    Installing a Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller in a Model X

    I installed the Prodigy RF wireless controller too, well more like I said set me up and that is what the dealer install. I also "see 800+/wh mi at 60mph", at least during the cold weather. I have not yet tried it in warm weather. I am towing between 3,100 and 3,800 lbs.

    Does anybody regret buying Model X for your main car?

    I love my X! Got it August 25, 2017. Used it for towing and a number of trips. Still turns a lot of heads. No big issues.

    Supercharger - Gaithersburg, MD

    I stopped by today as well. Pretty busy already (3 Model Ss and another Model X). PS: Tesla has the Supercharger icon as grayed still on their website, but the info is saying open with a full description. It is now missing altogether on the car's nav. Here the web description: Gaithersburg...

    Supercharger - Gaithersburg, MD

    I want by a few times today (last time was at 5pm). A Tesla rep (Mark) was working to power them up and test them. At 5pm he had all of the stations lit up and said he had a few more test to run. If all goes well they will be working tonight.

    Supercharger - Gaithersburg, MD

    Pepco is connecting the Transformers to the main lines today. The Supercharger will have power tonight. I am trying to find out if that means the stations will be turned on and open for business. I will check back tonight and again tomorrow.

    Ford C-Max Energi

    I have a 2013 Ford Fusion Energi. It is rated at 21 miles on a full charge. Real world, I can get in the high 20s to low 30s in perfect conditions. Winter cold maybe 15 miles. Pre-warming helps a lot. And it will cruise at 85 mph on all EV. I know it does not compare to the Tesla, but I do like...

    Should EVs Make Artificial Sounds at Low Speeds?

    This is a very easy question to answer: NO, NO WAY, H@#$ NO! Stop texting, look where you are walking and drivers watch were you are driving.

    Out to Launch - Trip from DC to Fla. Mar 13 - 16.

    I was on base for the very first shuttle launch and it was awesome. I think this one will be too. I'm hoping Elon will be there as well, that would really make the trip worth the drive.

    What other vehicles do you have in your garage?

    I own a Ford Fusion Energi Titanium and a Yamaha TMAX 500. Love them both, but I would trade both for a Tesla Model S or X.

    Electric RV?

    I have been wanting to see an EV Class A RV as well. We have a very nice RV, but rarely drive it anywhere because of gas prices. RVs are relatively light for their size with lots of room for batteries. They have propane on board for heating, cooking and some power generation. And a hookup (30 to...
