Tesla proactively recommended that my front motor be replaced last month at 18,900 miles. Today, at 19,600 miles (11 days later) I got an alert that the front motor has been disabled. I never had a problem with it, until they replaced it.

They = Willow Glen Electric. They are responsible for all of the Tesla employee installs and a heavy majority of the customer installs for the Tesla PowerShare BackUp Gateway in the SF Bay Area. Tesla informed them that every customer who has the previous generation of the BackUp Switch needs...

They just came to install the new Backup Switch that goes behind the meter. You can see that the unit is different. Even the metal being used is different. The first photo is the old backup switch. New backup switch

I have 10,500 credits, but when I go to redeem it, most of the items are for the model 3/y/x/s and not the Cybertruck. Has anyone else figured out how to spent points on actual Cybertruck items?

I go to America's Tire aka Discount Tires and it is free. The first time they put in on the machine they drive over and it lifts it off the ground. These are massive machines that can hold any weight you throw at it. The last time I went to another one near by house and all the machines we...

Downloaded and when for a ride in the rain. Still tailgates WAY to close at freeway speeds, especially with slick streets. They need to allow for a speed profile to select the distance. The Tesla engineers need to actually drive these things.

Very true. In the United States of America, power is pretty reliable.

I agree it can react fast as a human, but it cannot anticipate like a human can (yet). There are often times you see the traffic ahead and something is brewing, but it is only looking at the car in front of the Cybertruck and one car beyond. It reacts and does not anticipate. With that being...

If the Power Backup Gateway wasn’t included, I would recommend folks to go down this path for backing up there home. If you have elderly parents have them install an inlet box too so you can power them up too.

My Tesla Power Backup Gateway is not live yet, so I plugged the Cybertruck into my generator inlet box which is attached to my house. This allows me to power my entire home for 5 days. I consume on average 17 kW per day.

I use Standard 90% of the time, Chill 8% of the time and Hurry 2%. All of these issues happened in standard. Tailgating happens with all three. The sudden acceleration is a quick violent jolt, which is not a normal FSD feature.

I have a the update and I have done about 30 miles with it. I am going to truly test it today. I have a 15 mile route that I do in the Bay Area that tests all of the things it struggles with. Hugging the Left - There is a portion of my route that goes through a tunnel (Oakland to Alameda)...

Here in the Bay Area, that is an easy way to get shot at by doing some foolishness in public like that. I would never dream of flipping someone off here in the Bay Area...that is just asking for trouble you don't need. It isn't worth your life.

I have the latest update and I have about 30 miles of FSD under my belt with it yesterday. I did not get any phantom wipes during the drive.

This is the beginning. Once FSD becomes clearly more proficient than humans, all insurance companies will charge people more if they want to manually drive their vehicle. it is all about the data and insurance is a 100% data driven business.

Being we are all EV folks, one would think about conserving energy.

Sorry, yes I am. I also changed the color of the bolded font to white. Sorry. I thought everyone runs dark theme on the boards and in their Tesla:)

“Additionally, per Tesla's request, WGE will also be installing a newer version of the Backup Switch prior to PG&E's arrival at no additional cost. “ They installed the original switch in March 2024. They are going to come out and install a “newer version” prior to the electric company doing...

My point is that I already have a backup switch and they are going to change it out for a newer one that does the switching process faster.
