Installing the side washers is super easy, any DIYer can do it. You just make a small hole in the plastic wheel fenders. Works, extremely well.
While disengaging FSD is annoying, it's also understandable. For me, in winter, I often get sidecams blocked by road dirt or snow, with alerts...
Integrated battery, interesting. I wonder how big it is.
Edit: i've been informed it's fake. Okay, I see, Perplexity AI, just mushed a bunch of stories together. I mean, the last bulletpoint about entering a crowded aftermarket space is silly, since CyberLandr is still just a rendering, right...
After another fairly average ski season here in Maine, I had forgotten we had a big dump on Thanksgiving 2024. I went skiing a couple days later on Saturday. Yep, we got snow.
I assume it's a side-effect of Tesla working on pothole avoidance. Here's a long tar patch that my CT avoided near Mammoth Lakes, CA. Similar to a long skid mark.
I got one of these back when I had my 2018 Model 3. It now holds my CT keycard and sits in my glovebox for when I have to hand my CT over to valets or when I take it to the tire shop for tire swaps or state inspections.
Still has the how-to-unlock and drive instructions from my old car:
If your CT is that noisy and they can't fix it, I'd get a new one if that's an option. I'm shocked at how quiet my 2025 CT is compared to my 2018 Model 3.
Bummer. Saw my first AppleGreen rest stop at the Kennebunk, Maine rest stop on I95. My family has been stopping there for almost 60yrs for gas, and now supercharging. It's the busiest rest stop in the state, due to its convenience.
Very bummed to see the contract has been given to AppleGreen...
Glad everyone in your CT is okay, as that's the most important thing.
I'm glad the CT turned to avoid hitting the Pilot in front of you, but a little disappointed it didn't go right or avoid the collision completely!
35 yrs ago I got hit in the rear on the Eisenhower expressway in Chicago...
What FSD version?
I just drove 10,000 miles on a ski trip, in February and March, on v14.2.2.4 and v14.2.2.5 and while it did some pothole and tar strip avoidance, it wasn't so bad as to bother me. And, I didn't notice any difference between driving modes.
Dodged this pothole patch at 75mph...
Huh? The fire hydrant? That 2hr parking sign seems out of place, then. And, if they saw the truck almost run over a person in a wheelchair, why didn't they take a pic of the driver? Odd, did I miss something?
Cool. I made myself a little charge curve chart when I got my 2025 AWD, a year ago. I overlaid the data on an older chart I made for my 2018 Model 3. Those little blue stars were my actual charge figs from my first drive home from the delivery center in NJ to Maine. It's nice to see that the...
Have I ever had range anxiety?
So, I just got back from a 10k mile ski trip; where I drove from Maine to California and back, with stops up in Montana and Wyoming, etc. Did I have any range anxiety?
Yes, once. I had a fairly good comfort level with my highway efficiency driving from Maine out...
Back from a 10,000 mile ski trip that started on Super Bowl Sunday. In that time, I pretty much drove on FSD the whole time. Mostly, having to back up another 6" at supercharger pedestals. V4 was fine, but the others have shorter cables. And, the usual wrong turn out of supercharger lots. Can't...
