Yes trying to find out if anyone with a Tesla can share their cold weather travel experiences.
My wife rides with me and heat is not a option but butt warmers and warm air coming from a vent on her may work. I know the problem, just not the answer.
Today I traveled to some appointments I had in another city, I drove over 230 miles from home and back. It has snowed here already and I had some thoughts on the dual motor range. I use the defrosters the whole time during the travels to warm the interior space and to keep the windshield clear...
I think mirrors will be used on the cybertruck, no camera problems and always on..lol. To have cameras in addition side mirrors I could see that. Wiper is going to be interesting the front glass is so big the only way to cover it with a wiper might be a single wiper arm so it can reach near the...
I like your idea of a locking diff or 4 motors, decades ago I almost sunk my truck while launching my boat the boat ramp on one side had gravel under the waterline, everytime I tried to get the trailer out my truck slide farther in the water. The whole back side of the truck was in the water...
The Cybertruck is rated for 3500 ibs payload in the bed, This tire size has E or F load rating which enables the rated capacity, I think the dual motor has a 690 hp and the tri motor is 800 hp it requires a tire that can handle the load and power. For me I would like the tires on a 18" rim for...
Cybertruck rolled out on stage with 35" tires made by Goodyear. At this time that particular tire is not
in production with the special spoke moulding on the side wall. What rim and tires sizes would you like to
see as a option? The rim size is not mentioned so this is my best guess.
35 12.5 r...
I don't know which BMW is being referred to but, I did look up the 1600 and yeah it is being sold for more than when it was new but this may fall under collectable.
How effective Is Tesla's off road prowess compared to a Rivian. The Rivian
having 4 motors ( one per wheel ) may have better wheel control then a Tesla
Dual or Tri motor under extreme conditions. Tesla will have to use the braking
system to transfer power to the wheel without traction, no...
We are required to carry a shovel and a bucket when using the old logging roads.....Nice list I would add first aid, rope, matches and a flashlight plus water. GPS or map really important, we have more dirt roads then paved.
Technology changes things of today in just few months, look at home computers same thing happens, before it's a year old the new one is out and better.
When I look at a vehicle purchase I consider if it will fit my needs for the next ten years, I don't have the personal wealth to consider a...
I remember that truck, I thought it was awesome. I knew the scale was a little too big but the concept, I wanted one and still do. A serious piece of equipment that would have a better rating than the average 1 ton truck. Commanding view of the road to see over everyone else. More than a full...
I am curious were superchargers will go in a city type setting our Costco is very close to a strip mall. The mall ( stores indoors under common roof ) that I go to once in a while has a hotel connected to it and has a couple destination chargers, the mall is slowly losing foot traffic even...
Did anyone else in big sky country plan on buying Cybertruck? I think it will excel in many uses and seasons.
I plan on home charging mostly, Tesla has plans to expand the supercharger network and hopefully we get some along highway 2.
I remember all of my dad's vehicle's from 60-70's had no cup holders and that phrase that came with your drink" don't spill you drink hold on to it' honestly I am glad car makers have heard or experienced the problem of soda cans or coffee cups riding along with occupants, we all need to be...
You have hit the nail on the head....bravo bravo, I have to drive 90 plus miles to Kalispell where the major box stores are. It's worth the trip for me when I have to buy supplies in quantity. I have have driven the distance in the middle of winter, you can barely make out where the road is so I...
I always had planned on charging at home, two years ago I had my local utility company put in a bigger transformer so I could have two 200 amp service panels for home and shop. I had planned for a BEV as part of my vehicle future. You are right the beauty of EV's are charge at home at very...
I wholeheartedly agree with you on a longer range CT. I also have a Dual motor on reservation. I am not really happy with the range of the dual motor. 250 miles on single motor, dual motor 300 miles and 500 miles for tri-motor. I think it should of been 300 miles, 400 miles and 500 miles at...
I believe all three variants of CT will have the 4680 cell, It will have the energy to cover the distance that Elon stated, plus it will charge much faster with tabless battery design. The tri-motor( I truly would love to own it) will definitely need this battery to be able to travel 500 miles...
