    Polestar 4 digital rearview mirror

    Here's another option that might work for some. It has a large battery, solar charging and a USB C connection. Could also attach a powerbank if you like. One guy even uses it for a front camera on his Tesla...

    Polestar 4 digital rearview mirror

    The one I use in my Subaru (tried a couple others before): Spedal M9 E-Mirror Dash Cam Rearview Camera with Sony Starvis Lens I bought this about 5 years ago so am sure that there are many even better options now. Most are natively 5 volt (so would work via USB) but many use a plug-in 12v to...

    Polestar 4 digital rearview mirror

    I've had an aftermarket high resolution digital mirror on my Subaru for many years. It's so superior to a standard rear view mirror. It's able to switch between 3 modes with a light finger tap. Would never go back to a standard mirror. That said, the Tesla system is great, but I'd also add...

    2 weeks of Cybertruck ownership and happy with range numbers. You'll be very happy.

    Thanks for this information. All the range FUD made me wonder. I drive the speed limit or a bit over. Most highways around me are 55-60mph. Max on interstates here is 70mph. My experience about build quality on the Model Y matches yours. I bought a 2022 Model Y from Austin and it's closer...

    Update: Aero Wheel Cover Recall reason = making contact with tire sidewall, wearing down rubber

    Or perhaps remove the outer rubber ring that holds (is integral with) the tips completely?

    Update: Aero Wheel Cover Recall reason = making contact with tire sidewall, wearing down rubber

    Agree. On the reveal night 4+ years ago I loved everything about the looks of the Cybertruck except the wheel covers and proprietary tires. That hasn't changed. The good news is they're being redesigned and I'm sure there'll be many aftermarket alternatives.

    Takeaways after owning Cybertruck for 24 hours (updates: factory window tint = 22.9%, scratches pics added)

    I'm having some of the same thoughts, although after waiting a while bought a Model Y in 2022 as the Cybertruck still seemed a way off. I'm thinking maybe just keep the Model Y (which I love) at least until (and if) the Cybertruck prices come down significantly. I was intending on using the...

    Judge Rules Against Elon's Pay Package [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Why? If this decision stands it gives Tesla billions (at least in the short term).

    Judge Rules Against Elon's Pay Package [⚠️ ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    Since that was before the 5x and then 3x splits you'd get $28/share. I'll double the offer.

    Towing with Cybertruck report - EV towing an EV (~2500 lbs)

    Nice test to confirm physics. Kyle's surprise at the end makes one wonder how many classes he slept through. Pretty much a similar reason that trains are so efficient at pulling loads: relatively low air resistance even though they're massively heavy. Of course the steel wheels also reduce...

    Towing with Cybertruck report - EV towing an EV (~2500 lbs)

    The air resistance of the windshield and roof on that ATV likely causes a far higher drop in average efficiency than the added weight, especially at highway speeds. Driving slower will dramatically increase the range and will have less effect on total travel time than you think, especially when...

    Foundation AWD Home Share installation

    This is what I found on the Tesla Powershare site: "Installation With Powerwall and Wall Connector No additional installation required if you already have any Powerwall system and hardwired Wall Connector. Through over-the-air firmware updates, your Powershare vehicle can intelligently work...

    Foundation AWD Home Share installation

    My understanding is that if you have a Powerwall 3 you don't need the gateway as it's included in the Powerwall 3. So the universal Wall Connector is wired directly to the Powerwall 3 (earlier Powerwalls do not include the gateway). Is this correct? Also I believe one of the reasons for the...

    Cybertruck Foundation Series Delivered: Accessories and Quirks

    I use the microfiber cloths that are sold in a huge pack at Costco (which are better quality than most). They work great for the Model Y screen and a lot of other things (glasses, phone screens, camera lenses, etc.).

    Headlight concerns?

    Car expert Kyle's headlight rant: Kyle (and his team) didn't seem to know that flashing the high beams actually turns on both the high and low beams (as it does on most cars). Doesn't help one's credibility.
