Yours is a rarefied existence. Most of us find half the chargers totally inoperable at any given time, and the other half will trick you into thinking they'll work only to fail at some point in the charging process 50% of the time.

“drawing as much as the pouce could handle” Why bother trying to argue with me when your argument contains tacit agreement?

I haven't seen this mentioned in other posts, so: Reset your GOM and drive normally for a week. It seems to me like you've got a lot of rowdy data clogging up your statistics (after you've made sure you're driving 75 and below, not hammering the environmental controls, making sure the tires are...

The chemistry of the gel in the individual battery pouches is the limiting factor.

I didn't know the exact weight, but I did make a point. Thank you though for the internal contradiction in your post. You said it adds 64 lbs of weight and then you said it doesn't add any weight. Which is it? I don't think 64 lbs is a true number. I think that's just the glass. There's also the...

Always delete the sunroof/moon roof. Reduces the weight by a LOT - 500 lbs depending on the vehicle. Reduce the number of holes in your roof that water will eventually find it's way in through. Get rid of some electromechanical BS that you're not going to use nearly as much as you think it...

"In the charging" Engrish is unacceptable in 2025. It's a no from me, dawg.

Probably the result of translating the text name of the phone to a binary number/checksum then bad re-translation for display purposes. Kind like when you see $@*amp& trash whenever there's punctuation marks in some text when text is run through some programs. Try changing the name of your phone...

Did you pay for the subscription? ?

I would accept that it's iOS 18.4's fault if it hadn't been going on since I got the truck in October 2022.

They're all like that, just embrace the suck and revel in Tesla people making Tesla faces at you. EV schadenfreude. By and large it's a software change only to these chargers, no hardware upgrades as far as I know.

I knew I'd booger something somewhere I caught the flu as a result of visiting houses with kids LOL

From my trip report from last weekend where I flailed around a lot before I figured out what was going on: As long as your savings is more than the cost of the Tesla subscription, it's worth the clicks. Tucson to Thousand Oaks and Back Again A Desert Hobbit's Tale

I've complained about this before. Since the beginning, mine drops consistently nearly every time I use my truck within the first 20-30 minutes of use. If it's not that then it's a failure to connect at the beginning of the drive when I first start the truck. I've wondered if the hangup is the...

Yeah just edited the previous reply... I think I'm running the numbers in a sensible way. I used to be a pilot - spent hours doing fuel burn calculations, but I'm out of practice and cost was never a concern because it was someone else's money (thanks taxpayers!).

I was aware of that. Edit: thinking about it more and doing math in public: Without the discount $12.99/$0.53/kWh = 24.51 kWh 24.51 kWh/2 mi/kWh = 11.6 miles With the discount $12.99/$0.41/kWh = 31.68 kWh 31.68 kWh/2 mi/kWh = 15.84 miles The delta is $4.24. I can probably save that by running...

Yes it does. All 16 chargers at the River Rd. site (for example) are there BUT for the four charging stops on the way back I didn't bother with the Tesla app at all. From now on I presume I'd only need it to verify a site's compatibility if the Ford database is in question. Another...

I actually tried that and nothing happened.

The Democratik Peoples Republik of Kalifornistan.

Probably. 99% of the time I'm at one of these sites and there's no one around because it's 2 or 3 am. Catching that couple in Simi Valley driving the MME who said they have had no issue just plugging into any charging post was pure luck. Had it not been for them I wouldn't have known and been...
