Your videos are great, well shot, edited, without to much fluff.
I also noticed the drop in headache with bike racks on the new FSD.
One thing I really worry about with the new version of FSD is the critter avoidance aka emergency breaking for small birds etc. Especially with the inability for...
Yup the small critter avoidance with breaking is really bad.
Unfortunately this is likely going to be one of those things that stays until someone posts the FSD footage on X of the truck slamming on the breaks for a squirrel and getting giga rear-ended.
I wish there was a way to turn this...
Maybe missing this and all the other charge hype.
500kw (adding almost 1300 miles/hour of charging)
That is from over a year and a half ago by the way.
In fairness it looks like the vast majority of your charging is between 30-65%
Which is GREAT for battery life, quick charges, decent curve etc.
But for the guys pulling a trailer when 90% charge is needed to make it to the next supercharger (in the summer) the tail end of the charge curve is...
Sounds like you don't live in Los Angeles and live in a "fly over state" prepare to be bombarded for that comment that trailer with the CT doesn't work and even driving at highway speeds in cold weather and having to charge for 60mins to get to the next one somehow makes you a "tesla hater"
But...
Tape measure to make sure it fits, order a set of these to make it stupid easy how far to pull forward, keep it garaged, chews through to much power when outside.
No need to charge every 20 miles, but some parts of the country superchargers are 100+ miles apart, which is a real problem if towing a large load at highway speeds.
15-20min charges are also my norm on a road trip, which is A-OK for a pavement princess, but add a urander rack, trailer, etc and...
Air suspension can not handle that much weight, at about half that weight the truck now screams that it is over-weighted, that much water weight and along with people would likely wreck the air suspension.
Bottoms of these trucks should have come with Terrestrial from the factory....
They way the bottom is designed is not durable enough for commuting more less offroading.
This is one of those places where the "tough truck" guys take a hit as the bottom of the CT metal is super thin and the flap...
Lived in bear country a good bit of my life, if they smell food in there they are going to open it like a tin can. You are better off leaving it beside the truck and hope they don't smell it vs having your truck shredded trying (and failing) to keep them out of $100 in food.
I am just glad they are still moving ahead with it. Not 1 million CTs on the road to potentially sell one of these too so just glad they did not shelf the idea.
Unfortunately this was one of the big letdowns with the CT
Despite the 800v architecture, Tesla videos showing 500 kW charging, the charging rate is acceptable only for a short amount of time before the charge curve hammers it and slows charging.
The coping mechanism for this is "it is better...
