I am realizing that it may be some time (meaning way to effing long) before we get back up proximity alarms. This is very frustrating. Really? How long does it take to get backup alarms when it is something cars 15 years old had on the day they were sold? I went online searching this topic...

I’m sure some people think electric vehicles are going to ruin the United States. Somewhere between it will cause a major electrical grid failure lasting forever to if we don’t use more oil than the rest of the world our country will become weak leading to mass unemployment and a total...

Think of it as an oil change.

I think it is total BS our CT doesn’t have alarms to indicate you are getting close to something. Particularly with such limited vision. The rear camera helps but it is not substitute for an alarm. My old 14 year old F-150 I just sold has backup alarms! Sure, someday when “Tesla Vision” works….

This has been an issue for several years in wife's M3 and the same persists in the CT. When it happens to me, I get an annoying "beep, beep, beep" and the car it is worried about turns red color. It seems like the software doesn't project where the vehicle will be located by the time you get...

I parked the CT in the garage yesterday afternoon around 3 PM and inadvertently left the garage door open all night. I closed the Tesla app and turned off my Bluetooth to avoid waking the CT when I walk by while it sits in the garage. It got down to 60 F outside last night. This morning, I...

I wonder if it is the installer didn't set it up correctly. Tesla makes us use a Tesla certified installer, but most of the Tesla certified installers I've talked with have never had training or even installed a power share. A guy is coming today, and he talked like it would be very...

My wiper fluid was blue. The windshield was clean, but the residual water left on the windshield left a bit of a mess. It could be just a function of trying to clean an oversized windshield.

A test for a week in my garage while I was out of town yielded 8 miles/day loss. I had sentry mode off, but I noticed it was recording videos the whole time I was gone! On the sentry mode screen, there is a option to use “Camera Based Detection”. I had that on and even with sentry mode off...

Every auto manufacturer in the world has had “leftover” vehicles at one time or another. They sell them. That is why cars are made.

So how long until you get your non-foundation configure email? Even if they do start in January 2025, you won't get a non-FSCT configure email until 2027?

Are you forgetting there are 2 million plus reservations? I don't see the word "Limited" in Foundation Series. The only limit is the number of people willing to buy the FS. Let's say reservation number 2 million gets his opportunity to order a FSCT today. He has a choice, he can spend $20k...

Help me understand this as an AWD CT owner. I got the email and will have a $2,500 voucher to buy the PowerShare Gateway and Universal Wall Charger to be sent to my Tesla approved electrician. Will the $2,500 voucher cover the cost of the PowerShare Gateway and Universal Wall Charger? I'm...

I don't want my vehicles to honk or make a sound as I walk away when they lock. The old Cybertruck makes a sound that sounds like a vault closing. It is pretty funny, but I can't disable it. When I check "Locks" on the display, the Lock Confirmation Sound is off. Strangely, I can't turn it...

I just got a proposal to install the Power Share Gateway V2 and a Universal Wall Charger for $6,100. If I add one Power Wall 3 the cost goes up $13,450. I wanted the Power Wall to make the grid shutdown seamless. I also have solar panels they will tie into the Power Wall 3. I want to get...

My first loan was through Tesla and their bank. They initially wanted 10% down, then 20% down, then I was declined. The letter they are required to send when they decline a loan, indicated credit scores of 857 for both my wife and me. All of these loan applications eventually expired. After...

Our minor issues were: 1) Gas pedal needed a screw 2) Slight dent in fronk hood delivery person pointed out (I had trouble seeing) 3) Slight scrape in tailgate plastic delivery person pointed out (I thought wasn’t necessary to replace) 4) Windshield defog didn’t work on road trip once, displayed...

I used 6 gauge and it meets code for reasonable distances. 4 gauge is very thick and hard to work with.

Funny, you don’t really sound like a FROG (Friendly old retired guy)! Cheer up. I hate banks too!

The Tesla delivery people said to bring a cashier's check from the Navy CU on the day of purchase. It was super easy. I didn't put anything down. If you are putting $ down, I would consider a cashier's check from the CU and a cashier's check from your personal account totaling the cost. I...
