OK. I was curious about the Baja 1000 so started watching some YouTube videos.
For example:
So now I'm curious... Is EM saying that CT is supposed to be competitive with the Trophy Trucks? If so, all I have to say is:
Holy Expletive, Batman!!!!!! This is serious!!
I mean the Jeep rock...
Electrek currently has an article about how much data is being collected by FSD and sent back to Tesla:
Tesla is collecting insane amount of data from its Full Self-Driving test fleet
In the past I’ve crossed the border by car from Washington state into British Columbia Canada. Once I was on...
I’ve been thinking about 4-wheel steering. Given the recent fake videos of the Hummer crab mode, it seems like 4-wheel steering is a relatively popular and marketable feature.
I can see how it would be really expensive and failure prone to implement mechanically. But if the front wheels were...
I’ve been watching some FSD beta version first time trial videos and I have to say I’m pretty happy with the progress so far. I certainly would not take my attention off the road yet with this version of FSD but given what I see in the videos, I would certainly say that great progress is being...
In another thread there is talk about the Cybertruck being sent to Mars.
So if the cybertruck is supposed to work on Mars... what kind of low temperatures is the battery pack going to have to endure? I’m guessing the temperatures on Mars will put any cold winter in North America to shame.
If...
I know that a lot of gear heads love the loud sounds of a tuned ICE. In one of the new member threads I also saw someone mention that:
I’ll miss the sound of a V8 though.
Personally, I do like the sound but under normal circumstances I actually prefer the relative silence of BEVs.
I really...
In another thread there was a mention of Funeral mode. It’s an interesting idea and would be curious to have implemented.
And I was thinking about a caravan mode where two or more Tesla’s could directly follow each other and stick together. This would make it easier to transport more people in...
So I’m on a business trip at the moment and have a rental vehicle. It has SiriusXM radio in it. It’s been a long time since I’ve been around SiriusXM. But it got me thinking.
what are the chances that starlink has the ability to also start broadcasting a 1-way signal to compete with SiriusXM...
So from the images I've seen of the CT, it seems like the fenders that stick out from the SS sides are not made of SS. Since they also contain the side and rearview cameras, I'm wondering how these will hold up during off-roading. I've seen plenty of Jeeps and other ICE vehicles lose light...
This is probably not what everyone wants, but my current vehicle is a Toyota Sienna which has what seems like 50 cup holders. In fact within 12 inches of the drivers seat there are at least 6. Since I’m carrying around kids, these actually become useful in many ways and I’ve found that cup...
In another thread, there is talk of taking a Tesla Semi and building out an RV on it.
Given that this site is about the CT though I'm wondering if we couldn't get even more radical. I don't see myself having the $$$ for these right away. As long as I'm dreaming though, something like the below...
