Good memory. Yes, it came home delivered to a rest stop, since I live on a narrow dirt road, with Zero SOC at the end of the day. Driver said he loaded it that way, so he wouldn't take my suggestion of just unloading at the end of my dirt road and letting me roll it downhill the 1/4mi to my...

Tap your release notes, and it'll show you that 3.25 includes 12.3.6

Yep, check to see if there's bird poop in front of the camera.

Yes, but I keep waiting to hear from Tesla owners in Canada and Norway about how their batteries are doing. I mean, it's at least as cold as Maine, right?

Yes, it's true. I usually park it here at the free destination charger at the ski resort. I like that it's close to the primary lift! That's 2 weeks ago.

Outside in my temporary carport. I jury-rigged a couple pieces of wood with white tape, and yes, it'll park, but not all that well. Yes, I'm getting a new license plate! It was approved!

Well, in the thousands of posts I've made, I've detailed it a few times. It's not complex. I got it in December of 2018, and set my nightly charge to 80%, within 6 months, I had changed to 60%, based upon reading that the cathode cracked at 3.92V. I estimated that was 63%, so I decided to charge...

Ski season is mostly over, only a couple weekends left at Killington, so I took out my skis, raised the back seats, got back there, removed the console cover and re-plugged in my OBDII reader, and opened the SMT app to see what it said, since I haven't had it plugged in since January. So, after...

Looks totally cosmetic. I hope it's not too expensive.

Your Tesla: Good Morning, Moe, you seem a little heavy today, my seat sensor can barely breathe. We'll skip stopping at Tim Horton's this morning and take you to the Planet Fitness instead. It was cold last night, so my battery is a little lower than when I finished charging. Still we should...

I've been subscribed since Thanksgiving. I have EAP. The FSDb v12 is great, as far as I'm concerned. I have to drive 160+miles roundtrip every time I ski, and I skied 42x this year, as of today, my last day. It makes it so much easier to drive there and back. I couldn't do it so often if I...

Do you think some of that might be software as opposed to hardware?

Did you get the one month trial? I've had EAP, and have been testing FSDb since Thanksgiving. On the highway, there's no difference, as I think the software stack is the same. My understanding due to compute restraints they haven't been working on updating the highway stack. However, that was a...

Yes, sometimes insurance companies will settle, because settling is less expensive than proving which one was at fault.

Based upon the picture evidence, I don't believe your scenario occurred. If you look at the impact on the Tesla, it's not a 90° t-bone impact. It shows a peeled can effect on the rear door, due to an oblique impact. The impact was slow. One of them was turning. If you imagine the Tesla turning...

Hmmm...biting my tongue. Okay, you got the last word!

Do you have any before/after pics from the repeaters?

Uhm, you should be talking to YOUR insurance company, not the other driver's. Your insurance will deal with the other one. The other driver can say whatever they like, but the story has to fit the evidence. The basic evidence is he has damage to the front of his Prius. You have damage on the...

Yes, but complaining about things that we can all agree will naturally improve over time is just odd, and I'm not being complacent. I just don't state things that are obvious nor complain about things I have no control over.

But what if it is the "best curve"? It's a tradeoff no? Faster DC charge rates, increase deg, no? They have the most battery data, no? Do I know better than them? Maybe! I still have zero deg after 5 ½ yrs and 64k miles! Yes, 5 min charge times would be nice, would probably take a chemistry...

The Prius hit you in the side. I think the damage makes it obvious what happened.

Charging, sure, everyone wants faster charging, who doesn't? Having said that, I will from time2time, look at a big roadtrip I've taken, Maine to Denver. It's faster now with V3 chargers than V2 chargers. When I first did it, the average stop took 17m. Now, 13m. I barely have time to get out...

Impressive level of detail! I can't remember that much, not to mention things that would bother me initially, I would eventually just get used to, so some things were just normal adaptation issues. A few comments on your experience: • Delivery, it's different and annoying, happens only once...

I use Chill and low Regen for a driver setting I call "SnowDay". And, if I let someone else drive my car, I set it to SnowDay, because it's the closest feeling to a regular ICE in terms of acceleration and braking.

I didn't know the FSD buy price had decreased. Now, I'm tempted to get it!

I used half-sized breakers to create more space in my panel.

Huh, that's not the way mine works. It works the way you'd expect:

Okay, I'm still confused. Your repeater cams are not very usable to watch your blind spot? I mentioned it in another post, recently, but I found my rear cam and repeater cams have improved over time. I assumed it was software updates. My frame rate used to be lousy, seeming like 5fps, but now...

Interesting. Maybe it's because I don't use the browser, so I don't notice. My backup cam seems quick enough though.

I've only changed my filters once, pro-actively, in 5 ½ yrs. Maine is usually dry, but we've had record amounts of rain in the past year, so pretty humid. No issues really.

Mine's December '18, made in October. I upgraded my chip to HW3 and it runs V12 just great. No issues. This is from earlier this week, when I had this giant truck appear on my screen, so I looked at it with my cameras to see how close it actually was. As you can see, the cameras look good! What...

What's wrong with Atom?

Sounds like it was busy! Was it raining a lot? That can trigger the cameras to do lots of unnecessary recording, which can easily eat up more than 1 mi/hr of range.

I paid the $1000 charge, but it was worth it to me. The FSDb has been great. Some people got better deals, but that's life.

HW3? When did that become standard?

Did you get them on camera?

Probably distracted since they were going so slow. Most red light runners are going fast, and decide it's better to run the light than slow and stop. Anyway, good that you were looking, as you should.

No way. You've got a problem. Better take it to a Service Center! /s

It's going to go down, because the ambient is dropping relative to the last time you turned it on. That's my theory.

I'm going to guess, you gained, RELATIVE, to the prediction. Pictures are always appreciated, because it's not always obvious what people are referring to.

Why bury it? So, people don't start pressing it unnecessarily!

As I mentioned to others, I believe, and I may be wrong, that the BMS recalculates your range whenever you "start" a trip. So, if your ambient temps have changed from home to work, then you'll get a different range calculation when you re-start your car. In Winter, you often get these...

I don't have a heat pump model, so I can't answer the choice question. All I know, is I'm quite satisfied with my 2018 LR-AWD. Charging every day is better, in general, as 3 shallow discharges is better than one deep discharge, but the individual difference can be quite minor. I'd do whatever...

There's a video on Youtube of a guy who bought a seat sensor from the internet, and changed it himself.

I think you have it reversed. If I didn't check the car every day, it would have been only 5.1% lost after 2wks., and thus 0.36% lost every day, not 0.15%. That's why I called it "nothing in the grand scheme of things".

I agree with @1965Falcon , I have a 25-30mi daily drive, same as you, and that's 10% for me, so I charge to 60% and plug-in nightly. After 5 ½yrs, I still have all my original EPA-estimated range. Started with 310mi, and my very last reading was 310mi.

In my opinion, others may disagree, it's just due to the changing ambient conditions the BMS sees. The BMS calculates SOC and range based upon the temp at the moment when you "start", and doesn't recalculate until the next time you "start". Because of that, you'll see on the energy graph...

What, the version they're sending out is 11.1?!? Idiots! That version must be over a year old!

Only roundtrips count, otherwise wind and elevation can be factors; and no one can compare unless they run the same road as you. Further, if you really want a reference efficiency measurement, I'd use ABRP, ABRP, as they calibrate your car's efficiency at 65mph. To me, that's going to give you...

0.6%SOC, or 1/2kWh in 2wks with daily checks, is really nothing in the grand scheme of things.
