Ooh ooh I want better nozzles too, I hate the current two-stream setup.
It's like a baby peeing on your windshield LOL.

It's not too bad if you aren't moving, but there just isn't enough of a stream to adequately get further up the windshield once you're cruising (especially on the highway). At least that's my experience and I gather others are seeing the same thing.Ha! This is funny... I always laugh about my wipers - they are a joke, really. Maybe they work well in California but in Calgary they are not the greatest. I had the wiper blades replaced in the summer and before winter they were already streaking! I would appreciate more of a spray than a squirt for the washer fluid too...
Huh? If it's melting over that way (it is here today too), then you should have plenty of grime to clean up!! I've washed mine a couple of times in the past few weeks, so that my license plate is at least visible. But it only takes a few minutes to be back in the ugly state again.3s-a-charm said:For someone who likes detailing/cleaning their car... this Chinook weather is killing me!
That's the problem... it's a losing battle. Wash in the morning and by 1pm you can't see your paint again. I'm going to install a car-wash in my garage so I can wash my car daily - with an iPhone app of course. Park, walk away, wash, charge.Huh?

It's horrible, I love driving a clean car, but half of me is ready to throw in the towel and wait for spring! we've had wet/dirty/salty roads non-stop for weeks, they refuse to dry, and refuse to freezeThat's the problem... it's a losing battle.

Ok, then lets start a dirty pictures thread. I'm sure it will be interesting for those that live in warm dry climates. :wink:
I found this 85kwh battery pack for sale in Edmonton on eBay,
It says in the ad that it was removed from a wreck, but the person selling it is just a guy who parts out cars, so who knows where he brought the car from, most likely somewhere close by, but he could have brought it in from anywhere (and as a wreck for parts he even could have imported it)Curious what the story is behind it. Did someone writeoff their tesla in Edmonton?
That was exactly my thought, if I had time and space that battery pack would be in my garage right now!That's a pretty good price for 85 kWH of lithium batteries, never mind all the ancillary battery pack components! I wish I had time to tinker!
Haha! Well who knows, maybe in the future we can share a battery pack. My dream home will have geothermal heating and a grid-tied solar system with battery backup. From preliminary calculations, I'd probably want around 40 kWh of battery backup.That was exactly my thought, if I had time and space that battery pack would be in my garage right now!

That would power one heck of an R/C car...I know there was a Tesla at a wreckers near Leduc, someone came in and pulled the battery out of it in early December. The person who pulled the battery had some of his buddies from Hobby Wholesale come take a look at it, HW sells a lot of RC gear/batteries and they were interested in seeing the Tesla pack. Nobody I talked to seemed to know anything about the car itself and the story of its situation.
