    Just a warning--I bought my first Tesla in 2013 and we are now on # 4 (2013 S85,2016 X90, 2019 3, 2021 MYP) Fanboy. But service,bodywork and communication can be an issue--more now than before because of rapid growth, supply chain issues and pandemic related personel problems. Short...

    Supercharger - Madison, WI - Whitney Way

    Plugged in today. Everything looks go to go but no power. I suspect they are constructing other non-Tesla DC chargers and maybe they are waiting until all is finished.

    Traffic info on maps

    Just picked up a Model Y-Our 4th Tesla (2013 Model S 85 (sold),2016 Model X 90D, 2018 Model LR Model 3 (sold),. On all previous cars traffic congestion would be color coded on the screen. Doesn't happen with the new Y. (Autopilot-no FSD). Is this a software issue or not supported anymore?

    Model Y performance specs

    I have a Model Y Performance on order. No vin. It includes 5 seat, 19 inch wheels. I want performance because of low end speed and torque. If I go to 20 or 21 inch wheels will I loose range? The high end of 165 mph doesn't interest me because I'll never go over 100 mph. The range is important...

    A couple of months ago the mortality/morbidity statistics in the 70-80 year old age group was in the 10 % range. Has that changed in the last month or so? Is it location specific.? Is it different if nursing home/prison populations are excluded?

    Model Y ease of entry

    We own an X and a 3. Sold my 2013 S after five years. All are fun to drive and I have no intention of going back to ICE but there are also some drawbacks to each model. As I get older and creakier it is much harder to get in and out of my Model 3 than the X. Does anyone know what entry to the...
