Hmmm, my 2017 X indicates $8,000. Still, even if it were $2,000, I would not do it. People with aging Teslas might not keep them much longer. I'm already looking to sell my since we have 2 other new ones anyway.

Just a guess based on your image and the fact that the top is more clear than the bottom. I'd guess condensation if it is a short time span issue, but only if for a short period of time. Sounds like your issue is longer. As for FSD, my inside camera has never been replaced and I am on FSD12 in...

Good point. When the day comes that I need mental help and they ask me that question, I am going to say "I am an engineer. You gave me a glass twice bigger than what I needed." :)

HI J. Just want to add that my wife measures the success/failure rate of FSD in terms of "Blood alcohol level". :) When FSD first came out, she gave it a BAC of .15 (in most states a level of .08% is considered drunk.) :eek: So the car was totally wasted on FSD. A couple years later, it got...

I got this version pushed to my older 2017 MX a couple days ago. Don't have any of the strange things people talking about above. I went out on 3 different trips about 20-25 miles and back home and mostly saying "WOW" (in a good way) the whole time. I was impressed at many of the things it...

Haven't seen it. Interesting to me they are the same version 12.3.6. I have 2024.14.6 on my older MX and 2024.3.25 on the newer MY and they both show version 12.3.6. I forget what the reason is for the two threads. Someone with a sharper mind than me knows :)

yes, precisely.

RIGHT. agree. AND too many people are expecting an incredibly high degree of accuracy in the display of miles when we all know there are too many variables. In this case, displaying 259 instead of 260 is expecting a measurement accuracy of less than .4%. @gsl120 don't get hung up on these...

Hmmmm, I lived in California for 40 years and never thought that. I didn't want to be close distance for a lot of reasons.

I was thinking this is a bunch of crap when I saw it. BUT, yesterday I took the wife to the doctor for routine checkup and then to a restaurant for lunch and finally back home. I used FSDB for all 3 legs of the trip; a combination of interstate (I80), transferring to I580, off onto surface...

YES. In the 40 years I lived there, and had to made a left lane exit, I can probably count them on 1 hand.

Interesting. I guess some things never change. I remember my granddad saying he had to have personalized instruction on how to guide his horse when he first bought it about a hundred years ago. :)

Yo Earl. You're a pretty smart guy. Can you give an example of where there might be tire marks from braking? I've never known a Tesla to leave tire marks even with hard braking due to the anti-skid ability. Maybe I'm just not thinking clearing this morning :)

Yea, that sure is an ugly and confusing looking set of lines. I wouldn't confuse it as a lane I could use because of the narrow space and solid white lines, yet new people coming through the area could get confused before figuring out what is going on. Sometimes I wonder who comes up with...

Right, right for through travelers, yet there is also that very accessible 250 KV SC less than 1/2 mile off of I80 in Reno near McCarren which is another quick place to stop. I like this new one at Verdi because folks can charge right before going up the long hill from 4,000 feet to 7,200 feet...

I wonder why that was changed, if correct.

Hmmm, I never needed to do anything in my Tesla account about a 15400 form. Filed my fed taxes, the IRS side pretty much immediately indicated "Received". I think that is what you mean by "submitted". Never saw anything that read "Accepted", however within a couple hours I saw "Refund...

Just when I thought I'd seen just about everything in my long life..... this comes along. CUTE

Do you mean surprise "LOWER" income?

software doesn't do it

mine sees them

Yes it is a 100D. Typically on a long trip, if I were to charge from 20% to 80%, it would take about an hour, but I don't often do that. I'll charge to about 60% and get back on the road.

There is a rear bumper camera now? Or are you talking about the camera above the bumper on the door panel?

yup drives me nuts as well.

ha ha ha. good one :) yup, actually it was her Korean brothers that told her not to but it. ;)

You make a good point to that person's question. Similarly, our CPA told us some time ago that when we bought another Tesla, we would not get the full $7500 tax credit since our only income now is only social security. So, he suggested we transfer funds from our IRA account to an individual...

My wife looked at that car a few months ago, and being Korean, she always loves to buy Korean products, but not that thing. She bought a model Y instead.

Would you mind telling me your license plate so I can be sure to get out of your way when I drive through LA? :)

One of my Teslas is a 2017 MX and I don't have this issue on 30.8

90 mph

A LOT of people had this issue, and many had the "Half Shafts" (front of car) replaced and sometimes people said the problem would reoccur. It was most noticeable when accelerated from low speed of 10-30 mph. The problem seemed to go away when Tesla redesigned and replaced the "Clevis...

yes, assuming the accident is in front of the car. I haven't seen many dash cams with options to see all around the car.

To turn off the Rainbow Road, press the Autopilot stalk again or tap the "X" on the touchscreen.

I'm doubtful anything would be damaged because of a non-working external temperature reading.

Thanks for that info. I forgot to mention it. Wife (who was in that industry for many years) says it also depends on length of time driving (for newer drivers), amount of coverage, coverage options selected, deductible amount, type of car, cost of car, male or female driver (in many cases)...

Nice post. A similar thing happened to me last year on the interstate when a woman was on her phone as accidentally steered into my lane. Tesla avoided it.

OP, you bought the prototype version .05. Be patient. It will fully charge your car in 16.8 years.

I have a curiosity question: Is there an issue with those passes being stolen if they are on the plate outside the car? not familiar with what they are.

Yup! I wonder if the side of the electrician's truck read... "Sparky's Electrical Service, drain cleaning and gardening" :eek:

Nice. One of our 3 Teslas is a 2017 MX. It's been a great car with no issues except for that well known acceleration vibration issue a few years back. After having the new upgraded clevis mount replaced for free a couple years ago, issue hasn't returned.

Welcome. As you may have noticed, lots of smart people here.

The wife says she wonders if you know that there are numerous individual variables that affect rates. There is probably one or more reasons why you are getting double the quote even if from the same insurance company. Comparisons are of no help.

Hmmm, I've not seen this yet. Recently drove from Nevada to Ohio and didn't see that happen.

Might be more reliable to ask Stevie Wonder to mow the lawn. :oops:

Yes that is also me. I replace the battery before the 4-year mark especially since I often take long trips. Just like batteries in my older ICE cars.

Oh and I guess I should ask if your vin starts with "5YJ" ?

As I recall, the announcement was around October 2021, and started shipping refreshed MX with the heat pump in January 2022. Offered as a retrofit in April, and all MX shipped in October 2022.

If it is mine, then 3. Especially if i lived in a big city like LA.

yes and that is probably what commercial businesses are charged 24/7

That is simply TOO SHORT of a distance to judge what your average will be. There are lots of variables as you likely know. Air conditioning, heating, elevation changes, speed, wind, etc.
