I guess it looks like the voting map is even more outdated as it doesn't have the Temple Bucees as a location.

I wonder why this site isn't shown as "Coming Soon" on the Tesla Supercharger locator. Maybe because it's a hosted install and not a Tesla planned location? I also think there is enough distance between Bucees and Market Heights -- especially being on two different highways. There is only 27...

Could the duration of this "calculating" period be indicative of the degree of variations in the cells or possibly just the quantity of cells that vary? Wondering if it would be beneficial to track the time it sits charging at the top as an indication of health of the pack or just the "sway"...

This makes more sense than Tesla’s response. So why did it not recalculate the expected range since I technically drove for 6 miles with it continuing to display 209 miles? Would think that it should have added in those unbalanced cells that were brought up and displayed 215 mi range.

Curious then if it was balancing the cells that 20-30min I was waiting, why did the range not go up after I stopped the charge session? Just sat at 209mi the whole time I was waiting.

How long is it safe to leave it plugged in for this process? Would this not also happen when AC charging to 100%?

I’ve taken our 2018 75D MX to fourteen Supercharger visits since taking possession. On a couple of these sessions I have actually charged up to 100% due to range or timing reasons. I understand 100% on DCFC is not optimal, but I have noticed an interesting issue. Both times I’ve attempted a...

I retract my previous statement about the fixed-in-place requirement as I was looking at the 2020 Code and not 2023. Not sure I agree with that as potentially anything with say a 14-50 plug can be connected to the circuit and not abide by the EMS shared load maximums, but code is constantly...

I don't think it's trying to imply that they can be on the same circuit, I just think they did a poor execution in stating a case where they might be on different SIZED breakers (i.e. one on a 60A and another on a 40A) since this is describing how one would need to go into each HPWC and set the...

Interesting to see this as I am having reduced charging issues with my Gen2 plug-in HPWC. They told me the thermal issue is a common issue with the plug-in ones and I could either get a Gen3 hardwired or the Corded Mobile Connector as a replacement. I’m leaning towards the Gen3 for 48A vs 40A...

Mind passing on the info for others who want to speak out?

This is the perfect reason for a factory to be built. If it can be proven that a like Texas can open up to EVs enough for them to Be built on Oil-laden ground then that would be a huge win for the progression to sustainability. I think there are a couple other reasons Texas is being looked...

So I tried alcohol wipes, WD40, magic eraser and none of those hardly made a difference. Looked online for other tips for ink stains and found one talking about spray-on sun screen for blue ink on a white couch. I will start by saying to make sure you rub VERY gently if you have to go this...

Installing now on my 2018 HW2.5 MX

Oh don’t think this is anywhere near what historically the car has done the last 10 months we’ve had it. The car says we are averaging ~340Wh/mi lifetime, but when I actually calculate the mileage we are averaging closer to 440Wh/mi and average about 120 miles using 90%-10% of the 75kW battery.

Took a trip down to Downtown Austin - a 150mi round trip with about 160mi starting range - and wanted to see how efficient I could go to try and prevent SC’ing. On the trip down I was able to get a 30mi average down to 225Wh/mi with total trip at 281Wh/mi by drafting behind a semi for a good...

@VikH I would assume that it will be tough to get this under a warranty claim as the strength of the wind is kind of an undocumented variable. At some point they will say it’s outside of the engineered design. With that said I have not had another vehicle do this, but again claiming it didn’t...

@Aljohn agreed, but the self presenting door does throw a wrench into the mix since hands are not needed to open/hold onto the door in the first place.

Update on my post — After seeing mixed reviews for Service King, I ended up filing a claim with my insurance and they pretty much said I could take it wherever. So, my neighbor had just got into an accident in his MS and referred me to Autocraft Bodywerks down in Austin as they are supposed to...

Tesla text me back and said I will need to take it to one of their certified body shops as major alignment of the door will need to be performed. Any of you guys in Texas gone to the Service King locations for body work?

Interesting to see the number of people who share my thought on avoiding insurance To update the story, I went ahead and requested a collision service appt through the Tesla app. Next available slot is the 24th at the Austin center...so when I sent them pictures I requested if they could at...

I had a storm cell creep up on me last night while I was making a quick pit stop and this happened. The door cracked open as I walked up and before I could reach out to grab it the wind flung it open and immediately I heard the crunch of metal as it hit the door stops. As you can tell from the...

Thank you, I found PlugShare already from the same Google search results that lead me to this thread. You yourself mentioned other chargers, but I guess that advice only goes one way. I would hate to see what you guys do when someone is actually trolling.

I called out Sugarberry because the other two are J1772 not Tesla and I wasn’t the first one to mention something other than a Supercharger so figured I would mention it for others who stumbled upon this post while searching for destination chargers in Fredericksburg like I did. Wish you best...

Correct, that’s how I found it as I will be taking a trip there this weekend. Just figured it wasn’t mentioned in this thread yet so wanted to put it out there as it appears to be the only actual Tesla charger close to the main drag.

Not a supercharger, but found a Tesla charger at a BnB just off Austin St. This is according to their Trip Advisor: Sugarberry Inn is a 100% non-smoking property; we do not accept pets or children under 16. Now offering breakfast on-site every day and a Tesla charging station (for guests of...

I did order the 75, but only have the 6-month supercharging not the lifetime, so not sure what that is worth. I would have to drive out of town to access one anyway so not a big benefit for me especially if the 6-months starts when it’s delivered. Interesting to know that you can change orders...

I don’t have any deleted options on my order. White one white with 6 seats and standard wheels. My price difference only came out to $800 cheaper since I forgot to add the dest/doc fees to the configurator price, so decided to keep my reservation vs potentially loosing out on the tax...

When I referred to the Model 3 “free” $5k Performance Upgrade Package and Elon’s response for crediting or giving lifetime supercharging this is what was said: “You are correct, Elon did announce that Tesla would price match the recent Model 3 price changes. In this case, we have received...

My FUD comment was ranting about overall media and not directly at CR. I may have received some bad info on the CR reliability rants, but historically their reliability scores are based on prior not current year model data so that would skew results to the early years where they were still...

My DS will be out until Tuesday, so haven’t heard from her end, but here is what my AGM had to say: “If you wish to proceed with a new order and be locked into the new pricebook, we can cancel your current order and move your $2,500 order deposit to a new RN#. This will start the entire...

From what I heard the CR report covered issues that have been resolved for a while now like the Falcon wing doors. Like someone else said if you look at their symbol of reliability then you will be living in a vehicle that hasn’t evolved in decades. Tesla is still a car company in its infancy...

Same here! Love black wheels on the white but wasn’t sure about running 22” as a daily, so looking at picking up some 20” black turbines from T Sportline.

Because this decrease in price is like having any other vehicle built and new incentives come out before you take delivery/sign papers.

I ordered a 75D with white interior a month ago and still waiting for it to start production. With that said I found out Tesla made some price changes to the S and X today: First of all the base prices of the base versions of Model S and Model X saw an increase while the price of the 100D...
