That’s odd and way too much drainage. Have you checked the energy app on the truck? Hit the park tab and see what is consuming the energy.

I may have missed it but don’t see any delivery threads for the Dallas/Fort Worth area. What is the latest configuration date that’s received a VIN? And what’s the most recent configuration date to receive a delivery?

Although I hope that’s an accurate number, I have a hard time believing it. I guess I could believe it if it’s only a couple days a week with lots of start/stop between. I was an early January configuration and eVen though a month had passed since orders had opened, it’s hard to imagine more...

I received the 12/8 invite but didn’t configure for nearly a month. Oh well! Will be waiting another month or so I bet. That’s fine, soon enough it’ll be there.

The recessed receiver may also be to help aerodynamics bringing trailer another couple inches closer. No idea if that’s the case, could also be off-roading. At speed, every inch or two is going to have a big impact on drag. Also helps with maneuverability. That’s part of the strategy with...

I think battery technology was different between the ‘16 X and the ‘18 M3, so this isn’t a completely fair comparison, but charging to 80-90% and only once to my knowledge having it sit at 100% for more than a couple hours, my range maxed at 310 brand new and it’s now able to max at 286 (per the...

I’m an unabashed fan of these cars (and now truck), but I’m also a fair critic. It’s simply not true that the Cybertruck as a whole is a lower range vehicle. Just not true. Sure you can get a Model S with ~400. Other than that, if you have all season tires, then the AWD Cybertruck is the 2nd...

Unless you’re towing something or driving very fast AND in very cold weather, you’re very unlikely to only get 150 miles of overall range on a nonstop drive if you’ve charged all the way up. Possible, but not likely, unless you’re on a lower range Tesla.

For the longest time I charged my Model 3 to 90%. I’ve dialed it back to 85 or 80, and sometimes 90. Running down to 10% is fine. Okay, now as a practical matter, I’d never start my day around town with less than high 20%. If you want to take advantage of Sentry Mode (security) or remote A/C...

I have gotten to know that owner and have exchanged a number of emails over the years. One thing is that it is a fairly heavily modified airstream. I have a 25’ with FS on order, so I’m hopeful to achieve something similar to him. However, it may not be apples to apples. For example, the AC...

I had a paint issue and a couple other relatively minor issues when I received my M3. I was offered a credit or they would repaint the area that was a problem. I gladly took the credit and 6 years later I can’t even remember where the paint spots were because wear and tear has far “outshined”...

Thanks. I want to apply this to the various tow analyses. Doesn’t make any of them right or wrong. I just want datapoints to draw my own conclusions and shape driving habits to make it work when needed.

??? DM me if you’re thinking about it. Have a couple of things to navigate around, but otherwise would be a fun towing experiment.

I encourage you to come drive to Dallas! I have a 25’ Airstream for you to test ? Not sure when my truck will be here… March? If you want to make a roadtrip To test, I’m here!

There’s a lot of bad things said about FSD. Much of it I am convinced is from Detroit. Look, it’s not perfect. The cars are very fun to drive. However, there is literally nobody that is remotely close to the technology that Tesla has. That FSD package truly is amazing. I use it regularly in my...

Wasn’t suggesting that. Was showing the collective impact of overheat protection and sentry.

When parked in a garage with traffic, my M3 seems to lose 5-7% per day. When I went on a backpacking trip for 12 days over the summer, I disabled it (and cabin overheat protection) and came back with my car having lost only 1% after 12 days.

Could be an OTA update depending on what sensors are on the car. I wouldn’t put it past them…. Or count on it….

I don’t know the specifics, but here’s just one thread talking about it… https://www.airforums.com/forums/f463/land-rover-warning-weight-distribution-hitches-193981.html And who knows, it could be that Range Rover doesn’t have this is In their manual anymore. But at least at one point it did.

?This? Just reasonably comfortably get me from Texas to Colorado or Texas to Taos area.
