As a development engineer in the same field, I agree with your premise. There are compromises every day during a project, but if done right, the end product is still the perfect thing for the target audience.
There were so many intrusive ads on that website though, that it was near...
While we don't have all the specs, configurations and prices yet. It can be assumed based on the current Quad motor, that the new Quad motor will only do 2.4s 0-60 on sticky summer only tires. The Tri-motor does it on A/T tires, and will probably do it faster on summer tires. Not defending...
Adams All Season Windshield washer fluid
I've tried many, I mixed my own using concentrate from Einzette, McKee's 37, Honda, all for winter freezing temperature. But I think the Adam's is probably the best value option at this time.
RainX was my go-to for 10 years, until I used it in my...
Yes. DC drivers with data collection are pretty standard. They're dumped into databases like Pinpoint and are tracked against a specific VIN or SN.
Tesla likely saw a failure on the line, post test, or in the field. Traced that specific torque value and is checking each vehicle that had...
Yes, makes sense. As someone previously posted, the half shaft nut was probably incorrectly torqued at the factory. It loosened up and then the engagement between the half shaft and wheel hub was slipping. Tesla is using a face spline for the mating of the halfshaft to hub vs. the...
Awesome! I’m up in the Fox Valley area and did my Beast config in February. So you’re giving me hope my VIN is coming -soon-ish.
I just randomly ran into an AWD owner in Oshkosh today. First time seeing the truck. He and his wife were very gracious in answering questions AND he offered me...
The 110 amps LRA and 11.5kw continuous that you can pull from the charging port, but it requires a neutral transformer installed in the house (PowerShare box). Vs the 9.6kw continuous and 60amp LRA that you can pull from the beds 15-50 outlet.
So that is the bottom side of the pack. I'm assuming they left an air gap to prevent cell damage from underbody impacts during off-roading. And that air gap leaves a spot for any water to collect away from the cells IF there is any intrusion at any point.
Could also be some design...
