You're lucky! I cancelled my manual cover in June, told a check should be received in 4 to 6 weeks. And again, and again, and here we are 9 month later and still no refund. This is the only issue I have in 15 months and 19,000 miles, and everything else is perfect. Was told last week to...

R1T with 19,000 miles and a few long road trips, along with many 250 mile one way trips. Charging was touchy initially but could have been some user error considering the various providers, along with 20-30% bad chargers, but getting better. Also have Tesla Y with 38,000, and charging on road...

Speaking of destination chargers, I've just installed two Tesla majicDoc wall connecters at The Schooner Inn on the oceanfront in Va Beach. They have the adapter for J1772, and it locks to the wall connector when using the NACS, and locks to the NACS when you need the J1772. Does...

I'm at a negative 97'......but that was in a tunnel under the El negative 97,,,,,,under the James River in Va.

It looks as tho the tree in actually in the back seat! Let's ride!

I figure a more robust piece of equipment is less likely to fail, overheat, or cause issues, than one which is working at capacity.

We haven't seen more than a dozen in a year around Charlottesville Va. We're still a novelty getting questioning stares.

We were on road trip, 45f, headed for DCFC, motor temps spiked to 280f. Pulled off, temps dropped uncannily fast. Called emergency services, she said don't worry till they reach 303f. No explanation. Cancelled preconditioning, resulting in normal temps.

I've just tried out a 80A 240v EVDance Tesla to J1772 adapter. I tried it on my 60A 240v Tesla wall connecter, Charging my R1T, at 20-25 mph. After an hour ad a half, ambient temp was 50f, Tesla cable was 63f, Tesla plug was 73f, and the EVDance adapter was 68f. I'm well pleased. I will no...

2022 #16,483 R1T 16,000 miles. We are happy campers, with both model Y, and R1T. The ONLY issue has been with DCFC's, including one EV GOne, where 4 out of 4 plugs did not work, and with 72 miles on the battery and 66 miles till the closest DCFC, in the mountains of PA. My wife was sweating...

I believe it is a good start, but the blade won't provide any stopping power. I've installed a Westin SS bump step, with 28" width & 3" thickness, to provide a bit of distance from parallel parking incompetence. It may not stop a rearender, but will minimize those scrapes, and is very useful...

We were traveling in New York on road trip Charlottesville to Boston this morning, 40 degreesF, 75mph, and happened to check the temps. We were preconditioning, and all of a sudden the temp of all 4 motors spiked from 125 to 277 (redlined at 275) with temps rising a degree every second or two...

If you are comparing charging of vehicles, why would you compare Miles in 6 minutes. Different EV's have different efficiencies and battery size and how quickly they can accept charging. Try comparing KWH in 6 minutes, then translate to range/drive mode, etc. Dumb test as stated. My Tesla Y...

Abstract Oceans offer nice caps. I ended up having my son 3d print some in yellow, and attached the logo caps to them. I pulled the logos off of the aero caps and spray painted yellow, the logo compass before attaching them. Next time, I would have him print the caps 1/8" thicker, so that...

So at RAN fast chargers just opened in Waynesboro Va, they are free for now. The 6 plugs are labeled 1a,b,c and 2a,b,c. I suppose they like Tesla chargers and labeled thus so that you know not to tap into 1b when 1a or c is in use, thus cutting power that plug?. I was plugged In charging at...

Just rotated front to back. 20% of my driving is in conserve, on interstates. My new spare tread reads 7.5mm. After 9,400 miles, LF 6.9mm LR 6.4 RF 5.0 RR 6.1. So front delta is 1.6 & 2.5mm or 21% & 33% Rear delta is 1.1 & 1.4mm or 15% & 19%. So in my case & driving, yes...

We've had both. A 50A nema 14-50 (Hubble) charging Tesla Y and R1T was OK. It took some coordination occasionally, but very workable. Built a new garage closer to the house, and had to install new 200A service. So naturally, I installed 60A Tesla wall charger, and 60A (Tesla brand) wall...

I went to local tire shop & had tires rotated & balanced. Using my brightly polished pucks, they tried to lift it on a 4 point lift. Using their rubber padded round lift points, they wanted to slide off the lift. They switched to a rectangular lift point, metal contact point, but with 2 edges...

I too now have a Tesla (NCCS) for wife's Y, and Tesla (j1772) for R1T, both 60A, separate circuits, for past 4 months. Both working like champs, absolutely no issues. Had to run new electric service to new garage for EVs, so I sprung for two level 2's while I was at it. Have 50A Hubble 14-50...

I cancelled my $800 manual cover (as well as loss of the $3500 powered one) in favor of a rollup, that I don't have to clear the gear tunnel to store. So YES, I'm looking for the right one.
