Nobody is disappointed if their new EV goes a lot farther than what they thought they bought. Everyone is disappointed when their new EV goes a lot less than what they thought they bought. Which strategy is smarter? Makers stating less than what buyers will actually get hurt themselves in...

My wife has a new X6 (obviously not EV but posting for BMW ownership info) that gets 600 mile range on a full tank, averages about 26 mpg on road trips, has hands free driving on the freeway that is fantastic, great software, excellent UI and infotainment, gorgeous interior, plenty of power, and...

While you are waiting for a response from somebody just duct tape that sucker up so that the cover is in place.

Holy cow that is expensive electricity! Roughly 40c per kWh? I pay 7.5c/kwh any time of day with no TOU to worry about. Your price is more than I pay at Tesla superchargers even (34c on average).

Now I have to question if you actually own a Tesla - how do you not know this? HW4 has been out since late 2023 and has been getting constant FSD updates, while those of us on HW3 are still waiting for v14lite to somewhat simulate what the newer cars get. There is zero doubt that FSD on the...

I can’t believe anyone would leave Lucid for Nvidia!

What will they charge you if you just return it as is and let them replace the tires? If it isn’t a huge savings to replace them yourself ahead of the return, just let them do it and save yourself the hassle.

Even just a row of free Tesla chargers set up by the office park? I have charged at destination L2 chargers at hotels that had issues and there was no phone # to call - I walked in and dealt with the hotel facilities folks.

All in good fun. The only thing my English major seems to be good for is being pedantic.

@hangup I don’t have any issue with your views and agree with them. My only disappointment is something you come so close on but just don’t get right: You eat steaks, not stakes. You slow your car down with brakes, not breaks. 😜😜😜😜😜😜😜

Same exact tire as the others when you had it replaced? Is it at significantly different tread depths?

Couldn’t troll farms also be set up to amplify positive experiences? What’s the difference, if all that sweet posting cash is driven by post counts? Or are all of the great service experiences real, but all of the bad ones are trolls and fake?

lol he has posted 3 times in a year, and all 3 are in this thread. That is some serious monetization!

If your office just installed these Tesla L2 chargers, you might double check to see if they are the universal version. If they are, then the adapter is actually a part of the unit and you can click the button to pull out the entire charger head including the J1772 adapter. If you don’t push...
