As the title explains, I’m thinking about converting my NEMA 14-50 socket that I‘ve been using with the mobile connector for the last 5 years to a Tesla Universal Connector. The hard part was done 5 years ago with the conduit/wire run and breaker work. Seems like the work needed would be...

I was renewing my Alabama Power rate rider for EV charging between 9pm-6am (1.7 cents per KWhour discount for the whole house), every little bit helps, right? I noticed that AP provides up to a $500 rebate for the install of a home level 2 charger. Here is the link: EV Home Charger Rebate The...

I’ve been interested in the upcoming Semi release on December 1st. I just found this link to California programs designed to help the California fleet operator: https://static.business.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/CA-Trucking-Incentive-Guide.pdf Sure looks like a small fleet operator...

I’ve been thinking about how the Tesla Network might be initially rolled out. When Tesla first started leasing the Model 3, there were concerns at the time that demand had dropped and the leasing program was needed to shore up sales/revenue. I think it was in a quarterly announcement that Elon...

During today’s Q2 earnings call, Elon mentioned several times how the new 4D version of FSD is a profound improvement over the current 2.5D stack. He he a damn good salesman and has me convinced. It will be interesting to see what Tesla can achieve in the next 6 - 12 months.

Just upgraded my M3 with v2.5 hardware to 40.50 and seems that voice commands have stopped all together. The green prompt displays but does not ‘pulse’ when I say my command. I also tried a reboot with no improvement. Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm wondering what the typical wait time is from wired funds confirmation to when the account reflects that the payment has been applied to your balance (or somehow shows official receipt by Tesla). My funds were transferred first thing this morning and I provided the confirmation # to my ISA...

Here's some photos taken this afternoon (Sunday, June 24th). I believe this rail hub acts as the drop off point for cars distributed throughout the Southeast. Even though it was Sunday, 2 car haulers were loading up. There look to be a couple of hundred Tesla's in this lot, but there is...

I've been thinking about how and when the Tesla Network might debut. A lot of people seem to think the Tesla Network wont appear until full autonomy is achieved. I think it will arrive much earlier and I really think the Tesla Network will differentiate Tesla vs. competitors as much as the...

I live in one of the most regressive states (Alabama) in the US when it comes to solar power. The net metering is only at the wholesale price which is about 1/3 the residential rate of ~ $ .095 kWh. There is also a fee of $5 per installed solar kWh per month to be connected to the grid as a...

With Tesla setting the expectation that full autonomy will be running on Tesla vehicles sometime next year, where does that put all the other players? In August 2016, Ford was talking about a 2021 target for autonomous driving. GM is planning on releasing it's Super Cruise feature that looks...

The typical new car loses 30% of its value after 2 years, 50% after 4 years. With the M3 having the capability for full autonomous driving, and the ability to actually offset the cost of ownership via the Tesla Network, what would be expected for depreciation? I would think the demand for used...
