The most important part of using an A2Z is the little sliding lock on the underside. Work that sucker back and forth a dozen times even before getting to a supercharger. When you get to the supercharger, put the A2Z on the end of the charging wand. You have to push it ALL OF THE WAY ON. Now...

Yep, every time, it causes me to look down. Happens for new chapters in audiobooks, too. I hate it. Duck tape is a bit strong, but I'll bring a post it on my next road trip. To the person claiming a change in a digit of an odometer is equivalent to a popup box appearing, I disagree. The only...

Mine was hanging open when the truck was delivered. It's never snapped closed.

The automation for a door ajar is a good one. While traveling, I left the tailgate down in my truck by accident and lost 50mi range overnight. Fortunately I was near enough to a charger that it wasn’t anything ,ore than an inconvenience

Have you checked the flashlight? What about the Camp Speaker?

Ahhh. Those were the good old days.

They have infrared motion detectors. They detect something warm moving in front of them. They don’t detect their own movement.

My turn. A logging truck on local highway kicked up a rock this morning. An hour after I took this photo, there's a crack half way across the windshield.

I bought my R1T in January, so I know I'm way down on the list. I ordered the A2Z, and it arrived in time for a CA <> AZ road trip. I used RAN locations on the way out, but Tesla several times in Phoenix plus Cabazon on the way back. I bought the $12.99 (BEFORE TAX) charging membership in the...

This is really unfortunate. Beyond the safety issue, that big spark damages the Tesla cable’s connectors. Tesla may retaliate by forcing us non Tesla owners to do shit like register the serial number of the NACS adapter to ensure we only use the adapter they manufactured and supplied to Ford &...

I also ordered 3/16. Silence so far.

my Tesla Model S has handles that auto extend. The feature can be turned off when at home. The handles are touch sensitive, so opening a door just requires a touch.

As an owner of two Teslas with a history of missed promises for delivery, features, parts, and service, I feel I am qualified to bash Tesla on their promises. Tesla is the EV leader in most of the world. But, they aren't anywhere near perfect, and they certainly shouldn't be shielded from some...

Sure, people who ordered before the rush have one. No doubt there was a window of time where delivery was 3-4 weeks. That window will continue to stretch out as more people place orders hoping to get one before Tesla/Rivian can get around to delivering one. The Ford folks are reporting...

A week ago, I was in my Tesla model S and stopped at one of the superchargers with the Magic Dock. There was a Rivian R1T and a Chevy Bolt. I was impressed that the Bolt parked way off to one side, not even in a real parking spot to avoid taking two SC spots. And, the R1T was parked at the...

They're made by Tesla. Tesla is already behind fulfilling the demand from Ford owners. When GM joins the party, the backlog will be worse Yes, in a perfect world, Tesla would have ramped up production of these as soon as it made the agreements with GM, Ford, Rivian, and others. But, Tesla is...

It will be interesting to see if either of the two currently available (and reputable) 3rd party adapters can deliver by this Summer. We know neither Ford nor Rivian will be able to meet demand by then with the Tesla-sourced adapter.

Tesla publishes a map of its SCs which are open to NACS adapters: https://www.tesla.com/findus?v=2&bounds=37.228091868983476%2C-94.09572827197265%2C36.838366123258986%2C-94.93549572802733&zoom=11&filters=nacs&search=Joplin%2C%20MO%2C%20USA Joplin is not on the Tesla map, either.
