As a long time Tesla owner coming to the Lightning, honestly my single gripe about the car is the road trip planning experience. First off: the built in Nav is pretty bad. Around Silicon Valley it picks fairly horrible routes that locals know not to do, like attempted to get on a metered...

the car does not automatically condition other than to prevent the battery from getting critically low. To precondition you have to set a departure time in the app. You can also do a weaker form of preconditioning by remote starting the car too, though you really want to extend the start at...

Honestly if you have pedal fatigue, I find the two pedal driving on the Lightning to be fairly excellent. The brake pedal has smooth travel and after a day of practice I consistently get 97% or above on the braking coach. You're not losing out on much efficiency compared to 1 pedal driving if...

Yep and just to add, this is pretty consistent across most EVs. We even have a Model Y with a heat pump and the current 15 degree F weather also obliterates range. In theory it should be able to allow me to run cabin heat more liberally, but we usually wear coats in our cars and heat to 62-64 no...

Yeah ditto. In our 2022 Model Y the Pro Max sized phones simply don’t line up to charge. They just heat up insanely before draining. Some people have more luck with them upside down. Honestly the Lightning wireless pad isn’t working much better for my 14 Pro Max. It charged maybe 3% in an hour...

I don’t speed a ton on the highways when road tripping because I just end up paying it back while charging, BUT around town a RD comes in very handy. Just yesterday I turned right towards our county court buildings and got a radar hit, looked down, was already going 40 in a 25. The Lightning is...

No warnings from v1G2 either.

UPDATE: Went back out to my car this morning to try it again and this time it let me set a backup passcode! I guess keep trying!

If you’re wastefully speeding up and slowing down on 1 pedal mode, it is less efficient, but not to a huge extent compared to the energy it takes to push your 6200lb pickup truck through the air. If it gets to the point that it matters, please supply plenty of Dramamine for your passengers...

Has anyone found a solution for the “backup passcode not saved, contact dealer for service” error? PAAK works great for me but I can’t set a backup passcode which makes me too afraid to rely on it!
