    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    13% is generally safe for an arrival percentage providing you are reasonably close to the supercharger (say less than 75 miles) and aren't expecting a significant change in environment before getting to the Supercharger. Closer you are, lower risk. Examples of "significant change" - Driving...

    Considerations buying a 2nd hand Long Range Model 3

    Charge it to 90% and then (briefly) switch the battery display to EPA miles from percentage and divide by 0.9 to get the current range in EPA miles. Because of the nature of Lithium batteries, the car estimating the remaining range is more art than science when in the 25% to 75% range, but 90%...

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    [Yesterday FSD was unexpectedly switched on by my wife when she thought she was switching on cruise control. That's bad, since we hadn't activated it in Settings.] It was activated without her knowledge and without her permission. Totally blindsided her.

    12.3.4 Intervention within first 3 minutes

    Yesterday FSD was unexpectedly switched on by my wife when she thought she was switching on cruise control. That's bad, since we hadn't activated it in Settings. First problem with FSD is you can't just switch on cruise control. Second problem is FSD tried to wreck the car: * We are in the...

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    Wasn't my wife's experience today. FSD was activated automatically without her knowledge. Then when she went to switch on cruise control, she unexpectedly got FSD instead. FSD almost wrecked the car for her, as it switched lanes into a right turn lane far too early and she had to swerve back...

    Questions about renting a Tesla for a Road Trip

    Just got back from UK where I rented a Model 3 LR AWD from Hertz. The target return percentage is 75%, so I returned it with 76% 😁 All 4 rims had the worst curb rash I've ever seen, so always check for that. No traffic on the display, but the routing allows for it. I took the USB drive from...

    Did you just buy a Tesla from Hertz Car Rental?

    It's a bit more nuanced than that. Some bozo CEO at Hertz decided to get in bed with Uber and rent vehicles to Uber drivers. And they thought that was a great business to get involved with. Problem is that most Uber drivers only think they are making money if they ignore the cost of their...

    To misquote Churchill: A permit is not the end, not the beginning of the end, but perhaps the end of the beginning.

    NEMA 10-30R on a 20A Breaker?

    Better to switch the outlet to 6-20

    Supercharger - Southaven, MS

    Tesla Navigator showing this Supercharger is possibly out of service. Could anyone who recently used it give an update?

    Supercharger - Atlanta GA - Roswell Rd

    Yes, 16 pedestals. Probably V3. There's a lot of office blocks, and upscale multi-storey condos and apartments around there, so it'll be well used.
