A somewhat specific question, but has anybody ever looked at this? City regen milage in hilly vs flat terrain?
Always been fascinated that, because of regeneration, electric vehicles get better "fuel" economy in city driving than highway cruising, which is the opposite of an ICE vehicle. As I...
To me the two biggest questions always were....
1. How thick is the stainless? And that turned out to be a third less than expected.
2. What battery chemistry is it? I really don't have an answer to that. I know the range turned out to be about a third less than expected, but why?
On that...
It only takes some pocket change to find out.
Is it as thick as a dime and a nickel?
Is it as thick as two dimes?
Is it as thick as quarter?
Is it as thick as two pennies?
Is it as thick as a penny and a dime?
Is it as thick as a brick?
I'm going with two pennies, because that's all the money I...

The latest video from Jordan Giesige at "The Limiting Factor" was just released and it concludes his thirteen-part series that began nine months ago, a few weeks before Tesla's "Battery Day". If you know anything about battery chemistry, it is quite compelling to view.
It is 74 minutes divided...
I think the CYBRTRK tailgate will be much heavier than any other tailgate anybody has seen before. I think most of you will agree with me.
The question is: How much will it weigh? I think with the (optional?) slide-out ramp, it will be far over 100 pounds. Possibly approaching 200 pounds. Will...
A few years ago I remember seeing a video of the screen controls for the "Air Blade" air conditioning system in today's Tesla models. (i think that's what they called it). I assume the CT will have something similar.
I spent more than a few minutes looking around for a good explanation of how...
NASA is developing an artificial intelligence which will be used to help future mars rovers pilot themselves with less human input.. And they need YOUR help.

They need humans to classify objects in images taken by...
In my experience...
The lithium ion battery is usually charged at high amperage from zero to eighty percent capacity and then the charger switches to a lower voltage profile and it takes about the same amount of time to get from 80 percent to 100 percent. It's fast to 80 percent, then much...
As far as i know, the only pics of the frunk and sail pillar compartment that have been seen are from 18:30 of the launch event. Shown below.
Looks like the wiper fluid can is in the frunk, and the sail pillar compartment is a triangular black hole.
I'm willing to bet that because the seat is so...
