All good questions. It is a Tesla destination charger and it says there are 2 of them. I'm not clear on reserving the chargers and paying for the charge at the hotel, but I plan on asking at check-in. The paperwork says I will get the car at 80% charge and have to turn it in at 20% so by my...

We are renting a Y for our trip in 2 weeks and the deciding factor on the hotel was that one had a charger and one did not. All of the newer theatres around me have chargers as well as some of the restaurants. I think its a smart business move and as more and more people switch to EVs the...

Thanks. Leasing doesn't work that well with us since we stagger our cars so we only have 1 car payment at any given time (pay for it for 4 years, drive it for another 4 while my wife gets a new car). I'm certainly not giving up my spot in line for the CT, and I'm still eagerly watching the...

My understanding is that it is all called Ford Copilot 360 Assist 2.0. That package has the basics you would expect like adaptive cruise control, speed sign recognition, evasive steering/braking, and lane centering. Then they have the similarly named Ford Copilot 360 Active Assist 2.0 prep...

Unfortunately due to a wreck (everyone is okay), we are down a car and I need to accelerate my buying of a truck to the next 30 days or so. That obviously takes the CT, Lightning, or any other EV off the table for this purchase. I've been looking at Ford and am intrigued by their Active...

If I were a supplier for anything shipped to Austin, I would get really creative with my packaging on every shipment... and then just sit back and watch the chaos I caused :)

I would assume there would be a solar panel option.

Yep, but it made for a good internet yesterday: https://thechive.com/2021/07/20/jeff-bezos-went-to-space-and-the-internet-was-quick-to-ground-him-21-photos/

I see 2 major changes coming in EV charging in the next few years: - Businesses like restaurants, interstate gas stations, and other convenient travel stop locations will be installing chargers so that travelers can stop for 20-30 minutes to recharge and spend $ at their location. Places like...

Here is mine: Customer Charge $10.00 per meter Energy Charge (May–October) July 2021 Base rate per kWh $0.129402 MINUS the PCRF – $0.0320 = $0.097402 per kWh Energy Charge (May–October) June 2021 Base rate per kWh...

I cant wait to see video of a CT pushing a Lightning out of line at a Tesla supercharger.

Hopefully it does not get too hot. The wife and I are already planning on remaking the Whitesnake video as soon as mine arrives. For you youngins that did not get to experience the glory days of 80's hair bands:

Hmm.... my roomba routinely dry humps walls and furniture. As an added bonus the dog got sick when we were at dinner the other night and we came home to Rosie (our roomba) smearing dog crap all over the living room. Hopefully the CT is smarter than that :)

Franklins is supposed to be the best in town currently. The line forms hours before they actually open, and they do not let you cut in line, just ask Yeezy :) The Salt Lick was my favorite when I lived in Austin, but it is a fierce BBQ market and the best is always changing...

I would think that would just be an invitation for other drivers to mess with you and try to get the FSD to automatically brake, swerve, etc. People will get brave/stupid if they know the other car is smart enough to not hit them.

That is the million dollar question. As with many things in life, I will have to make that decision using the best info available at that time. All things equal, I pick the CT since it is the best value, but I suspect I will have to go with another option if I am looking to buy in 2022 (my CT...

That matches the Ford survey I received on my lightning reservation. The CT is definitely the better value at this point. Unfortunately there are lots of factors in play for me, including when my number is called for either, final price/features, etc. Ideally both Tesla and Ford will have...

I'm guessing some sort of jab at TX, but I'm not following the post either. I am happy that my google search history now includes "Cybertruck + Alamo" :)

It is hard to answer without specs, but I would prefer a CT that fits in my garage (even if barely) and they can cut the extra space from either the bed or frunk. I'm 6'2" with 2 adult sized teens, so a small backseat would be a deal breaker if the 4 of us cannot reasonably take the CT on a...

The Zetas/Los Zetas are all ex Mexico special forces hired by the Gulf Cartel as the "enforcers". When the Zetas got powerful enough, they went to war with the Gulf Cartel and started their own cartel. My father in law travels to Mexico on a weekly basis and has had 2 run-ins with the Zetas...
