I would like to consider getting an electric van because it's the only way I could practically have a vehicle that can carry a bike. I'm kind of tired of not being able to take my bikes or scooters to other places. The Model Y can fit a normal E-scooter but tons of space is gone once you put...

When I'm on the freeway, the Full Self Driving keeps wanting to change lanes for no valid reason. It almost feels to the point that it's going to piss off other drivers thinking I'm the one who decided to change lanes all the time but don't realize it's the autopilot doing it. I like to just...

Is comparing differnent sources of energy for car fuel kind of hard to do? Seems the three variables for gas in USA is price per gallon, MPGs of car, fuel capacity? But if it's an EV, it's price per Kwh, miles per Kwh, battery capacity? EV it seems it's cheaper per unit of energy, but it...

A Rivian owner bought my Tesla adapter for $30 on Offer Up. Can a Rivian use a Tesla adapter? Or maybe he owns a Tesla but drove the Rivian? My post said I would accept trades but he just gave me the full asking price. And he drove an hour from San Bernadino to Irvine to get it which is...

The Google Nest is discounted from 65k tickets to 16k tickets so it's like 75% off, or valued at $50 in D&B normal ticket value. Yes D&B will be the winners in the long run. Which is why they let me win off them and they will have enough casual customers to make their money back.

Came back from the eclipse here is a short I posted. There was no major traffic at all.

I went to the Very Large Array in a Lexus GX while on the way to Arkansas for an eclipse road trip. But I didn't really want to go, my dad really wanted to go even though it's 2 hours out of the way from Flagstaff AZ to Albuquerque NM. I felt the Grand Canyon was more worth it, it's easier to...

Also there are signs of cloudy days in Texas as of Monday 4/1. But I don't know how cloudy weather is predicted because it said data becomes more accurate when it gets closer to the day. Haven't planned anything yet. Last time it was cloudy in 2017 Oregon but got lucky and the sky cleared...

Also I want to find every Dave and Busters that could have supercharging nearby or L2 charging. Will most likely stop in Phoenix, El Paso, then Dallas. Because I can buy food with tickets which at my rate I can win a $15 entree for around $3. Which then can offset the cost of surcharge if I...

I'm debating on doing this trip with the Tesla. South CA to Dallas My dad wants to pass by Very Large Array, but it's in the middle of nowhere. And the Tesla supercharging map (for charging) is rerouting to a less desirable route that is backtracking. Like trying to go to the nearest...

So the unit is KG? It’s expensive per one unit but needs less units. But in the end still seems more expensive to use compared to gas or electric. After realizing it’s a cheap car but expensive fuel, I had to evaluate the situation. And I do drive about 25k year. I have 27k on the Model Y...

So what does that mean? Like I would have to stay only in CA to have a reliable way to use it? And only stay in metropolitan areas like LA or Bay Area? If I was only reselling PS5 I think this could be a good option. I did ask my friend he said he can’t afford a car, I thought he could be a...

I am debating if I should get tire socks or chains for snowboarding. Mainly Mammoth or Big Bear because the website says they can check chains but I don't know how strict they are about it. I rather just not put on chains if I don't have to. I went to Mammoth when it said chains may be...

Has anyone considered buying a used Hydrogen car? They're very cheap and you can buy a used one that's like 2-5 years old for about $7500 at the very lowest. Is there a reason why they are so cheap? I heard Shell is getting rid of hydrogen stations or maybe it's hard to find a hydrogen...

I'm just wondering how can these billion dollar companies make so much money with slim profit margins? Like a normal person may go do their 9-5 job, they spend $10-$20 on gas or electricity, they make $150-$200 day before or after tax so they at least 15x their money if they paid $10 for gas...

How do you pay for Chargepoint when you have to pay for it? I went to Las Vegas Dave and Busters and that chargepoint used to be free but it is not anymore, it said $2 per 1 hour I believe. But I checked my app to see how many Kwh it gave the car and it was around 32c per Kwh which is okay to...

