    FSD warning: huge hotspot data hog

    Just a quick warning … I engaged the free FSD trial a month and an half ago … and then did a subscription today for a big trip. While FSD was engaged it ran through my hotspot data plan at the rate of several gigs per day. Tesla needs to do a better job of explaining this as it was totally...

    Can't run service mode battery health check without internet connection?

    So I prepped all week to run the battery health test before a big weekend trip, and I keep getting this message. The car is at 30% SoC, should be fine to run the test. It seems quite obviously to be some sort of connectivity issue with the server? But I have so many questions: 1. I DO have...

    Laptop tray - any opinions?

    Hi all, I'm looking for opinions on these laptop style trays ... aka: Jowua - Foldable Car Tray for Tesla In particular, general opinions of these products (do you love them, hate them?) and the ergonomics of how far back you need to put the seat to make it actually usable. I often find...

    Finally found a good iPad / tablet holder for rear seats

    So it's been surprisingly difficult to find a solid tablet holder for a kid in the back seat that looks to be reasonably safe in case of an accident. Nearly all the designs seem to be some sort of loosey-goosey clamping or retention mechanism that definitely will not hold onto a tablet during a...

    Bay Area to Disneyland road trip (2023 Model Y Long Range)

    Day 1 - Trip to Central California Driving a 2023 Model Y Long Range in Blue. In addition to this being our first road trip, I’m testing a Garmin DriveSmart 66 as a DIY instrument cluster / alternative nav. Lots to cover! I charge the car to 80% for our trip. Overall, it should be 4 hours...

    Does anyone here use a Garmin GPS to replace / supplement the native navigation?

    So yes … I know it’s a first world problem, but the built in nav is just a little short of where I want it to be … so I’ve been considering throwing in a Garmin Drivesmart GPS? Pros to the Tesla Nav Built in range estimates Integration with supercharger network Cons to the Tesla Nav stalls up...

    San Francisco to Disneyland with a toddler - Fly vs Drive?

    So, we're about to take our first vacation in a while, and Disneyland seems like a good opportunity to do a little road trip with the Model Y. We're just two parents with a 2 1/2 year old, nothing fancy. According to Google Maps, it's about a 6 hr 30 min drive, and maybe a couple of hours more...

    Thin steering wheel covers?

    Can anyone recommend a thin steering wheel cover/protector? The one I just tried sort of works, but doesn't wrap the wheel completely and is so thick that it substantially changes the feel of the wheel. I was hoping for something more like a phone "skin" instead of a thick "case", if that's a...

    Best way to get USB-C port or power to lower left windshield (driver's side)?

    Hi all, I've been noodling over various positions to mount my phone while driving, and I've concluded the best place for me is on the driver's side, with a vent mount near the lower left of the windshield. The only problem is, there's no USB-C power on that side to power the wireless charger...
