    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Beyond worthless. 109 random respondents that might not even own TSLA. Talk about begging for clicks…. Glass Lewis, CALPERS, ISS - I’m betting they have more sway than 109 MS survey folks.

    Recency bias. You don’t have to look back very far at all to see that NVDA was down 50% in 2022.

    Minor accident using autopilot

    You hit a boulder on the left side? Was this a one way street or were you in the left lane with a median on your left? I always feel like AP hugs the right side of the lane.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    lol whatever. Not sure why you would say that just because someone disagrees with you. You act as if there isn’t a very large faction of investors who will vote no, and plenty of institutional consultants advising a no vote. If the package was anywhere close to sane it wouldn’t be an issue at...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Hey - I found another one who thinks they are smarter than everyone else and only their opinion can be correct! No chance I read all the proposals and considered each one before voting - that would take the intelligence of a Lover of Tesla. 🙄

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    It’s not because of what the CEO did, it’s that the board is not independent by any stretch. I am a decent sized shareholder (for my net worth) I’m bullish on the stock, and I bought more this morning. Doesn’t mean I have to vote yes on everything the company wants, does it? Not sure how...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Don’t care about the tour, do care about the CEO apparently blackmailing the shareholders by saying he’ll take his ball and go home if he doesn’t get 25% of the voting shares. We already have a part time leader at Tesla - I happen to think the board does not do it’s fiduciary duty by just...

    Turn Signal Auto Cancel on 2024.14.7?

    I think this release includes a chime warning for speed cameras. You can turn it off in Navigation>Speed Camera Chime. Not sure if that is what it is but maybe?

    Tesla added QuickSilver to the S/X order page last night

    I would prefer stalks but not having them did not dissuade me from buying. I think it is a solution looking for a problem, but I adapted pretty quick. I do hit the horn or the wipers pretty frequently when turning and then have to pretend like I meant to do it. 😜

    Vendor 🚀GIVEAWAY! Teslaunch New Model S Sunshade Product Drop: Join Our Test Program

    Well, I pulled mine out of the package yesterday and tried to install - not even close to the correct measurements. I would call this a total fail. If the intent was to send to some users for free, have them get all excited and post about it - the opposite happened. Two shipments, two abject...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    That’s standard and is just on/off for the soft white lighting around the car. The new ambient lighting (that doesn’t exist for the S) is color-controllable and lines a lot of the trim inside.

    Are the calipers red on my 22 Plaid? I’ve never taken off the aero covers on the Tempest wheels - am I about to be excited? 😜

    Looks fantastic - congrats. Man that color looks deeeeeeeep! Are red calipers an option or is it part of a package (track?), or did you have them painted?

    Terrible service experience, why my 2023 Model S is a regrettable purchase

    Circling the drain = the most valuable car company on earth 🙄. Those of us with zero problems feel bad for you but don’t need you saving us from Tesla. I’ve had 3 BMWs (I’m a slow learner as they were terrible - never again) and plenty of other cars - super happy with my Plaid and don’t think...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    I got that update last night and then my app told me to upgrade the phone key when I was close to the car. I also went in under the Locks screen and turned on the hands free trunk - tested and works with a few beeps to let you know it’s about to open.

    Elon Musk Discussion - Tesla Brand Damage

    He did - after the first round of funding for Xai it is valued at $16 billion. Let’s see how many AI engineers get recruited away from Tesla for this new company, especially if the pay package fails the shareholder vote.

    Turn Signal Auto Cancel on 2024.14.7?

    I just went down to check on my car - it’s where I thought it was, but I doubt it has anything to do with your issue. It is for park assist, which I didn’t remember.

    Less than the price of one tire. The TPMS probably cost that much!

    Tesla Partnership with Buc-ee's (26 New Locations)

    I just stopped there this week and asked - they are def coming, the manager just wasn’t sure exactly when. Instead I stopped for a quick top off in Abbott and then hit the Buc-ee’s in Temple.

    what was the indicated battery range on a new plaid - trying to understand battery wear without ODB access

    My 22 Plaid was rated 396 miles on 19” wheels when new - after 25k miles I see about 375 when charged to 100%. I don’t actually get that because I drive too fast all the time - I get around 300 on regular basis.

    Best wheels for Plaid?

    Okay but that isn’t a square setup - I’m trying to figure out what width all 4 wheels should be and they all need to be the same. Would I go with 4 at 10.5?

    Vendor 🚀GIVEAWAY! Teslaunch New Model S Sunshade Product Drop: Join Our Test Program

    Oof - I haven’t received my replacement yet but that is no bueno at all - seems like after the reports of the first ones not fitting the team would make sure to take some measurements….. It figures the first time I win anything it doesn’t work out 😜

    Model S pulling to the left post collision

    I think shops who do bad alignments like to use that myth to excuse why they can never get the car to track straight. I’ve heard every excuse - road crowns left, road crowns right, safety issues, water drainage….all BS.

    Best wheels for Plaid?

    Looks great - what is the “standard” square setup for a 22 Plaid S as far as width - I see 9.5, 10, and 10.5 listed in this thread. Right now I have OEM Tempest 19s and would be interested in some of these wheels in a square setup so I can rotate the tires.

    Elon take that strike back.

    I’ve had my first and only strike stick around since the beginning of April when I had no idea what the heck all the FSD trial stuff even meant. It def has not disappeared after 30 days.

    Supercharger - Temple, TX

    Tesla was doing maintenance there on the regular cabinets last week so I stopped and talked to the guy about all the recent news - he said Tesla Energy has been doing all the work on the SCs and while the layoff stinks it didn’t affect him at all. He said they’re still as busy as ever with...

    Buying used Tesla out of state. How do I supercharge on the way home?

    I did the same thing and it took about 3 minutes for the car to show up in my account on the app - was able to supercharge right away.

    Slacker Questions

    Hi all - question on using Slacker in my S. Why does it always restart the song or comedy routine that was last playing when I got out of the car? How am I supposed to listen to podcasts if it starts over at the beginning every time I get in the car again? It’s super annoying when I get in...

    Is it time to dump and run?

    Lucid sold 9k cars all last year, and are tracking to sell less this year (until Gravity launch - maybe?) Cybertruck has a years-long waiting list, so not sure your comments have much credibility there. I never defend Elon because I believe the opposite of him in many cases, but my Tesla car...

    Crack on the glass roof - not repairable

    I’d push back on that - it should cover all glass, not just the windshield. Unless it is stated somewhere that the glass roof is not covered - I specifically asked about it as I was considering a Lucid Air with the glass canopy in addition to my S with the panoramic roof.

    Crack on the glass roof - not repairable

    I have Progressive and I have added zero deductible glass coverage for a few extra bucks a month. It comes in real handy for stuff like this, so it would be worthwhile to look into it for next time. I’m surprised it’s only $1250 through Tesla.

    2023 Model S With Two Palm Sized Door Dents in Rear Passenger Door - Fix Advice

    Long distance weekly commute - Model S LR plus

    I have a 22 Plaid on 19” wheels that was originally rated for 396 miles. Almost every week I drive 300+ miles each way around Texas, and it has been a breeze. There are enough SC stations on all my routes, and I have a tiny bladder, so I would be stopping anyway. I do have a charger installed...

    Wiki Model S Delivery Update

    Well said - another variable is also the local Porsche dealership experience. Some locations are great, some stink. For me, the build quality etc can’t overcome the range issue. I own 2 other Porsches so I’m def a fan, but I honestly never even considered the Taycan because of the cost and...

    If you have a staggered setup and your shop is rotating front to back, you need to find a new shop.