I don’t know if we are friends or business partners. The kids at John’s Incredible Pizza asked if that was my partner because they saw both of us winning jackpots. We probably hang out because we both have the same goal of winning arcade tickets at a profit and this is a very niche thing I...

My arcade friend disagrees with me and Tesla drivers in general using autopilot. He calls them all bad drivers because they want the car to do everything for us and control our lives. But the Tesla may be the only reason I don't care to drive 1+ hour because I have this assurance that...

This would have been a hack to watch YouTube while driving. I mean I just put the YouTube screen to the side so I'm not distracted and when the traffic is cleared and autopilot engaged I just glance to the passenger side. But maybe I won't do it, it does sound dangerous, but what laws are they...

What does that mean, like you ran out of battery with no charging options available? Thankfully that has never happened to me of owning a Tesla since Jan 2019. I live in Southern CA and I have only traveled to places that are within a one day commute and stayed in that area. Phoenix AZ is...

Is there any possibility of Apple implementing Apple Vision Pro with Tesla self driving? I think one start could be finding a way to turn blind spots like when you look down viewable from the Apple Vision Pro with exterior cameras. Or have HUD and markers like of other cars outlined in red so...

If there were electric planes I wouldn't mind living next to an airport. But would that mean prices near airports will go up because it won't be seen as a bad thing? I would consider living next to an airport like a good thing because you could just be 1 mile away from the airport and just...

An article said Tesla bought a Honda Civic to tear apart to look how cheap cars are made. Is $20k for cars cheap? What is cheap though mean, my arcade friend is still paying off his Honda Civic and reselling arcade prizes is his main source of income. I am wondering if I could afford a...

I checked used BMW i8 and alot of 2015-2016 BMW i8 can be bought for around $50k-60k. Almost as much as a brand new Tesla but be more unique. I feel it's cheaper than buying a Ferrari for $300k but it can still deliver the same wow factor of an exotic for so cheap. Especially if you want to...

How does the new autopilot update know if I'm not looking at the road or use my phone? Or even just looking at the GPS screen. I saw there is a camera on the top of the window where the mirror is. If I put tape over it will it disable the ability for autopilot to spy on me? Like how does it...

Will the Tesla semi supercharge at the normal Tesla superchargers intended for normal commuter cars? How will it wait in line if it has a trailer attached? During peak hours. Will the truck have to take up all the superchargers just to charge one truck with a trailer attached? Or will it...

I just got this exact one on offer up for $40. Guy lived 1 mi from my house and he brought it over, showed me how to use it. Just said use a towel to protect the paint.

The pictures are mostly truck with truck beds. How does the ramp attach to the ground and the car? Can it fall off or does it use rubber pads to grip?

I want to find a way to be able to take my Segway GT1 which is a super scooter. It's massive and it's about 100 pounds. I can lift it into the car and it will fit, but it's not easy to do it all the time. But I'm willing to do it sometimes so I can take this scooter to places like the beach...

Ya I agree, but my E-scooter hack has been working out so well for me to never pay $50 for parking. I do this all the time for Sofi stadium, especially the city made a bunch of new rules making once walkable free parking non existent now. If you park 1.5 miles away from Sofi stadium you will...

Well there isn't really much to brag about the arcade. My friends who attempt to resell arcade prizes as their main source of income aren't rich and probably won't be able to afford a Tesla. One guy can't afford a car and will be taking PS5s on the bus/train that he won for $100-150 and try...

I figured out free parking in Las Vegas and everywhere else. I park at a free parking hotel the Venetian and ride my E-scooter to the hotel I'm staying usually Ballys, Paris, PH. Then charge my Tesla for free if charging was available. But Venitian isn't free anymore so it's probably going to...

Well it was my own room in a house. I always looked for shared places but my own room since I was open to meeting new people. The $1200 month is referring to Orange County because 3 times I rented it was all around $1200 and this was in 2016-2018 until my parents bought me my house. Some...

