    How to Remove HOV sticker?

    I accidentally placed the California small HOV sticker on my front bumper instead of my rear bumper. Any tips on how to remove it from the front bumper? It's my understanding that it is designed so that when you take it off, you can't take it off in one piece so I'll call the DMV tomorrow to...

    Instead of carrying separate charging cards for charge point, blink, evgo, etc, is there a single card available that can access multiple networks? I know the EZ charge card does that but I don't thinks it's available to Tesla owners.

    I've noticed that when using the Tesla App, there are times when it shows me the interior temp of the car, while other times it does not show it. Why is that? Can I set it up so that it always shows me the temp when I'm using the app?

    I received an alert on the Tesla App indicating that a software update is available. Anyone know what it is? If I didn't have a super important meeting tomorrow morning, I would download it and see what it is, but I don't want to take any chances that it will affect my ability to get where I...

    I have set up my UMC such that it remains plugged into the NEMA 14-50 outlet at all times. Will leaving it plugged into the outlet for extended periods of times (like months at a time without removing it) cause damage to the UMC or some sort of degradation of the UMC's output? Should I give...

    Touchless Car Wash that Drags Car - Is that okay?

    Is it okay to get the Model S washed at a touchless car wash that drags the car though? I know the hand wash is preferable, but I prefer the touchless machine car washes because they're so much quicker -- in and out in a couple of minutes. Do I need to put the car in a certain mode? And is...

    Where do you mount your transponder to use the metro express lanes on the 10 or 110 freeways? I put it on the dashboard (haven't mounted it yet) yesterday and noticed that the transponder didn't beep where it should have, like in my other car (non-Tesla).

    Is the installation of a NEMA 14-50 outlet pretty standard work for an electrician, or is that an outlet primarily specific to charging cars? Is it something that any licensed electrician should be able to do, or should I go with an electrician that has worked with installing outlets...
