    Don’t be a moron like me with Summon and pole saw

    That's thinking outside the box. But wait... you were standing INSIDE the box. Now I'm confused... 🤣

    Spent Hours with new Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive Cybertruck with a Tesla Engineer

    250 mm fixed suspension height would be a deal breaker for me, but I suspect it would be fine for most people.

    FSD Subscription Should Include Free Whiper Blades

    It's a valid point. I would never clear dust and dirt off my windshield without using the washer fluid to reduce the chances of scratching the glass. Sure, this windshield glass is supposed to be better, but I still wouldn't do it. I've never wiped the mud off a car with a dry wash mitt...

    PowerShare with Powerwall UPDATE from Wes!

    I'd say the battery could care less. It's DC hitting the battery. And DC switching designs are really good today... they should be stable and smooth. It's possible that a bit of high frequency noise could get through, which is essentially the switching rate (and harmonics of that rate) used to...

    Does FSD read speed limit signs anymore?

    Thinking about this on an 8 hour road trip last week... It would be great if the scroll wheel would switch to speed numbers if you roll past Sloth at the bottom and Mad Max at the top. If Sloth doesn't ease up enough in a construction zones, keep rolling down and set a speed manually. The...

    PCS v2.0

    I definitely don't trust that T2....

    Does FSD read speed limit signs anymore?

    I'm leaning towards "no" on this. It's been ignoring school zone signs that it respected previously. And construction zones are mostly ignored too. 120 kmh posted limit and it wants to blow through a 50 zone, with delineators everywhere... 🤦‍♂️ Even Sloth mode won't slow you down slow enough or...

    PCS v2.0

    That's interesting. I haven't had a failure yet, but I did see the same "charging stopped" error several times over a week or two. But not since. That was quite a while ago. I wonder if that was a hint that failure had begun, but they have somehow slowed or masked it in software? Now I'm curious.

    How do you tune an AM Radio station?

    LOL, I actually use Morse on a regular basis, but that's out of interest and nostalgia, not necessity. I intend to add an actual 'shortwave radio' to my truck eventually. But the antenna is huge and not really good to have attached all the time... (seriously). :cool:

    How do you tune an AM Radio station?

    Well, I don't have a horse in the race, so I don't really care if it passes or not. And frankly, given it's regressive, archaic and stupid, I naturally assumed it would pass. 😉

    Music & songs that best showcase sound system

    Pretty much anything Steely Dan / Donald Fagen. A great listening experience that is even better with video is Peter Gabriel - Growing Up Live. Red Rain (), Sky Blue (), etc. It's a great Blu-ray I enjoy using to shake my house with regularly. I listen on the road using Tidal, but I...

    How do you tune an AM Radio station?

    No, it's not dead, but it's dying. The last ones standing will likely be the ones with the nutjob content I mentioned, because they're driven by ideology not financial reality. Poor fidelity alone put a stake in the heart of music stations on AM, late '60s, early '70s. FM listenership would...

    Left sweeping turn and the A-pillar.....

    I'm actually surprised that the haters haven't focused on this... I guess it just confirms they've never actually driven the truck. FSD really helps with this. The number of times a car goes by on a left sweeper that I hadn't actually seen coming is embarrassingly high. That always reminds me...

    How do you tune an AM Radio station?

    Awesome. Radios in cars, but no transmitters transmitting. About as smart as bringing back coal... 🙄

    Cybertruck Tool Kit new in Tesla Shop

    I clicked the link. And laughed. And laughed again. For that price I could put together a much better kit myself, instead of just tossing in my breaker bar, socket, etc., when I'm going somewhere BCAA won't want to find me. I have a second set of wheels and tires, so one is generally strapped...
