Since Texas has a 100% ACV threshold, there's a much lower chance of it being totaled, but I seriously doubt it's going to be under $20k. Probably $20k in parts alone.

That makes sense, I wonder if you could benefit from switching to 220V if your solar generator would support it. Getting the juice out and into the car more quickly, so any parasitic losses are of shorter duration. EDIT: Even if you're hitting the max kW output of the generator, higher voltage...

That seems a little suspect, since it implies that we'd be seeing horrible efficiencies while charging at home at 11.5kW and even worse when charging 250+kW at Superchargers. I don't doubt the data you collected, but I wonder if there's another explanation for why you saw such a difference in...

It's the Tesla One app. You can download it off the Apple App Store (I assume Android) as well. You can log into the app using your normal Tesla credentials. I don't know if Tesla will accept the commissioning process from anyone but a certified installer, but you can definitely use the Tesla...

Mine is actually $4/month lower than my '24 Model Y AWD. Both are under $100/month, but since insurance varies so much by location I still found it interesting it was cheaper than the Y.

My install was $2,400, so it was a no-brainer. There are a couple different install options. You might want to make sure they haven’t picked an overly complicated and expensive option.

They've always had the capability to push updates over cell, they just usually don't. Perhaps the key card issue ranked important enough to push without WiFi. Possible there was a recall item in slipped in there.

Do you normally have WiFi access disabled? The vehicle will periodically wake on its own and connect to available WiFi. Unless your configuration requires manual intervention, there's no need to manually connect and check for updates. 3 weeks (or more) sounds about right since the last...

The hassle is being overblown. You only need to line up the 2 pieces on the initial install. With 7 spokes on the rim and 7 on the cover, it doesn't matter how you line it up on reinstall, it's always aligned unless you switch covers between wheels. A firm pull with 2 hands aligned at 2...

That's not really a Cybertruck issue, it's a problem with automatic car washes for most vehicles. Either use a sufficiently rigid frame to keep the tag from being bent or tape the edge to keep the brushes from catching it.

If I had to guess, it's the difference between a voucher (discount code) that zeros out the cost of the Gateway Bundle and a store credit (gift card) used to pay for an item (and tax). I don't know if there's any legal accounting requirement to do it that way, but it definitely seems to be the...

Finally deleted the app today. Remember to log into your account on the Tesla website and go into security to remove access that was granted to the Stats app.

Did you have any struggles installing the camera? I slipped re-attaching the mirror to my windshield in my Model X and pulled the camera mounting bracket off the windshield in one corner. Fortunately, I traded it in for my Cybertruck, so I didn't have to worry about it. I'd be utterly amazed...

Tesla wanted NACS to be the standard and they also want the federal subsidies that came with opening the network up. Ultimately, it should be in our favor, just a matter of some growing pains as charge port location gets standardized and capacity increases.

Mine is pretty anemic and it feels like it sprays on the up stroke and pauses on the down stroke. So it is halfway up the windshield before it has built pressure enough to spray the upper half of the blade. My driver side ends up fairly cleared and the passenger side is a mess of streaks. Of...

Seems like it's probably twice the price it should be, but that's not really out of line with any of the other accessories on the Tesla Shop. I went with the TC-BL compressor, that looks heavier duty based on available specs, no slime kit though.

It's certainly trained on actual driving footage that is hopefully both safe and legal, but that only covers how to drive. The second aspect of developing the road map and identifying all the potential obstacles is just as critical. Without knowing if it didn't see the red truck, didn't...

Given the number of humans that don't understand how to navigate a yield sign, it's not surprising that FSD is going to struggle. The red truck came out of the shadow of the overpass when the Cybertruck was a good ways into the turn, but obviously still before the yield sign. Without seeing...

How so? Looks to me like the Cybertruck blew through (I assume) a yield sign into the path of traffic with a green light. Could the red truck have moved over, sure; but they pretty clearly had the right of way and FSD should have yielded. That's exactly the kind of thing that needs to be...
