Yeah saw this. I watch a lot of Out of Spec videos.
But i find it interestingthat it takes 240Kw to go 450miles in a Silverado and a CT can do 320 with 123. I know superchargers can't do 350kw charging yet but it is coming and out of spec proved the CT will do 350 with some adapters and an EA...
Has anyone considered/used a retractable windshield sun shade? The whole nonsense of folding something out and jamming it into position kinda takes the fun out of things. Considering this truck is full of tech and has a mechanized tonneau traditional sun shields seem archaic.
Saw this on Amazon...
This thread was not what I was expecting, but does anyone else think it would be useful if the small led behind the door open button illuminated when you approach the truck?
I have the same thing. My service appointment is 3 weeks out and to be honest I would rather fix it myself because Tesla service folks have a tendency to break clips.
I checked out the service site but the instructions on releasing the clips are vague. I managed to get two unclipped with a...
So, 3 days into ownership and the wife suggested we use the CT and trailer to head to her friends to pickup some stuff she left there.
I started doing some napkin math and watched some videos to get a rough idea of what to expect with a 70 mile roundtrip.
Worst case I was thinking about...
Yeah I agree. They are masters of cost reduction. I'm just thinking more about materials, especially the steel. Also labor costs are almost parabolic. I know the line is pushing for the highest percentage of robotic manufacturing which alleviates this of course. It will be interesting to see...
Honestly, I'm not sure how they are going to sell this truck for 80k or less. Tesla has come a long way and the quality of build and finish is remarkable in my opinion.
I'm also curious what the material differences will be between FS and the regular version. Wheels, Alcantera liner, accent...
Not worth reporting to insurance and police for 2k. You will lose more in value when and if you ever decide to sell it. That unfortunately is the unfair world we live in these days.
It should be negligible. The seats are black on either trim and would absorb most of the thermal gain. As a percentage of internal surface area, the color variable is probably less than 5 percent and on verticals
It's funny. I've been seeing poor network connectivity recently in my S. It takes a long time to get an LTE signal. Not sure if it's network related or a recent bug. It finally establishes a data feed but takes longer than it usually did.
Maybe Tesla are late paying their cell provider "family...
I always wonder about whether the driver has a valid license and insurance. Here in California it seems you can get away with it. Back in the UK, if you got caught driving without a license or insurance, the cops towed your vehicle away and crushed it. I can only hope one day they will do...
Thanks for the ballpark delivery times. As you are in PS I'm sure its similar to LA not to mention its your second CT so it seems you know the routine! (y)
