    Round or square? Buttons or stalks?

    Round wheel (semi-flattened bottom okay), and stalks. This is the way.

    Purported Tesla Employee Confirms No 240v Outlet

    I really hope this Intel is inaccurate. No 240V outlet would be a major missing feature. If the intel is true ... Well then Tesla needs to pull it's head out of it's posterior about V2L /H / G

    PREDICTION: Cybertruck Accessory = Wireless Charging

    I'll call the OPs conclusions plausible, but my guess is probably not available at launch. Something they plan to bring out in the future and reserved space for now makes sense. If there is a similar blank space on Highland / Juniper refreshes, I'll believe that it's ready for prime time...

    Trailer towing Range

    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_coefficient Notice the "angled cube" vs "cube". Despite the angled cube presenting a wider total cross section to the wind at its mid point, because it gets to that maximum cross section and back more slowly and evenly, it actually has a lower coefficient of drag...

    50000+ Superchargers

    Good job Tesla in getting the ball rolling. Job is not done though, still quite a few rural gaps to close in the US: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/7794429/ And a few other countries that could use an alternative to fossil fuel infrastructure. Job security for SC factory workers for...

    RC Decal'd Cybertruck spotted at Las Vegas Tesla Supercharger [new video added]

    I wonder how much Royal Crown cola paid for that advertisement placement.... (sarcasm)

    Let's be honest - who disliked and/or was repulsed by the Cybertruck when they first saw it?

    First ten minute reservation holder, in spite of the visual design, not because of it. Features and announced price were what got me in line. A month or so later, I saw some CGI of it blacked out, that definitely helped. Normally murdered cars look like try hards to me, but stealth actually...

    Article: CyberTruck has a HUGE problem, needs a FULL REDESIGN...

    Who's going to write the "Click bait based media is a huge problem: complete overhaul needed" article?

    CyberTruck home charger

    Are any actually commercially released yet? I know plenty that have been announced, some in testing, but none actually available for order yet AFAIK?

    Trailer towing Range

    They should be largely similar, but there are a couple of extra variables. ICE engines have a concept of Brake (horsepower) Specific Fuel Consumption (BSFC). Depending on the engine, this is rarely a perfectly linear relationship between "power produced" and "fuel consumed". There may be ways to...

    Jailbreak Tesla

    Yeah, but... ... laws are not always written correctly ... ... laws are far too often written to mess with the market in ways that don't need to happen ... ... laws sometimes need to be broken to prove why the law is wrong as it is written and/ or enforced ... Collecting rainwater and...

    Why Americans Prefer Gas over Electric Still

    I kind of let The Onion fall off my radar. But this was amusing. Might start reading again, even with the website compatibility issues. Damn good satire, many of the answers feel like the "reasons" I get from the most ill informed of the anti-EV crowd in my town.

    Hotel charging will be frustrating for a while.

    I have stayed in a lot of hotels in my day, mostly midgrade through full service Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, etc. Granted, I've been traveling far less recently. I've never seen one to have any kind of EVSE reservation, priority, or valet service where the hotel didn't already have a full time...

    Jailbreak Tesla

    In the US, we have the Magnuson Moss Act, which speaks to OEMs invalidating warranties. According to https://www.autocare.org/government-relations/current-issues/Magnuson-Moss-Warranty-Act "Furthermore, a manufacturer can only deny warranty coverage if it can demonstrate that a non-original...
