Stay off will turn everything off, including the center display. It's basically an energy conservation mode even moreso than normal. None of the things that turn on when you, say, enter the car will do so until you push the brake. And you are correct - pet mode just keeps climate control on...

Not every v3 location has been opened. Trust the app. Also can check the Tesla app for this information as well.

Wrong.

That's a major pain. Sorry. Missouri tag/titling (well, at least Kansas City) is legitimately the worst govt service ever.

Crazy. We also got a drive-away Illinois temporary tag that didn't expire for two months. That helped.

Whoa. Where in Missouri are you? I just got ours (also leased) tagged here in KC. We had to do it - not Rivian/Chase Financial.

Yeah, not saying you won't occasionally find them down or not working well - and that's unacceptable. I just believe that EA has made reliability progress in the last year+ and, at least here in the middle of the country, seem to now be as reliable as most everyone else. What we need to...

Ditto. Nothing but good EA experiences here. In fact, the worst charging experience I've had in the last six months was a derating Tesla Supercharger that wouldn't deliver over 300 amps just a minute into the session.

If it was profitable to insure people at lower prices, a company would offer it. But it isn't. Insurance is a straight numbers business. These companies wouldn't be exiting markets if there was a way to make money. But the loss risk is just too high. It's frustrating as a consumer but I also...

Insurance in general is just a super tough business right now. Between the cost of repairs (skyrocketing on vehicles and rising on homes), more weather events in the middle of the country (hail/wind events) and fires out west, it's hard for the companies to make money. I expect it to continue...

This, to me, is the largest issue. If you're going to tow a good amount, nothing beats kWh capacity. The G2 large pack's significantly lower capacity is the biggest downgrade in G2.

Driving style will always have a larger influence on range than tires/wheels (other than in the extreme). But yes, there is data to support a range increase. Low rolling resistance/less drag/less weight of wheel/tire combos all impact range.

Reason is almost certainly cost. A different supplier or more efficient assembly or a combo of the two. I don't expect anything in this refresh that isn't a cost savings. It may also have a functional or aesthetic value, but first and foremost it's about getting cost of assembly down, even if...

I always plug the adapter to the cable first. Then just plug in like a normal CCS charger. Works great. And Plug-and-Charge works perfectly, so no need to have the Tesla app open at all (unless you subscribe - then you need to use the app to activate the charger before plugging in).

It will lower from high to standard regardless of your setting. I haven't figured out when it goes from standard to low when it's on auto height.

All the opposition, when this topper design is the best for efficiency, surprises me. It's not a shape for everyone (including me), but someone needed to make one and I'm glad they did.

Also would recommend the 4x4 Colorado Alto Mini as a great option. Their tents are very impressive.

Ditto this - after a few sessions the handle will insert easier and you can tell it fully locks.

I both ordered an A2Z adapter, and then was fortunate to get in at number 93 on the Tesla produced Ford adapter for my Lightning. Since we're leasing the R1T, I stuck the one from Ford in it, and am continuing to use (and love) the A2Z with my Lightning. The R1T is my wife's, and the...

If you decide going this route is the right plan, you could set your charge limit to 50%, then raise it a few days before arriving. At ~1 kW rate of charge from a 120 outlet, you'd need ~65 hours to get to 100%. If you even need to get that high . If you don't need 100% at your place, raise it...
