    Hello from the Dirty South!

    Beautiful ride, welcome to the forums!

    Road Trip - Model Y

    Actually, you can no longer switch the wipers off. I think you can still switch the high beams off though. Apparently the SEXY buttons will allow you to bypass the auto-wiper requirement.

    New Tesla owner with questions

    Assuming you're using the standard adapter, it can handle 120V on a 15A cicruit, which in reality means 12A which is 1.44 kW. The car may be rounding down. I'm not sure if the standard adapter on a 20A circuit will give you more, I've never been in a position to try.

    Road Trip - Model Y

    No, it is traffic-aware cruise control (TACC), which means the bloody wipers come on frequently when not needed, and I think the auto high-beams are activated too althouh that might just be for Autopilot. I have started logging bug reports every time the wipers come on when not needed, if they...

    Auto high beams still comically bad

    A cruise control that doesn't turn the windshield wipers on would be nice as well.

    Western Canada Superchargers

    The guy that owns Current also owns Tesla Parts, Accessories & Service | Parts & Service by Canada Electric Car Management, maybe you could leave him some feedback there.

    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    Not sure about expert, we get cold but lots of other places get more snow than us including parts of Colorado. In my experience you can't go wrong with Nokian tires, their WR all-weathers are great winter tires. I haven't tried the Hakkas but every review of those I have read has been...

    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    It's -40 here right now, or close enough to make no difference. Don't sweat it, the car will just use more energy per km/mile. Instant heat in the winter is one of the best things about EVs, turn the seat heaters and steering wheel heater on and you'll be nice and comfy.

    What’s your longest drive without charging?

    402 km (251 miles), with 4 people in the car. Don't remember the departing charge level, would have been 90-ish %, still had 10% left. Averaged a little over 100 km/h, trip was mostly at 110-115 km/h with a slower bit at the beginning and end.

    SLS - On the Scent of Inevitable Capitulation

    The comments I read from that article suggested that since the tankage was the main reason for the wet-dress, and they managed to fully tank, there would be little left that another WDR would reveal vs. just trying to launch. Any issues that come up during the last launch sequences would cause...

    SpaceX F9 - Starlink Group 4-12 - SLC-40

    Sounds like the fairing was loaded with #9 coal, if you ask me.

    Cruise Control

    More noise needs to be made for a speed-hold cruise option, in my opinion. It's embarrassing Tesla doesn't have a dumb cruise option.

    -25, M3 not charging at all on my 110?

    Not entirely true, I had my car outside in -25 to -35 weather over Xmas, charging on 120V 12A with an extension cord. The car was actually pulling about 110V and 10A most of the time. It did add range, but very slowly - about 1% every 2-3 hours. It was only noticeable because the car was...

    Model Y long range: Cold battery performance

    One thing I would suggest is not to navigate directly to the Supercharger, so the car doesn't pre-condition the battery. You might not be able to charge quite as quickly, but the pre-conditioning uses quite a lot of power. If you want the most range, navigate to somewhere close to the...
