Whoop whoop whoop. Helicopter fans. Gimme my $50k CT! The more they make the cheaper they get...and then send some to AU pls. :ROFLMAO:

Thats provided you have a dense enough high power DC chatger network to cover your trip. We just got a bunch of new chargers over the last year in our state, and on one route we have 150kW chargers and another with a single SC V3 and a different one with a lowly 50kW. On both routes there are...

Without wanting to sound pedantic, was it night vision or thermal (FLIR)? Because thermal really helps long range detection of people and wildlife, especially kangaroos around here. Anything warm blooded.

Based off the pack size used in the CB/CT AWD at 125kWh, and the 4680 discharge C-rate , the battery would not seem to be the bottleneck in this scenario. Also running at 800V would make it easier to get more power from the setups they use, including the inverters. The question here is why you...

lol not much changed here I see. :p

Why so many screens and no thermal camera setup? You know to avoid all them jolly jumpers. ;-) BTW with your rear-view mirror screen on your M3P, did you have to run power up there to run it or was there some power up there already? The other way to do it is to get a Android device and run...

Yikes, that's not really good efficiency from the generator. Better off running a Diesel ICE? ;) 1 Gallon Gasoline thermal energy is 36kWh which results in 6.5kWh of charge so around 18%?

Road surface conditions, rolling resistance and terrain. Example: Sand is boggy and requires you to dig through it which uses more energy than rolling along a flat hard surface. Also you need to run lower air pressure for flotation, which in turn increases rolling resistance as well. If at speed...

I would be interested in someone doing a test in a safe and control manner, to show how the Cybertruck reacts on a steep slope, and which wheels are actively braked or not. For example on a slope and having the two parking brake wheels on a slippery surface, and the other two wheels...

Mostly. He's not fallible and still human after all. But on balance his opinions are based in reality not fiction, so his footing is fairly solid. I think he does have a strong technical background to support his views, which when you get down to it, is why his views are closer to reality than...

That's what you get if you try swimming against the current.

Probably one of the most important uses of lead worldwide is to protect your gold and silver. The ways of the west. ;) Honestly I doubt there will be many places to go in such a situation, and do so willingly, unless you happen to be stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time. Better off trying...

Was this a more recent delivery and failure or a while back? Issue should of been sorted by now really if its the wiring harness one.

That Gosun roofrack solar product looks like it uses more energy to drive 30-40miles on a CT, from aerodynamic drag, than it can produce in a day from solar. So you pay $3000 to make your EV lose range, so you have to leave it parked all day and can't drive it during the day, all just to get...

Middle Earth. Every road is downhill there until you get to the centre, at which point you fly. ;)

I wonder how the CV joints will go with this mod, and if it affects EV range on-road at all, and if the suspension ride is stiffer because of the higher airbag pressure to maintain the ride height? Probably only worth considering if you really need the extra clearance. Ideally, Tesla would...

I remember all the long conversations we had about if the front was or wasn't SbW...good times. My biggest concern with the squircle was how it would react to hard impacts, like off-road and driving up curbs, and kickback the steering wheel with hard angles. Obviously, having SbW means you can...

I quite liked the 2024 Stockholder meeting and how EM slid straight into lots of the "reasons" why he was happy for the shareholder support of his overall mission, including Optimus and AI/FSD, both very profitable for Tesla shareholders here on earth, and most importantly essential for first...

I assume you recieved it in the USA and not Australia though, right?

I suppose that is a valid argument for road users with lots of frequent flier miles with the cops....lol. ? But overall black has to be the worst colour for a non-undercover cop car, and definitely needs more lights everywhere. Good job it's not a real one.
