mph hour is pretty good and well within what was advertised...

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    Would I be correct in assuming that when averaging about 65mph on a highway you would achieve rated miles? I only get 85%-90% in that scenario when I really should be beating it. What I'm really trying to figure out here is whether this is something that needs to be looked at. I have just had...

    New Model S vs P3D+

    I suppose it depends on how many people you need to fit in your car and for how long.

    Rated Miles Vs Actual Miles Vs EVTripplanner

    Before owning a model X (2016 P90D (20's)) I owned a model S (2014) and found that on longer trips I was easily able to achieve the rated range if I didn't go above 75MPH or so. On the model X I am NEVER able to achieve the rated range. At the very best I can achieve 90% but more often I achieve...

    Have we all been played by Tesla?

    It would hardly be logical for Tesla to actively discriminate against long term reservation holders. Sure they may get to keep your $1000 free loan (Worth about $70 a year) for a bit longer but at the cost of you possibly canceling your order.

    New FWD switch design

    No doubt, but how about the ~$100 labor? Apparently the B-pillar trim has to be removed.

    Broken Falcon Door Button

    The button (or mini handle thingy) used to open the left falcon door popped out a bit and now the door can't be opened from the inside although it can still be closed. Has anybody else had this? Given the many times the handle is pulled on by kids I can imagine that they can break pretty...

    Three weeks and my biggest disapointment in the Model 3...

    @goodytx. Have you tried to drive a different M3?
  42. B

    I'm over the range anxiety....

    I find that the only time I get in trouble with charging to 100% is after a road trip when I forget to set the charge level back to 80%. Even after doing that a few times the battery has only lost something like 5 miles of range over 2 years.
