I don’t live in an area where is snows but have towed our trailer to the mountains several times and didn’t find the cold was a huge issue. However, I only had to deal with it for a week at a time. There are some things I wish were better like rattles and squeaks, also my inverter going out...
It's officially been 2 years since we got our FS CT. Have loved every minute. Don't see myself ever getting rid of it. Tesla sent the following message for feedback:
I had to reset the DAS many times in my model 3 because the cabin camera wasn't working reliably. Eventually went to epc.tesla.com and purchased a new cabin camera for less than $200. Put it in myself (very easy, many youtube videos on it). Never had to reset DAS again :)
Hopefully I don't get...
I'm sad Tesla changed their winter tire package. I bought the package last year and the tires were Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT's. The look is great and have done several snow trips and they have done fantastic. Day to day driving in dry conditions is also fine and road noise isn't terrible...
I have been extremely impressed with the improvements. I was also recently shocked that the truck pulled straight into a parking space in a crowded parking lot rather than backing in. It was very natural and caught me off guard.
Those Bluetti Apex 300s only have about 2.7kwh per pack. So even with two packs you can only add about 15 miles of real world range (6-7 if towing). That's a hell of a lot of money for 15 miles of range. I would love to have them, but can't justify the cost.
I didn't take the new horn because of the irreversible nature of it. However I thought I could always upgrade later if needed. But it's sounding like that choice was irreversible both ways, so now I'm stuck with the OG horn (which is fine I guess). Trying to keep my truck as original as possible...
I had the exact same issue. I ended up having to tear it off and now there is adhesive residue all around the camera. I'll need to buy some adhesive remover to get it off. I also loved the cover, but unfortunately if it can't survive a wash then it's pointless.
That's awesome! I live in a hilly area and my average intown range (driving in Chill mode, winter tire package, tonneau closed) is about 450 wh/mile. I can achieve your numbers if I go mostly downhill though haha.
My towing numbers hover between 900-1000 wh/mile towing ~4500 pounds
Would be awesome if they can include the Winter Tire package as an option. I had those put on (bought through tesla shop and installed at service center) a while back and love the look of them. I'm sure it affects range a bit...
I drive in chill mode all the time (which is still too quick in my opinion compared to similar sized trucks), and my wife drives in standard mode most the time (we drive about 50/50). After 8k miles I needed new tires.
I now have the winter tire package on from Tesla and have gone about 3k...
