The frunk is not usable in cold, snowy, and icy weather. I NEVER open it in the cold weather unless I'm at home. Once, when I was a couple hundred miles away, it got stuck cracked open and would not open or close no matter what. So it had to be towed for repair. The door handles will...

Now who's competitive? 🤔

Can't respond... Driving

I can actually feel the draft from the top of the window significantly INCREASE when I get passed by a semi on a cold day due to the change in airflow outside the window/door. And I have the foam.

My understanding is that at least some of the draft comes up through the door back by the B pillar, runs up to the top of the door and then comes away from the door... Directly into the left side of my bald head. Been happening for 3 years now. I keep a hat and gloves in my car because the...

I don't know if my issue was a bad module. Part of what I learned is that for such an advanced piece of engineering, there's definitely some questionable design elements that can cripple the car. In my case, the charge port door motor failed likely because it was not and is not protected...

I learned an awful lot from this experience. If anyone has a similar experience with a charge port door motor failure and the associated other failures and warnings, send me a DM. I might be able to help. Hope it doesn't happen to you... Or to me again

I don't believe so. I think I'm being charged the same as I would be if I was at a service center

I clearly didn't pay attention to the time duration of the warranty for obvious reasons lol

Isn't the original warranty 50k miles or 36 months whichever comes first?

Reliability is one issue. The other is repair costs. I think you and I are several of a few dozen here who are out of warranty. Seems like you are still getting warranty-level service if they are getting you rentals and towing your car for you. I haven't been that fortunate. No rentals...

I'm not sure if 2024 builds have the hardware or not. So I can't say. I'd assume not but that's just a guess.

So, you slept in the car and used creature comfort mode to keep it warm?

It's not ideal, but, I'd recommend one of the portable powerbanks designed for CPAP use. And, if you were not already aware, you can save a lot of power consumption if you either skip the humidifier or just use it as pass-over humidification and not heated.

I get it. I was saying that for me, with the amount I drive, it's about my own efficiency with my time during the day. I also charge at home at night. But when I'm regularly driving 250+/day seeing my customers, if I don't try to maximize, I lose productivity. I'm not talking about road...

You're not comparing apples to apples. In a gas vehicle, it's infinitely easier and faster to refuel and the vehicles generally have a greater range to begin with. If my EV had a range of 500 miles and I could charge to full in 5-10 minutes at any corner, I wouldn't care much. But that's not...

Yes. But only if the vehicle was equipped with all the hardware at the time it was manufactured. I believe that is limited to the early builds before they changed their manufacturing lines

I can see how that would be helpful and insightful. But, it would have to be a massive amount of data as many of us probably charge almost nightly at home. And, since I'm fortunate enough to have a decent number of EA stations in my geography and I still have free EA (for another 2 months), I...

That's going to be quite interesting to see how many charging sessions I/we have. I charge at home a lot. But, with the amount of daily driving I do, there has to be close to 300 EA charging sessions over the almost 3 years
