It's not following distance, really -- probably more like "following time". Possibly non-linear, because of how humans perceive as "comfortable".

They have pretty decent range (248 miles?) but they charge very slowly. I have to say -- we really didn't see that many EVs at all on I-5. The Bay Area is overrun with them, especially Teslas, but I think people still prefer to drive their ICEs on long trips.

We just got back from our trip, and I'm happy to report that it was more or less without drama. We stopped at Kettleman City on the way out, where two of the ten stations were inoperative, and five of the remaining eight were occupied by Chevy Bolts. And there was a line of five cars. So...

I read that too, but no -- the car was charging all night, and I opened the trunk to put the charging cable bag back into it. Then it wouldn't close.

Our experience is similar (2023 Air Touring). We just drove from the SF Bay Area to LA, and I estimate that we're getting no more than about 300, if that. But we can't realistically drive at less than about 75 mph on I-5, and the weather is cool (~55-60 F). (I'm a little surprised that lower...

As mysteriously as it stopped working, it started working too. The software engineer in me is screaming -- "Can I see the logs?" Oh well.

Thanks. I thought I did exactly that -- the trunk closes fine if I do it manually, and then opens properly, but then won't power-close. But I'll do it again and see.

The trunk on my AT suddenly stopped closing this morning. We made a ~400 mile trip down to Southern California on Friday, and everything was fine yesterday. I plugged the car in to a 14-50 socket to charge overnight, which went smoothly, but when I went to put the charging cable back into the...

Yeah, maybe stop at Kettleman City first anyway, even though I'll probably be at 50% or more then.

We're taking our AT for more or less its first long-distance drive tomorrow (from San Ramon to Pomona), and would like it to be as fuss-free as possible (who wouldn't?). Starting with 100% SOC, ABRP recommends just one stop in Lost Hills, which is an EA station. But not a particularly big one...

I saw this yesterday, but only once. Maybe it's a bug introduced with the faster surround view bring-up that they introduced in the last update.

:) One of the bears, right? I don't have bears on mine (owning as I do a humble Touring).

That would be one portly penguin!

This started happening a couple of days ago. Customer service suggested a manual reset by "pulling the inside release beyond normal range", but that didn't help. Awaiting further instructions. (It's a 2023 Air Touring, purchased in December). Notice the paint scuffing on top of the handle: I...

I see. Sigh.

I can't figure out how to change the avatar photo for my wife's profile. The manual seems to indicate that this is possible via the mobile app, but there is no mention of the secondary user on the app. (I know both of us have to log in using the primary account, so that's what we've done)...

Doh -- color me stupid. I tried everything but the most obvious button -- the middle one in this picture!

Both our Tesla Model 3 and our Audi e-tron GT have a way of changing the following distance while in adaptive cruise. The display seems to show several bars, indicative of such a setting, but I can't figure it out. Future update, perhaps?

We haven’t seen this problem for a while, and so we’re assuming it somehow got fixed in one of the software updates.

At any rate -- it's now working with both users. I think it was a reset and re-pair that did it, but who knows? (In fact, it switched to my wife's profile when we got back into the car after going somewhere, and I was able to switch it back, and CarPlay started for both profiles).
