    So long friends, the 4 years were nice

    I remember when you bought that car. It's great to see your positive feedback on it. I've always been a Michelin tire guy. That's what I plan to buy when the time comes to replace the stock Pirelli tires. Have they performed well on your Model Y?

    So long friends, the 4 years were nice

    It is a bit of an extended family and I will miss that. And I'm really going to miss when some of you get your CT and post photos of them. Maybe there could be a thread all about that, and periodically some of us could check back in here, and see how that's working out. Cheers friend 🍻

    So long friends, the 4 years were nice

    EXACTLY! I bought mine from inventory with 5 miles on the odometer for less than 43K out the door. That's an incredible deal!!

    So long friends, the 4 years were nice

    Since the delivery event, I've been trying to figure out what to do. Friday when it was announced Point of Purchase credits were approved. I bought a new Model Y. I've been on this forum for over 4 years and it's going to be difficult, but now that I decided the Cybertruck is not in my future...

    Model Y anyone?

    I caught that Nike reference as I posted it. Which I found funny too. But if you look at his original post. He asked, "should I do it". So, I answered his question (sorta). I guess I kinda let my frustration out on this. This forum isn't nearly as fun for me as it used to be. There was a time...

    Model Y anyone?

    Why do people go on a public forum to ask advice for personal decisions? :rolleyes: If you want it, and can afford it. Just do it!

    Amazing drive through San Francisco in Driverless Waymo

    Whole Mars just recently posted this video of taking a driverless Waymo taxi in San Francisco with Chuck Cook (the guy who promoted FSD unprotected left turns). Anyway, it's kinda long, but it really shows the technology that is already available today. One of my favorite Butt puckering moments...

    GFTX New Entrance - Inspired by QC Light Tunnels Inspection Systems?

    It's obvious from the first photo that Elon posted. It's an infinity tunnel. Walk through there, and you are entering the Plaid Zone.

    The "Dutch Reach" and parallel parking safety!

    I would think this is because Amsterdam is the most bike friendly city in the world. And this is about looking out for safety of bicylists.

    Tesla Model S test drive

    That's Awesome, not only did Tesla lower the price. But now you get that fantastic red paint for no extra cost. I have a feeling there won't be very many new white ones, while that deal is around!

    Tesla Model S test drive

    Thanks for this awesome report. You convinced me, I need to test drive a Tesla. The Plaid Model S was created as a Halo product. The Cybertruck is more of a full utility vehicle. No way am I driving a Plaid. I don't want to get in my Cybertruck, and feel underwhelmed. But take that Model S...

    A beautiful 1985 ford f-150.. a case for the bench seating?

    The CT would be my first truck. Without a bench seat! 😂 My other trucks with a bench seat were my first vehicle. A 69 Chevy stepside. And my 63 Ranchero. I was looking forward to another pickup with a bench seat. But, it's not a dealbreaker if they don't come with a bench seat. Especially if...

    Can our GRID keep up with DEMAND?

    You're right condo, and apartment dwellers are going to have some pain for sure. It just really depends on situation of each household. When our home was built in 1970 things were way simpler, and 100 amp service was fine. But now put warmer temps, and we added AC, we added a granny flat for my...

    Can our GRID keep up with DEMAND?

    As others have said these stories should be seen as entertainment, and are misleading. One major part of the story nobody has brought up is that California has been shutting down power generation for years, and now they're saying we need more infrastructure. I've seen lots of power plants shut...

    Other Modes for FSD

    I've messed with my kids like that with the steering wheel. We live off a 50mph road and our turnoff is 90 degrees to the road. So, you go down the main road at 50-55 and don't slow down for the turn (but act like you're going to turn, way too fast), spin your hands over the wheel loosely...

    Total Solar Eclipse in Austin Texas, Apr 8, 2024 at 1:37 pm

    I've read that one of the thoughts most people have after a total eclipse is, When's the next one! It's hard to believe how quickly time has passed by since Aug. 2017. My family drove from So. Cal. to eastern Oregon and made our way to a destination I never thought I'd get to see, Joseph...

    Total Solar Eclipse in Austin Texas, Apr 8, 2024 at 1:37 pm

    This video was uploaded by a person driving around in Columbus, South Carolina during the Solar Eclipse in 2017. PLEASE, take notice of the beginning and end of this video. That is what it will be like if you are outside of the shadow of totality. It will be interesting, but you will only be...

    Total Solar Eclipse in Austin Texas, Apr 8, 2024 at 1:37 pm

    I recently reserved a house in Arkansas. And my wife tells me that ALL the houses we were looking at a couple of months ago are reserved. So I thought I'd revive this thread and give everyone a heads-up. Start making plans, or it's going to get more difficult soon!
