As of today, the supercharging stands/plugs are in and uncovered. They still had that mini-excavator on site and guys working, but there's fencing up so you can't see very well what's going on. I didn't take photos, since they were actively working on the site. Also, I saw my first Model 3 out...

I find ingress/egress to be a lot harder than it has to be. The low roofline is coupled with a very high step-over door sill, so the actual entry/exit portal is quite small. This is exacerbated by the slope of the roof to the door top. In the driver's seat, my head is above the top edge of the...

I always had the theory that Tesla planned to run the EyeQ3 concurrently with the nVidia hardware in an attempt to have the EyeQ3 act as training wheels. To this day, I believe the data streams output from the nVidia hw and EyeQ3 are of similar (if not the same) format. I think part of the...

Could they be doing this on purpose so improvements they make to certain areas of code are backwards compatible?

As if the release notes actually tell you anything substantial. My complaint is that the release notes change things that aren't documented, then we all have to poke at it for days to figure everything out. For all we know, the release notes say "Minor fixes and improvements" but the autopilot...

I don't think you're ever going to see Carplay or Android Auto (CP/AA) on the Tesla MCU because of Tesla's plans to eventually have a self-driving car. It's not going to happen, and here's why. 1. Tesla is vertically integrated. They have worked hard to make sure you don't have to take...

Any chance we'll see these times updated for the refreshed cars? There have been several changes since December 2015.

That's some beautiful work. I'm not sure I would have actually replaced the seats, but that's my take on it. The Russians can not only re-do the interior, but they could also put it into orbit if they needed to.

I thought it was improving, but I also thought that might all be in my head, so I didn't want to mention it. My commute involves some three-lane roads, a divided boulevard and a multi-lane state road with many businesses and traffic lights. AP is definitely not diving into turn lanes like it...

I'm looking forward to it. 7.0 definitely pulls harder from about 30 mph on up.

Any further news on the Tally SC? I'm flying up there on Monday, but next time I go up there, I might be driving it and I'd feel better if there was an SC nearby!

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that the standard (non-NG) seats were modified in mid-2014. I was told this by a Tesla rep at the factory when I was inquiring about a CPO vehicle. I said, "I think I want Nexgen seats and this one doesn't have them..." He said, "Well, this is a late...

Where did you have them put the interior antenna? I assume you put it somewhere that isn't noticeable but will give you the signal boost for your cell phone and the car's connection.

You're right that the audio system could be tweaked. My list includes: - Audyssey DynamicEQ or some similar DSP technology to give me the desired frequency responses at all volume levels. As it sits, it sounds great in the medium-to-high volume level, but at low volume level it lacks in the...