How much Tesla stock would someone need to buy to make $50 hour or $100k year? I don't know how much time you must be willing to wait it out, but is 10 years a reasonable amount of time to make $50 hour on average accounting for all bull and bear market situations? At some arcades I could make...

My arcade friend and my parents doubt owning an EV I believe is the hassle of charging. And I also refuse to sit in my car to charge because it feels like I'm wasting my time to get cheaper energy than gas. My arcade friend thinks his time is so valuable but all he does is resell arcade prizes...

It's more about the idea that if I get a $40 Nintendo Switch game, I am likely to get my exact money back when I go to resell it to someone else. There has to be that one person who takes the $20 hit to their net worth for this $40 NIntendo Switch game to exist. But I'm not an e-gamer that...

Is there a way to figure out if it's worth going out of your way for an Offer Up transaction where the seller or buyer asks you to come to them? How do you factor in the energy cost and cost of ownership? Tesla always has these banners telling about cost of ownership and it says 43c mile on...

What would that mean? Like you could travel from OC to Phoenix with no supercharging? That trips usually needs 2-3 supercharging stops. I should be 2 full charges but there is one part of the trip where I believe has a huge gap so you're forced into an extra supercharging to top off for that...

Advantage Playing at the arcades and winning all the prizes. Then charging for free at Dave and Busters.

The Tesla Model Y Performance costed about $70k total after all fees, the only upgrade was the $6000 autopilot. In March 2023 when they had that big discount earlier January 2023. The only thing I don't like buying new is the idea that it's not going to be new forever, and that pressure...

I kind of wish there was a Model 3 hatchback. So I can keep the sedan shape and still have storage for my arcade prizes or E-scooter. But having a Model Y is nice for road trips, especially arcade trips when I have boxes of plush to bring back. My friend redeems alot, it be nice if I could...

I checked my banking statement and So Cal Edison is on autopay. And this time I checked it was $344.35 on November 20, 2023. Should autopay be paying off 1 months statement each time? Would my Tesla most likely be the most expensive electronic consuming most of the energy contributing to...

Main reason I ask is because when we bought the Tesla Model Y, parents immediately wanted to get rid of the Model 3 / sell it. I wanted to keep it and have two cars for a little bit, maybe a few months, but they said if I were to do that, the value will go down. The Model 3 value was still...

The 2018 Tesla Model 3 was sold to CarMax around March 2023 for $23500. So what happened after that who will justify buying a used Tesla Model 3 with 100k miles. Is 100k miles like alot for a car when buying used? I always had this idea that if I spill Starbucks in my car, that it's not a new...

Is there any way to justify one person to own 2 cars at once. Not like a family or couple who owns 2 cars total, but just one person who owns two cars. I know Dan Brazilian owns alot of cars and he is an example of someone who owns too many cars for one person to handle. So he said something...

I guess get fully charged up the night before probably be the easiest to be ready the next day, so you can drive 50+ miles last minute if clouds appear. Take advantage of lower supercharging rates & low crowds at 12am. I hope there isn't a huge amount of Teslas thinking the same thing at 12am...

Does it make sense that people who are engineers and are good at developing automation have the chance to make more money than someone who does a job that needs 1 human to do that job? I'm just wondering what are the pros / cons / struggles / benefits if you go this route of developing AI /...

Is there are such a classification of people that hate robots / AI nearly the same way people can hate on a certain race. I know someone that always hating anything that's autonomous or is a robot. We were in LA and he saw one of those food delivery robots and he started saying like, "those...

It's possible he has a popular YouTube channel. But YouTube is very hard to make money from, it's just a hobby for most people, especially my arcade friends who like doing YouTube. They both have 5000 followers, but one admits he would never quit his normal job and does it as a hobby that...

Is Audi doing a major discount on E-trons GTs right now? I've started seeing them as often as a new Corvette Stingray. It looks like an exotic car but I don't know if it's really considered an exotic car, it seems more like a reasonably prices nice sports car. But I still like the car and...
