Wow, now we're talking! Second the motion for a first hand review. And yeah I get it on the subs. Everyone is blown away by the sound system, but they are clearly not the degenerate never-stopped-being-teenagers that we are.
I took heat for saying the same on this forum back in February, glad...
Agree, this annoys me too. I like a lot of airflow, but not blasting into my face. On top of that, even the low setting on auto runs the fan like crazy. My eyeballs are becoming shriveled husks...
Simple fix - remove the whole damn thing. Yes, I know, CA law requires a front plate, but I've been driving 4 different cars over the last 20 years in CA without a front plate, and have never been pulled over for it. I've been pulled over for other things multiple times, and still didn't get...
No change here. Tessie efficiency below. Update was downloaded around Tuesday, so maybe 3 or 4 bars of data on this plot. Yes it's high, I drive like I'm running late for an important meeting, because I am.
I did 75% crystalline, and it's pretty much perfect if you ask me. Cuts down the heat a ton, but also obscures vis through the front just enough. The angle and flatness of the windshield helps out a lot on this; you don't need much tint before the outsiders see more glare/reflection than...
I went with this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H6Q9XWF
Fits nicely on top of the mobile charger in the smugglers bay, with outer slots still available for other items. Reasonably quick (took me about 2 minutes to inflate from ~20 to 50 psi), not as loud as the reviews suggest, and has all...
And not a moment too soon! LFGooooooo!
The other day the 3 family Teslas were parked next to each other. M3 = 97F. MY = 96F. CT = 119F. Sunny day but only 77F or so. And this is with full tint including Crystalline on the windshield, and with the roof screen in place.
Check out what they are rolling out in Maryland:

Time to put that 123 kWh pack to work to earn it's keep?
In California, Tesla has a Virtual Power Plant...
Umm... what? Ok I see where this is going, and I'm not sure why every thread on this board eventually turns into this, but I decline. So I'm signing off this thread!
But I do recommend for anyone interested to do a couple quick Google searches for grid forming vs grid following inverters...
A couple of things:
1. An inverter is just another name for a DC to AC converter. The CT does this with a 240v 11.5 kW inverter onboard in the battery penthouse.
2. From what I've read, the 3V is similar to previous V2 and V1 gateways, it just also had the grid forming components onboard. For...
There's totally a way for it to do so, just like the powerwalls do. They just operate in grid following mode using the grid as reference, and supplement (or completely cover) the grid power going to your home. Tesla is just not implementing it, maybe due to hardware/software shortcoming but...
My bet is they want to let you know you're way better off spending more on a PW than be disappointed with the install costs and limited functionality provided by the 3V gateway that's included with FS. Better for them, and in my opinion they would be right. It's silliness to pay $3-7k install...
This is the right answer. Low cost solutions exist for everything less hungry than winches and large car audio amps. If you find a low cost solution that is 100A+ capable, both the car audio and off road communities want to hear from you!
