Ugly time of year for me to be getting away, as that's right when irrigation season is starting up. But I'll pencil it in on my calendar, even if I can only make it over there for one day.

Yeah I definitely was in too much of a rush yesterday and forgot my boilerplate do not use Klafehn as an example of how to do things safely. The putting his kids in danger is definitely a no bueno situation. But some of the things that need considering with your plan that have gotten into my...

I am just old enough to be the answer to life the universe and everything. :)

There's some yay and some meh in your ideas. I need to head out the door but I'll expand on my reaction after today's road trip. For now, I'll just ask have you seen what James Klafehn has done in this regard?

I'm sure Tesla has studied V2* technically and financially and brand image-ly and and and. After all that study, they came up with the wrong answer. Their assumptions and needs and cost/benefit are not my needs and cost benefit. I'll agree with you that most people won't have the technical know...

V2G in a grid down scenario is an oxymoron. Most of your comments need "V2L", or "V2H" substituted for V2G. And no, these are NOT synonymous. However, with the right equipment in the home, V2L can be used also as V2H seamlessly, albeit with a manual additional connection step. V2L is what the...

If Tesla buys the used car with FSD for resale, they can set a deadline of transfer before the sale to Tesla closes. If it's a third party sale, they have the responsibility to advertise correctly what they are selling (and therefore know what they are buying/taking in trade). If anyone...

I'm not thrilled by this. This should be a permanent policy, not a carrot and stick attempt to raise demand before Highland refresh, CT, etc show up. Do the right thing, Tesla, and make FSD transferable permanently.

That's a torch-ered metaphor if ever I've seen one.

When wearing your keep in mind....

The best explanation I've heard for why the velocity squared term exists in the equation PilotPete gave: As you speed up you both - Hit more molecules of air per second and/times - Hit each molecule of air "harder" (more momentum change from the car into each air molecule) Gives you X...

"Jalopnik tried to be journalists, and it cost them their credibility"

They should have dressed up the robot like the girls from the original Benny Benassi music video. Huge miss there. Also, the testing parameters are off. That derrière analogue is too narrow by at least 69%. (sarcasm of course)

FORD: Forked Over by Ridiculous Dealerships Even if the price to range and features ratio was exactly the same for the CT as the Lightning (doubt it will be), I still wouldn't want to set foot in a dealership. Caught too many of them in obvious lies in the last year and change of vehicle...

This song explains why I want "6 seats", or at least a low or removable center console: Thanks for explaining for me, Cake.

Because while its a secret they get lots of free buzz from speculation. The moment final numbers are released (end of Q3 at final reveal / delivery event), they get one more week, maybe two of buzz in analysis, then the party is over (and the real work of delivering begins).

Cargo tray in the hitch receiver.... I watched a couple try to negotiate this at the Montrose supercharger, which has one dispenser out by itself sort of kind of pull through style. Even with that available it was like an old Charlie Chaplin film watching them try to get close enough without...

Apparently manufacturing cars at any kind of scale is hard, even when you hire someone else to do the hardest parts. We didn't see a new car company get established in the US for how long? Tesla made it, Rivian might just pull it off if they can get through R2 scale up. Lucid? Fisker...

Short answer: this is very very very unlikely to be better. Unless there was some really crazy interference drag pocket between the body, rack, and contents, being in the already de-energized boundary and adjacent layers is better, even if it is 'messy'. anybody got access to AirShaper or...

If you thought parking under a tree and getting showered on by pigeon poop was bad...........
