Hey guys I also have a very strange question for you and maybe need some expert help if anyone of you guys has encountered this issue?
I have a very steep curve entrance into my parking space, I'm just wondering if it is safe to drive a Tesla over this kind of steep lump in my parking space? I purchased the smart air suspension so I guess I have extra height and it should be ok, but I'm just paranoid to damage the underneath of the batterys or get stuck on the hump.
I only worry because the Tesla has a long wheel base, I worry when trying to get over this steep short lump in the road, it can touch the bottom of the car? (It's really steep I'm not being paranoid and first time I navigated my car park I worried my BMW 118i may die on it but it can clear it without hitting it)
I noticed that there is quite a large BMW 740li parked next to me which seems a similar height and wheel base to the Model S and is not stuck on this hump so that is reassuring, I only don't know if this ride height is taller than Model S or that their wheels are closer together meaning they can get over this steep lump better? Do you know how I can check this because Ideally I want to keep my parking space if possible as its next to my apartment and so cheap compared to other spaces around the area!
Thanks for your help on this.
