Does anyone know the fuse size/max current for the 12V trailer lead OUT of the Tesla? Secondarily, I seem to find several different characterizations of how the Tesla will charge (and maybe there are several schemes as the Vin numbers have progressed - I have a June 2018 Model X) - i.e. a) X...

I have a little over a year of towing experience now with a Model X (100D) and an Airstream (FC20). The numbers do not work out to lend themselves to anything like the imagined "tow a trailer with a battery that will give you 500miles of range". -Range is about cut in half (more if traversing...

Paso Robles is nice. It may be further South than you want to go that day or whatever, but it has a large RV park with well maintained connections (can plug in trailer into 30A and Tesla into 50A simultaneously). There are several wineries and tasting rooms to visit right in the area, and that...

Has anyone been by the site in the last few days (week of the 19th)? I was wondering if anyone had new photo(s) to share.

When I try to use streaming, "Things You Should Know" will never play. It either starts to load and then says "error loading" or, lately, it just spins as if it is trying to start but never does. Does anyone else have this issue with only certain streaming programs? Second question: Why isn't...

Thanks qadaemon. This looks like a good unit and the lowest price I have seen. I am talking about integrating into the main screen, but what I meant in the last post is that I don’t think I have all the kinks worked out yet, so maybe I am not ready for the deep integration, BUT a system like...

Thank you Ohmmann, that helps! I will probably do the mod a week after delivery, because I won’t really have access to tools for that long. But I needed to know the model number. I am getting excited about the trip and hope I don’t forget something critical, or screw something up. I am getting...

Ohmman, can you tell me which model of Fastway flip jack foot you purchased? I find two, with different trailer jack “outer diameter”s. I see you put an electric one on your 22FB, and I am guessing it will have the same OD jack tube as my FC 20’, I would like to order it ahead of when I take...

I think it is possible that they are taking some serious look into the Bosal deformations thanks to Ohmmann and those who have brought the issue up (and really discovered that there may be an issue in the first place). But I don’t know that I would go so far as to say the car is not tow ready...

those are good data sources. Do you or does anyone know what the signal is on the connector out of the camera (and this into the system eventually). What I am asking is...is the signal an analog video signal that the camera produces and sends through the cabling, or is it digitized data (the...

I am wondering if the Tesla manual simply is stating, “don’t come up with a different means of connecting to the frame-i.e. from the receiver forward, it is the supplied system.” It did not seem like we were talking about a completely different weird ball bearing Bosal device...or were we...

If this switch functions on Model X (2017) please include me as a guaranteed purchaser. I would use it for my “trailer cam” but I do not see what difference it would make to the switch as long as the signal is good enough over a longer run. Looking for a more detailed explanation of this...

Does anyone have a pointer to this same kind of information for the Model X. I have a 2017, and really just want to install an additional camera view besides the built in reverse. Specifically for a trailer towing situation. I didn’t know there was a switch, but that seems only for the Model...

Ohmman, thanks again for the information. 1) I should clarify a bit, I won’t really be “rear weighting” the trailer. In the end I should have 500lb tongue weight and this will be a little more than 10% of the total loaded weight of the trailer (I will not be up to GVWR). Simply having the...

This discussion of the WD hitches and unintended extreme wear to the Tesla setup (hitch receiver) really has me concerned. I have cancelled my equal-I-zer WD hitch, at least for now. I have a little experience towing, and even a couple of experiences towing with my X 100D, and I feel like I am...

I bought a Model X 100D with every option except ludicrous in June. I am happy with the car but agree, the build is not up to my Porsche Cayenne standards. I really plan to get the Mission E when Porsche comes out with it, BUT let’s remember...I am driving a full electric car (with probably...

I forgot my main question: Has this post been addressed any further? I ordered an equalizer weight distribution hitch for WD as well as sway control (although I did not experience any issues with the 16'Sport I rented and it had only the factory hitch) - but do not know if you have had any...

Hello Mr. Vandegriff. First, as others have stated-thank you so much for all of your postings! I have ambitions to help out the forums in the same way, but I am new to them. I purchased a Model X 100D at the end of June. On the first trip, I "tested out" pulling a small utility trailer a...
