It’s different. My wife likes that BC leaves you with some control to “help out” vs FSD where it is you or it. I prefer FSD because for the most part it does everything everywhere with a few annoying exceptions (school zones, special times for left turns, bad routing choices). I would still like...
It was waiting so long to go and was so slow to catch up to speed I gave up using it. It was enough of a gap for two cars to cut if they wanted to and enough that if someone was behind and they honked they would be justified, more importantly my wife would have been able to ask if I was going to...
I use Tesla FSD during the week for myself and we take the Lightning on trips when we have the dogs. I’m used to FSD doing everything. If traffic stops, or there is a light or waiting for a stop sign with multiple cars in front I do nothing and it stays at the right 2 sec car distance. BC not...
I had a semi slow and make me pass then blast his horn when I followed behind. And I was’t even trying to hyper mile behind him I just didn’t feel like being lead at 1:00am.
We left on the 28th. 43 degrees, heat off except seat heaters. 65-70mph, little or no wind. I think we were at 2.0mi/kwh. Stock 20” wheels/tires 40 psi.
I think we could make Melissa as we leave at 98%, but with the dogs it’s a bit risky and I don’t really trust the Lightning in the 10s of...
Yes Dennison. Always. I don’t DCFC in OK anymore. 35 to Dallas, 75/69 to Tulsa. I park on the curb across from the first cabinet. We were lucky on the way up as they were all in use except that first one. Without it Francis CCS takes at least an hour or two more because their chargers are slow...
All I know is that this is what I see when I pull into a new Tesla Supercharger site. That’s 68 stalls in Temple. 20 or so were V4. All I checked had adapters (had to move from the V4 because Fordpass did not work and the V4 cabinets did not have lables). I helped a BMW and a Hyundai figure...
There were 3 Tesla superchargers we could have stopped at if needed along the way that would have been more convenient. Apple maps is choosing junk out of the way charging stops on top of the fact that they are not needed.
I think the Hands Free was showing the entire time. I wish I had made a video, but between my wife telling me I was leaving too much space and me checking the setting to see if anything could be off I gave up messing with it.
10 degrees and a headwind is a puck factor right there. I look at the given range and assume it’s using 2.3 mi/kwh and do the percentage in my head based on what my trip mi/kwh is showing. Definitely not new user friendly but works for me.
Should Bluecruise work in stop and go traffic? I tried several times on our Thanksgiving trip when the I35 was stop and go and every time I tried it ended up leaving 10-15 car lengths in front of me when I felt it should have only been 2-3 (I had distance set to one bar). I ended up not using it...
Is there a setting in Carplay navigation to remove all charging stops?
On our trip leg from Waco to Denison we had charged to 80% and had 220 miles of range and the destination was 160 miles. The navigation was adding a charging stop inbetween and once you start the navigation you can’t zoom out...
Maybe it’s me but I find it annoying that Ford can’t set the electronic brake when I put the truck in Park. If I forget or am slow pulling the electronic brake the truck rocks back and forth or rolls forward an inch. It’s sloppy. There are tons of these things. If you haven’t owned a Telsa you...
I used this one in Robstown, TX to charge my Tesla, but it released the adapter when I used the “charge my non Tesla” in the app. It says you need the adapter in the app, but here it is. How could they possibly disable the adapter?
I did not inspect the pins, so maybe it’s a dummy one, but...
